COLT SAA 7 1/2 INCH BARREL SOLID OAK PRESENTATION CASE FROM THE COLT GUN SHOP 1978 ORIGINAL BRASS DECORATED KEY STUNNING CONDITION
Description: Solid oak presentation case for a Colt SAA revolver with 7 1/2 inch barrel ordered directly from the Colt Gun Shop in Hartford.,CT. in 1978. This particular case is in an immaculate, pristine, brand new condition with the original brass decorated key. The construction is flawless while the original vivid red lining depicting the actual imprint of a SAA revolver has retained its original appearance, look and coloring,(I had to send my gun to the shop to get an absolute perfect fit back then as this presentation case was made after the purchase of such gun with ivory grips). The case/box is free of any scuff marks, scratches, handling, or the slightest dust particles inside it or at the bottom of the case (see picture # 11). The box is exactly today as it was received in 1978. From another era-a time capsule! For the discriminating Colt collector, it will makes for a fantastic acquisition for your revered Colt SAA handgun. Size is : 16-1/4" X 9-3/8" X 3". Thanks for looking. Price is firm. I do not engage in any type of trade and will appreciate if you do not ask. Special Notice : Also due to theft when shipping to a P.O.Box I no longer ship to such. Therefore if you have a P.O.Box, please provide a current street address. Thank you very much. The following was sent by a fellow member named John: HOW DO YOU TELL ITS A ACTUAL COLT CASE...DOES NOT SAY COLT,AND ALL I HAVE SEEN SAY COLT FROM THE FACTORY. THANX JOHN Hello and good day John: Back in 1976 I bought from an authorized Colt dealer in NYC located in Broome Street a Colt SAA with regular grips. About a year later I went back to the dealer and asked if I could have ivory grips installed. He said yes, but he will have to send it to the Colt Gun Shop as I am not allowed to send guns over state lines since I am a collector, in order to have this done which I did. In early 1978. I got the custom-made presentation oak back. I also bought from this dealer a Buntline Special with a 12" barrel which came in a walnut presentation case which I still have. It was a gun made in commemoration of Ned Buntline Special and again no, the box isn't marked as well. see pictures . I had to get rid of my guns when I got married as my spouse to be said " No guns in the house" so I kept the case that was unfortunately damaged when I relentlessly waited too long to get rid of the guns.... this explain why the interior of such has been destroyed and removed. So It is incorrect to say that all boxes/cases were marked. I vividly recall having a book about all Colt Commemorative being published, it clearly showed that many of these Commemorative Colt Firearms came directly from the Colt Factory boxed...... but some did not have the Colt write up on them and the Ned Buntline Special was one of them. Please see pictures # 11 and # 12 that clearly shows that even though this Colt Special Buntline manufactured by Colt at the Colt factory does NOT show any symbol or the Colt Company logo on top of the presentation walnut case. This large case does NOT come with the one that is listed . I trust my answer meets with your approval. I remain at your disposition if further info are needed. MY reply to Mr. John of Lansing,MI...... On Sunday, April 14, 2019 I came across a listing for the exact same Ned Buntline I had decades ago... presentation case is NOT marked as I stated in my listing! See what's left of the case I had before it was destroyed by my ex-spouse..... See pictures # 14 and # 15! SOLD |
