Description:
This Colt was produced in 1914. The factory letter states that this pistol was sent to Montgomery Ward and Co. at Kansas City Missouri on November 17th, 1914. There were two guns in that shipment. It now has a 1935 era new barrel and the slide replaced. The slide is serial numbered to the frame inside the firing pin housing. This is Colt's style of serial number placement that was done starting in 1937. The Colt also has an asterisk stamped on the bottom surface of the slide which indicates Colt rework or repair. This Colt as it stands today, has the Original Colt high polish reblue which would rate a 99% condition. The barrel is as new showing no sign of being shot. The hammer is the correct hammer for 1914. The magazine is a military two tone magazine having the correct lanyard staple on the bottom floor plate. The style of this magazine is correct for 1914 pistols. The grips are reproduction copies of the correct grips for this pistol. This is a real pretty pistol that shows well. The good thing that still allows this pistol to be collectable is the fact that Colt did the correct repairs and refinish. This pistol shows no sign of being used after the pistol was sent back from repairs. I do feel that this Colt has real collector value for a collector due to it's condition and the fact that Colt was the one that did the work to restore this pistol to 1914 standard.
