Description:
Sold Pending Funds - RARE KING GUNSIGHT COMPANY EXAMPLE  in .22 LR!  1936 King Super Target Colt Official Police 22 with Jeweled Hammer, Trigger and Main Spring with custom hand filed target Sanderson stocks.  The Colt Collectors Association’s publication, The Rampant Colt is currently working on a feature article on King. This Official Police received the fabled King treatment with the King Super Target ventilated rib including mirrored front sight, and some beautiful machine jeweling on the hammer, trigger, and main spring.   The first ventilated rib for Colt -  a concept that Colt eventually took up and used for the Python years later.  Beautiful hand checkered Sanderson American black walnut target stocks with the coveted thumb rest.  This was in a special 1-gun shipment as recorded in the included factory letter.
This target gun exhibits all of the details, fit and finish that made the Colt Pre-War double action renowned for their build and accuracy.  The action is crisp, the lock up is tight, the bolt drops ½ way into the grooves on all 6, endshake is absent, and the bore has strong rifling and a 9/10 surface.  The original factory finish has evidence of careful usage and collector type markings associated with a well-cared for 85 year old firearm along with finish thinning and light high edge wear.  Stampings and letterings are all very crisp. 
Please view the photos here for the purpose of evaluating the condition for yourself.  Prop rod not included in sale.  This item qualifies as a C&R.

Shipping & insurance by FedEx is $45 to lower 48 states.
*As this is a C&R, I am opening it up to buyers from California who utilize an 01FFL who is receptive to receiving it. All such bids will acknowledge to assume any additional transfer/shipping costs on my end.

Currently, I am not collecting any taxes
