Guns Listing ID: 433044
For sale is a Colt Single Action Frontier Scout. UNFIRED. beautiful revolver with the colt wooden box. Red colt logo inside on top and colt on the outside top. This revolver has SN ending in K.
The Colt Single Action Frontier Scout 22LR had thirteen long years of fun. The revolver was introduced in 1957 and boasted manufacturing numbers of over 350,000. What changed over that thirteen-year period?
Frontier Scout (Q or F Serial Number Suffix) 1957-1970: These came in cardboard boxes with wood grain pasted over them with a black or gold colt logo on top. On the end of the lid of the box it would read “Colt’s Single Action Frontier Scout” and then would list the caliber and barrel length. The frame finishes were blued, silver alloy, or duotone. That bright silver alloy frame was discontinued in 1961. Barrel lengths were 4 3/4? or the Buntline 9 1/2? which was only offered in a blued finish. They were introduced in 22 long rifle and later in 1960 22WMR models were available. In 1964 convertible cylinders became available. Approximately 246,000 were manufactured.
Frontier Scout (K Serial Number Suffix) 1960-1970: This variation promoted a change in the box. The box was still cardboard and wood-grained but was lighter in color. It had a black colt logo and would say “Frontier Scout Revolver” and sometimes would mention the addition of a “Dual Cylinder.” These revolvers apparently were made with a different alloy frame than the Q or F serial number suffix revolvers. It was manufactured using Zamak instead of aluminum and the change in alloy most likely had something to do with the overall cost even though nickel plating aluminum is not just common, it is popular. These revolvers only had walnut grips and were 6 ounces heavier than the aluminum Q or F serial number suffix revolvers. Approximately 44,000 were manufactured.
Frontier Scout ’62 (P Serial Number Suffix) 1962-1970: Called the “Frontier Scout ’62” because of its introduction in 1962. These initially were offered in the same box as the K suffix revolvers but later in a clever marketing campaign, the boxes were changed entirely. The new ’62 boxes had orange and white contrasts with a black colt logo and small depictions of cowboys using SAA revolvers. The top left corner in all caps reads “NEW” and in the center of the box it says “FRONTIER SCOUT ’62.” These were made from the same Zamak alloy but were blued and only had simulation stag horn grips called Staglite grips. Approximately 68,000 were manufactured.
