Description:
TEXAS SHIPPED NEW SERVICE TARGET .45 COLT REVOLVER, #307XXX, MADE 1923. This is a fine and interesting Colt. The New Service Flattop Target revolver was Colt's top-of-the-line revolver at the time. Fit and finish was superb and each had a checkered back strap and trigger as well as fancy fleur-de-lis checkered walnut grips. This example is in excellent condition inside and out. It retains fine deep blue overall with only some normal holster wear to each side of the muzzle and blue wear on the bottom of the trigger guard and just forward on the bottom of the frame- blue appears thinning/mixing gray-brown in this small area. All excellent and sharp markings, nice fire blue on the hammer back and trigger sides, light edge wear to the cylinder and a touch of blue wear on the back strap hump above the checkerred portion. Fine deep-dish medallion grips, lanyard ring intact, extremely tight action with no cylinder play, bright exc. bore. Colt letter indicates this one as described was sold to L. E. polhemus and shipped to Krahauer, Zork, and Moye Company, El paso, Texas on February 9, 1923. This was still a "wild west" border town at this time. Some research might turn up something interesting on L. E. Polhemus. A fine rare Colt with a great factory letter and history.
