Extremely Rare, Colt Single Action Flattop Target .22/c. Revolver In Nickel Finish With Factory Letter. 1 Of 100 Made! DOM 1889

AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AT OUR ON-LINE STORE


"The Single Action Flattop Target revolvers were developed by Colt as a variation of their popular Single Action Army with a flat top frame and adjustable front and rear sights to satisfy the needs of target shooters, but there was evidently not much demand for Colt's single actions in this caliber despite the popularity of .22 rimfire with target shooters. Thus, these are extremely rare and highly sought after by collectors. A "Flattop Target Model" was listed in Colt's catalogs from 1890 to 1898.
According to "The 36 Calibers of the Colt Single Action Army" by David M. Brown and "The Book of Colt Firearms" by R.L. Wilson, fewer than 100 First Generation Colt Single Action Army Flattop Target revolvers were chambered for .22 rimfire ammunition.
This highly desirable firearm has a serial number 128470 and was shipped to Chicago in 1889 as a 3 gun shipment of similar type. I have included a link to a Rock Island of a similar Colt Single Action Flattop serial number 128464, in blue finish, that sold on 8-27-2022 for 76,375.
