About Us: I have collected interesting firearms for about 60 years. Now I feel that it is time to start selling a few things. All firearms transactions will be handled by a local Gun shop who will follow all firearms laws. All firearms purchased will be shipped by them to your F.F.L. I do my best to price my items fairly. If you see something that you are interested in, and you think that my price is out of line, please make an offer. I don't have much room for negotiation, but I will work with you if I can. I do not have many items to sell. Please keep checking my items and I will try to add regularly to my listings. I hope to find good homes for these items that are special to me. Please read descriptions and terms, I will endeavor to be accurate.
Description:
All Original COLT New Service Revolver, Early First Model chambered in .45 (Long) Colt, made on 1900. That's right, this one is 125 years old and is all original. I have shot 50 rounds of ammo through it and it shoots great. The sights are on target, at least for me, and I found it to be smooth and accurate. It is in 45 Colt but it has enough heft to mitigate recoil nicely. This is a very early First Generation one with the Flat cylinder latch and a non-tapered 5 1/2" barrel. It is 3rd year production. The serial number is 4321 so you can easily memorize it. The grips are original with no chips or cracks and show normal wear. The metal finish is very good, about 50-60% according to photos in The Blue Book. It has the original lanyard ring intact. All of the markings are clear and sharp. There is a number, 613, stamped into the left side of the barrel indicating that this revolver had a special use. It could be a police dept number, or possibly a private security firm. I do not have a Factory Letter on this one.
This is a large revolver that is fun to shoot and has some real character. It feels great to just hold it in your hands. It is collectable, but not too nice to use. Please peruse the photos and contact me with questions. The ammo in the photos is not included, it is there to impress the viewer. Thank you for looking!

SAFETY WARNING- Buyer is solely responsible for determining that a used gun is safe to shoot. The firearms offered may or may not have been test fired, and some have been only visually inspected. It is a requirement that every used firearm is inspected by a qualified gunsmith before firing. The buyer agrees to hold seller harmless against damages, injury, or death caused by defective merchandise.
RETURN POLICY- All firearms come with a 3-day non firing, no-tinkering with (turning screws, taking apart, removing parts, scoping. firing, cleaning or altering in any way) inspection/return privilege.
