WHAT’S INCLUDED: REVOLVER, FACTORY PRESENTATION CASE
This Colt Civil War Centennial Model is a true collector-grade revolver, preserved in unfired condition and housed in its original presentation case. Built in 1961 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Civil War, this piece blends Colt’s iconic Frontier Scout design with historical significance. The 6-inch barrel and classic single-action configuration deliver timeless lines and balance. This is not just a firearm—it’s a pristine artifact from Colt’s golden commemorative era.
While chambered in .22 Short and fully capable on the range, this revolver’s real strength lies in its untouched, unfired condition. The action remains factory crisp, with a clean single-action break that reflects Colt’s traditional craftsmanship. Fixed sights maintain authenticity while still offering practical usability. It’s a piece that could be shot—but collectors know better.
In the hand, the Colt “Q” frame feels light, balanced, and refined, with a classic plow-handle grip that naturally aligns with the shooter. The smooth wood grips pair perfectly with the brass frame, giving it both visual warmth and period-correct styling. The proportions are elegant and unmistakably Colt. It handles like a revolver from another era—because it is.
Chambered in .22 Short, this revolver is mechanically simple, reliable, and historically appropriate for its design lineage. The single-action system is as dependable as it gets, requiring nothing more than proper handling and appreciation. This is a firearm that represents tradition, not tactical application. Confidence here comes from craftsmanship and preservation.
Visually, this revolver is a standout—deep blued steel paired with a polished brass frame and commemorative markings creates undeniable display appeal. The unfired condition combined with the factory presentation case places it firmly in collector territory. These Centennial Colts are sought after, and condition is everything—this one delivers. For the serious collector, this is the kind of piece that doesn’t come around often.
