Description: DOCUMENTED AND IDENTIFIED EL PASO, TEXAS SHIPPED COLT BISLEY, .45 COLT CALIBER REVOLVER, 4 3/4", #284XXX, SHIPPED 1906. I know it's a cliché, but this is one I wish could talk! The Colt letter verifies the caliber, barrel length, blue finish etc. (grips not listed), as being shipped to Krakauer, Zork & Moye Co., El Paso, Texas on October 19, 1906 in an order of 7 revolvers. Many of these Colts sold through this company were purchased by Mexican Nationals. In fact, some of their ledgers still exist and they wrote the names/serial numbers of Colts they sold. In the ledger some names are simply noted as "Mexican." This one is listed in their records as being sold in 1907 to H. Mohr, who I believe was a doctor in the area who purchased a large number of firearms from Krakauer, Zork & Moye Co. Who he was supplying or selling guns to requires some more research. (A photo copy of the page listing this gun by serial number and purchaser from Krakauer, Zork K& Moye is included). The Mexican Revolution began in 1910 and ended in 1920. Old photos show loads of Winchesters and Colts being used in this bloody affair. This Bisley in .45 Colt chambering was obviously somebody's every day carry gun. The grips fit very well and are worn about smooth except for a very worn oval Colt in the top of each hard rubber grip with a small amount of checkering at the very top edge. The metal surfaces are a smooth gray/brown with much typical frontier holster wear on the left side where metal is actually worn away at the muzzle and "Bisley Model" markings are nearly obliterated. Correct two line barrel address on top of barrel and caliber marking on the side is good. Frame patent dates are also good. Screw heads are fine and the action is also fine. Looks like the front sight has been slightly filed, but looks good. the bore was very dark when I got this one. I ran a few oily patches through it followed by a brass brush and loads of black gunk came out. Bore is fairly bright with fine rifling and will probably clean out much better with some additional diligent scrubbing. Matching serial numbers. This one comes with the kind of Colt letter and history collectors love to see! Loads of Tex-Mex history in this one! Great used, but never over-cleaned appearance.
