Colt, O.M. National Match Grade, Single Action Only, Consecutive Pair: 924786 & 924787
Description:
This listing is for a Consecutive serial numbered PAIR of Colt Officers Model Match Revolvers. They are National Match Grade and furnished with “Short Actions”. To clarify, pulling the trigger, as in double action mode, indexes the cylinder but does not move the hammer. Cocking the hammer, as in single action mode, indexes the cylinder as you would expect. This disconnect between single and double action allows the trigger to be tuned to National Match standards.
This pair of National Match revolvers were 2 of a 3 gun shipment from Colt to Fort George Meade MD on Jan 15, 1960. Each revolver is accompanied by a Colt History letter. SN 924786 was subsequently shipped from Letterkenny Army Depot in Chambersburg and is accompanied by the shipping box as can be seen in one of the photos.
I applied a Pink sticker to revolver 924786 for purpose of photo identification. The pieces are very closely matched in condition. Bores are excellent, and the actions / trigger is about as perfect as possible. The single action pull is very lite and crisp. Each gun has a slight bit of wear to the muzzle edges from resting in a box otherwise they are 99% with just a few tiny handling marks. 924786 appears to be shot very little judging from the bolster, 787 shows just a bit more wear from target history. Neither grip is numbered to the gun which is correct for the era.
These Colt Officers Model Match revolvers are an excellent investment grade collectable. With the added Military Providence, the National Match features, “short action” and consecutive pair status they are in a whole new league. AND…Someone has the Third consecutive SN from this shipment. These Colts are an investment grade firearm that will certainly increase in value. Serial Numbers 924786 and 924787, Cal. .38 Spl. w/ 6” Barrel. C&R or FFL Req’d.
