Description
Made in a short production run of roughly 2,500 pieces around 1987, this commemorative revolver isn’t just another collector’s gun—it’s a respectful nod to General George S. Patton, one of the most iconic and bold military leaders in American history. Modeled after the classic Single Action Army revolver Patton famously wore on his hip, it carries the spirit of a man who didn’t just lead troops—he led with personality.
What immediately grabs your eye is the engraving—about 75% of the surface is covered in ornate floral scrollwork, expertly done and beautifully balanced by a full silver-plated finish. It doesn’t scream for attention, but it definitely turns heads. The grips, though simple and smooth, are more than just functional. They carry meaningful touches: medallions with the dates “1885/1945,” marking Patton’s birth and the end of his military service. And if you’re wondering about the initials “DLS” and “GSP” etched into the grips—those aren’t random. They reference key individuals in Patton’s life, adding a subtle personal layer to the story.
There’s also a lanyard loop on the butt—not just for show. It’s a small but thoughtful nod to the revolver’s military inspiration. It’s one of those little features that says, “Yes, this is art—but it’s still a sidearm.”
For enthusiasts, this isn’t just a firearm. It’s a story in steel and silver—part tribute, part time capsule. Whether it anchors a display case or gets passed down as an heirloom, the Patton Commemorative Revolver blends American grit with masterful craftsmanship. It’s rare. It’s meaningful. And for the right collector, it’s priceless.
