Description
Presenting a truly unique find: the rare and Desirable Documented Colt Factory Collection Prototype MK III J-Frame Double Action Revolver, Serial X9704 with Box and Factory Letter. This is a rare factory prototype of an unknown Mark III series Colt revolver, a piece that was never produced and is now available for your collection.
This unique revolver, as detailed in the factory letter, is chambered in .357 Magnum, has a 4-inch heavyweight barrel, polished stainless finish, checkered walnut wraparound grips, and a wide spur hammer, and was shipped without markings on October 16, 2008.
The letter further remarks that the revolver was not just any prototype but an experimental one kept by the Colt factory. The original label was a yellow card (not included) marked “Delta,” which is believed to have been what the model would have been named had it been released. It even comes in a two-piece Colt “woodgrain” box.
