Description

Some guns tell a story. This one whispers the beginnings of a legend.

This Colt Peacemaker Prototype, chambered in .22LR and marked with the elusive serial “X64,” isn’t just a rare firearm—it’s a backstage pass to the making of one of America’s most iconic revolvers. Long before it earned the title “the gun that won the West,” the Peacemaker went through trials, tweaks, and experimentation. And this prototype? It’s part of that journey.

You know the look—classic Colt silhouette, sturdy frame, timeless design. But this one’s scaled back in caliber, firing .22LR instead of the full-bore cartridges that thundered through the Wild West. That shift suggests it may have been tailored for training, target work, or simply testing the waters for broader applications. It’s not just a design choice; it’s a hint at how Colt thought about versatility and market potential.

What immediately catches the eye, though, is the finish—polished silver that glows like it’s holding onto a sliver of frontier sunlight. The grip work is equally striking, ornate, elegant, and far from utilitarian. This wasn’t just built to fire; it was built to impress.

Mechanically, it holds true to the Peacemaker DNA—simple, solid, and dependable. But there are whispers of deviation, subtle design explorations Colt was playing with at the time. And that’s what makes prototypes so fascinating—they’re bridges between idea and icon.

For collectors, this isn’t just a firearm. It’s a conversation starter, a showpiece, and a tangible connection to the roots of American firearms development. Whether you’re captivated by Old West lore, early Colt innovation, or just appreciate a revolver that walks the line between tool and art, this Peacemaker prototype delivers on every front.

Call it what you want—a rarity, a gem, a relic. But one thing’s certain: there’s nothing else quite like it.
