Description
This 3rd Gen Colt Single Action Army Revolver, produced in 2001 exclusively for Lew Horton Distributors, is a paragon of classic gunsmithing artistry combined with modern manufacturing precision. The revolver is intricately adorned with Class “C” scrollwork, expertly etched into a punch-dot textured background. This ornate detailing is further enhanced by a distinctively shaped bird’s head grip frame, elegantly outfitted with lustrous pearl grips, adding an element of luxury and refinement.
The 3rd Gen Colt Single Action Army Revolver is accompanied by its original shipping box, which protects the firearm and provides a detailed record of its specifications. This includes the dimensions of the barrel, the stunning blue and case-hardened finish that covers the revolver, the skilled “C” grade engraving, and the inclusion of the elegant pearl grips. The packaging is completed with the iconic Colt blue box, synonymous with the brand’s rich heritage and commitment to quality.
In terms of condition, the revolver is nearly pristine, maintaining 99% of its original vibrant blue finish and case colors. It shows only minimal signs of handling, which are hardly noticeable.
