High Estimate1500
serial #310791, 25 ACP, 2 1/8" barrel with a very good bore showing strong rifling, frosting and a few small pinprick pits. This little pistol remains in beautiful condition retaining nearly 98% original nickel with some light scratches, handling marks, a couple of tiny dings on the left side of the slide and a few small flakes and imperfections here and there. The factory mother-of-pearl grips with silver Rampant Colt medallions remain in excellent condition with a few minor handling marks and one or two tiny almost imperceptible cracks around the edges. Included are one original nickel-plated magazine and a period soft suede leather purse holster lined with a brownish green felt. It remains in very good condition with a few minor handling marks, a small tear on the left side and some tarnishing of the fixtures. A Colt factory letter is also included with this pistol and indicates it was shipped on January 20, 1923 in a twenty gun shipment to the Shapleigh Hardware Company of St. Louis, Missouri. This pistol remains a really superb example for the Colt collector. (138524-8) {C&R}

GUIDELINES FOR FIREARM PURCHASES
• All Federal, State and Local firearms laws will be observed. FFL holders may take possession of any firearm on day of sale when they present a signed copy of their Federal Firearms License. New Hampshire residents over the age of 21 may take possession of any firearm on day of sale providing the proper paperwork is filled out and the transfer has been approved either through the NH State Police or the FBI NICS System. While most NICS and State approvals are immediate, approvals could take up to 3 days.

Buyer is responsible for any and all shipping charges and all items must be paid for on day of sale.
