There were however only three known front sight hoods made by the factory. No rifle was commercially shipped from the factory with a factory original sight hood. The slot for the front sight hood was deleted in 1968 and has not appeared on any commercially produced rifles since then''.

The hood has toned to a smooth plum patina. The action retains about 98% original blue with the loss due to light contact wear on the lever release. The hand-fitted breechblock is numbered to the gun. The checkered walnut pistolgrip buttstock rates excellent with a few light handling marks and the semi-beavertail forearm with early wraparound checkering rates excellent as well with perhaps a minor light blemish not worth the mention if it was not for the condition of this arm.

Rifle is also equipped with a folding rear sight on quarter rib. A great opportunity to obtain an excellent, extremely rare No.1 with special front sight not offered to the public.

The pistol is marked with ''(Eagle) / N'' proofs and standard slide markings with Walther banner, Zella-Mehlis address and model designation. The left side frame is stamped with an ''(Eagle) C'' police acceptance mark; it appears to have been double-stamped but remains quite crisp. The checkered mottled brown synthetic grip with Walther banners remains in very good condition displaying the usual mild warping around the edges, a tiny chip at the top left edge and a spot of discoloration on the right side. The warping at the top edge of the left side slightly impedes the full 60-degree rotation of the safety but the decocker functions without trouble. The action otherwise seems to function well mechanically, the slide is appropriately scratch-numbered to the frame on its interior and one magazine with synthetic mottled brown base is included. The magazine shows some scattered light pitting along the body along with a few hairline cracks along the base. This pistol falls squarely within the second variation police contract serial number range. A very attractive and desirable police PPK. (139130-1) {C&R}

serial #4478, 38 CF, 7 1/2'' round barrel with an about very good bore showing scattered light oxidation and strong rifling throughout.

The 1871 and 1872 patent dates are quite crisp and are appropriately stamped over the ''COLTS PATENT'' on the left side frame, the underside of the barrel is clearly marked ''R. W. M. (Anchor).'' and ''U.S.N.'' is stamped on the butt. The brass backstrap and triggerguard are mostly a goldenrod patina showing some scattered minor dings and handling marks. The smooth one-piece walnut grip is un-numbered and remains in very good plus condition showing a bit of older added varnish over small dings and handling marks. The wedge is un-numbered and missing its spring, the cylinder is numbered ''61894'' on the exterior but re-stamped to match on the back surface and the remaining parts are also matching. The action functions crisply with solid timing and lockup. A very good example of these rather scarce Navy conversions. (138737-154) {ANTIQUE} [Dr. Louis C. March Jr. Collection]

U.S. Model 1911 Semi-Auto Pistol by Colt

Lot #1131 (Sale Order 132 of 805)

serial #ATF63500.126, 45 ACP, 5'' Colt barrel with an oxidized and pitted bore. At some point the serial number and markings showing U.S. ownership were removed and a new serial number assigned by the A.T.F. but the factory slide markings and Major Walter G. Penfield's inspection mark remain strong to crisp. The metal surfaces were non-factory re-blued with about 99% remaining showing a few light assembly and handling marks plus old pitting under the new finish. The grips are post WWII checkered synthetic government replacement grips with large reinforcing ring and ribbed back. A number of features indicate that this gun was probably manufactured in 1913 and falls between serial number 25,000 and 62,000 but some parts could have been changed during the refurbish which could skew this. The ''H'' of Francis L. Hosmer on the barrel hood and frame are a matching non-serif font of that time period and the barrel has the ''H'' and ''P'' on the chamber. All the parts are correct for that period of manufacture with several notable features such as ''U'' notch round-top rear sight, long sharp legs on the recoil spring guide and square detent hole in the recoil spring plug. No magazine is provided. One can only speculate if this gun was originally ''liberated'' by some G.I. or someone else and it would make an interesting 1911 collectible. (88873-291) {C&R}

It features a flared shadowline cheekpiece with semi-rollover Monte Carlo and coarse checkering on the grip panels and forend, each nicely bordered.

The left side of the butt, to the rear of the cheekpiece shows the St. Hubertus Hart with crucifix between his antlers, below these depictions is a small checkered panel along the toeline, this accented by a dual carved rib around the periphery of the butt with a couple small swirls of scroll.

Although this revolver is not specifically listed in the Springfield Research Service, numbers close both before and after this example are shown as being issued to the 13th Missouri Volunteer Cavalry in 1865. This salty martial revolver certainly has a lot of character. (139045-8) {ANTIQUE}

Really a very good example of these iconic Russian swords with some even more interesting history. (139067-1)

Lot #1254 (Sale Order 255 of 805)

.54 cal, 21'' barrel with a mostly bright very good plus bore showing some fine oxidation scattered throughout and strong rifling.

The replacement checkered walnut grips remain in very good plus condition showing a few scattered dings, handling marks and they are not quite perfectly fitted to the frame.

Japanese Type 99 Bolt Action Rifle by Toyo Kogyo with Battle Damage and Capture Paper

Lot #1484 (Sale Order 485 of 805)

serial #41433, 7.7 Arisaka, 25 1/2'' barrel with a bright bore showing a 5/8'' dent from battle damage about 7'' from the muzzle on the right side. The metal surfaces of this 31st series rifle retain perhaps 70% original blue with overall toning to gray-brown patina and scattered pinprick pitting. All of the markings are crisp and clear and the chrysanthemum is completely intact and unmolested. The smooth pistolgrip Asian hardwood stock and handguard remain in about very good condition showing a number of gouges from shrapnel damage along the right side, scattered moderate dings and an unrepaired duffel cut under the rear band. There are clear kanji stamps along the toe line and the left side is neatly engraved with the name ''Fomuk''. The engraving was certainly done long ago as it has darkened from the years in a similar manner as the dings along the stock. The cleaning rod, monopod and anti-aircraft sights are all intact, the nosecap is un-numbered and all of the bolt parts are matching except the dust cover numbered ''987''. There is a typed memo-style capture paper included dated 24 October, 1944 from Company D Topographic Headquarters & Service Battalion, III Amphibious Corps stating that Sgt. Walter Fomuk may bring back a ''Captured Japanese Rifle #41433'' and an ''Ammunition Pouch'' and is signed on the bottom by B. W. Munger. Research confirms that Walter Fomuk, a New York native born in 1924, served in the U.S. Marine Corps and passed away in 2002. The III Marine Amphibious Corps took part in many of the major battles of the Pacific Theater including the invasions of Saipan, Tinian, Iwo Jima and Okinawa. The battle damage and intact chrysanthemum are obviously strong indicators of a battlefield pickup and due to the bore obstruction no thought should be given to the firing of this arm. This rifle would make an excellent addition to any World War Two collection. (139073-99) {C&R}

The grip is embellished with lovely silver wire inlay although unfortunately most of it has been lost with a few sprigs, small leaves and a clover present on the backstrap and left side along with a blank monogram plate. The action is functional but the mainspring is rather weak. No doubt this pistol was quite attractive back in the day; it still has plenty of character. (138737-483) {ANTIQUE} [Dr. Louis C.

The barrel is numbered to the frame, lockup is a little loose and the extractor is present but not functional. The hammer functions well and the original sights are intact.

The exterior is painted black and the interior dark green and the interior cutouts are rather crude but effective and there are spaces for ammunition and cleaning supplies. A very good example of the earliest model Stevens light frame pocket rifle with a rather endearing case. (139053-10) {ANTIQUE} [Paul D. Sones Collection]
