(N) ATTRACTIVE GERMAN MP-40 MACHINE GUN ON REGISTERED AUTOMATIC WEAPONS COMPANY TUBE (FULLY TRANSFER

Lot #2021 (Sale Order 21 of 667)

This example of the iconic German MP-40 machine gun exhibits some attractive features such as having light brown Bakelite lower assembly. Also immediately noticeable is the MP-38 magazine housing which has a round hole cut out in both sides in order to reduce the overall weight of the weapon.

It was and remains a highly prized souvenir of American soldiers and is also one of the most popular machine guns to take to the range for the shooting enthusiast. Relatively slow firing, easy to control, comfortable, and utilizes readily available ammunition, and in the rare instance if parts are needed they are also pretty much available. This model also has the great benefit of being easy to field strip and clean. It is one of the best entry level machine guns, and as a full-auto only machine gun it can be transferred into States such as Connecticut.

(N) ORIGINAL VETERAN BRING-BACK JAPANESE TYPE 96 MACHINE GUN (CURIO & RELIC).

Lot #2041 (Sale Order 40 of 667)

Extremely fine specimen of the Japanese Type 96 light machine gun as manufactured by Kokura in 1939, August. Visible serial numbers appear matching on barrel, receiver, lower assembly, charging handle, dust cover, and buffer, as well as barrel latch and safety. Accessories include one original 30 round magazine and an original 2.5x13 scope manufactured by Toko, as well as spare barrel serial number 40690 manufactured in 1940, August; bayonet and rifleman's leather belt pouch. Bipod and muzzle cover also present. The Japanese Type 96 machine gun bears a striking resemblance to the ZB26 machine gun. It fires an open bolt and was an effective full auto only automatic rifle. With practiced trigger control, the firer can squeeze off individual shots. The adjustable gas port was intended to defeat the problem of fouling, which it did, but soldiers also found that it could adjust the rate of fire. This model was preferred over the Type 11, which required oiling of the cartridges as they passed through the feed hopper. Japanese soldiers even preferred it over the later Type 99 Model due to its lighter recoil and convenience of removing the barrel by way of a lever. American veterans this cataloger has spoken to in past years stated "Wish our BAR had a 30 round magazine like the Jap Nambu machine guns did". CONDITION: Overall appearance and finish is fine to very fine as brought back by veteran William H. Woodin from Burma who related that he acquired it in trade for a carton of cigarettes at the time. Very fine original smooth blue finish on metal parts with some wear at points turning to a grey patina at the high edges, and starting to fade to brown in some areas; lower assembly's metal furnishings, particularly the buttplate turning a brown patina. Barrel in gun has shiny lands, turning dark in the grooves. Bolt face is very fine. Mechanics are fine. Spare barrel bore somewhat darker but with distinct rifling. Optics are clear but could use a cleaning. Bayonet is fine. Belt pouch extremely fine leather with one strap parted and not present, and the belt straps somewhat chewed at the ends, probably by some rodent, yet still serviceable. It is a rare occurrence when a matching veteran bring-back such as this example surfaces. Knowing where and how this specimen was acquired only enhances the mystique of this machine gun.

A fine representative specimen of the Japanese Type 89 grenade discharger with Nagoya Arsenal markings visible below serial number. Visible numbers are matching. Trigger slot dust cover intact and serviceable. Type 89 grenade discharger was a highly portable and effective weapon utilized by the Japanese in World War II.

The Japanese made effective use of this weapon as both in indirect but more often a hasty direct fire weapon. The range is adjustable by turning a knurled adjustment knob at the right side. Many American soldiers wished the United States had provided something similar to them. U.S. soldiers took to using our own 60mm mortar in a like manner. Please note that original inert projectiles will be offered separately in a future Morphy's auction as part of an excellent and exciting offering of the grenade collection of noted cartridge collector William H. Woodin.

Lot #2052 (Sale Order 51 of 667)

Considered the best and finest made AK-type rifle ever produced, the Valmet line was the first civilian AK Model imported into this country from Finland.

(C) NEAR NEW WINCHESTER MODEL 1897 WORLD WAR I TRENCH PUMP ACTION SHOTGUN.

Lot #2053 (Sale Order 52 of 667)

According to the book "The Complete Guide to United States Military Combat Shotguns" by Bruce Canfield, the military World War I serial range for trench guns runs from E613000 to E705000, of which this example falls directly in the middle. The finish is a Winchester commercial grade blue. With solid frame, barrel marked "CYL", intertwined "PW" on top of barrel and frame. The slide bar is marked "MODEL 1897 WINCHESTER TRADEMARK REG IN US PAT OFF". Has six rows of ventilating holes in hand guard that is marked "PATENT APPLIED FOR" on right side, which was used early to mid-production. Barrel protrudes beyond hand guard approximately 1/2". Walnut stock has thin wrist, high comb, not fluted or checkered walnut. Buttplate is the Winchester monogram black composite. There is a sling swivel on bottom of butt and another attached to bayonet lug. There are no visible martial markings. According to Canfield, most of the Model 1897 trench guns manufactured under World War I US Government contracts were not stamped with martial markings. This was done late in production. He even comments that martial markings were applied sometime after World War I, and even then only 20% of these weapons were martially marked. Factory research shows serial number applied November 14th, 1917; no other information available. CONDITION: Gun is near new inside and out. While there are a few handling marks and a few minor age freckles, the gun appears virtually unused. Comes with a 1918 dated sling and correct 1917 dated Winchester bayonet. Bayonet has two rivet walnut handles and is stamped "US" with Ordnance bomb and eagle head proof. Arguably one of the finest known World War I trench guns extant. Given the unissued condition of this weapon, it is quite possible it was part of the cache of 74 World War I prosecution Model 1897 trench guns that came to light in 2004, but this serial number is not listed. There are two shotguns No. 671175 and No. 671976 reissued in 1934 to the Shanghai Volunteer Corps. The Richmond Virginia Police Department received these trench guns in 1924 from the Virginia National Guard. They retained the guns for the next 80 years in essentially the same configuration of which they had left the factory. Unquestionably made under military contract, they were never issued to Army units during the war, hence the lack of martial markings. There were also several World War I trench guns without martial marks released from the Aniston Arsenal, several with documentation confirming issuance to specific Army units, proving trench guns were reissued after the war as there were no commercial production Model 1897 trench guns made by Winchester during World War I. All World War I trench guns were made under government contract.

(A) Presentation Plated Henry Model 1860 Lever Action Rifle (1864).

Lot #2057 (Sale Order 56 of 667)

The left side of the frame is engraved "Presented to SARGt Iven L. Bailey Co. C. 51st Regt ILLs. Vols. by his friends of Iroquois Co. ILLs for good conduct as a soldier July 4th 1865". Iven Bailey joined the service as a Corporal and was mustered out as a First Lieutenant, which would indicate this rifle was purchased and inscribed a little too early. The regiment was formed in December of 1861 and fought as a unit until September 1865. They were in numerous battles during this time to include several major bloody theaters of war such as Chickamauga, Georgia in September 1863; Missionary Ridge, Tennessee in November 1863; Kenesaw Mountain, Georgia in June 1864; the Battle of Atlanta from July to September 1864. During the conflict a total of 106 enlisted men were killed, including nine officers. As for the rifle itself, it is a late commercial with an Oliver Winchester "W" stamp on lower tang. The frame was factory nickel plated over brass and is not cut for a rear sight. Full octagon barrel has the folding rear sight with knife blade front sight, full magazine, tube mounted lanyard loop, high mounted left side sling swivel on rear stock, nickel plated brass buttplate, walnut buttstock, case colored hammer, and lever. Serial number 6544 stamped at breech of barrel. Henry's patent barrel address stamped on rear flat. All details taken from the book by Les Quick on Henry rifles: Page 57 shows the larger beveled frame. Page 56 shows the octagon top receiver. Page 63 shows the later large trigger retaining pin. Page 75 shows the later large barrel address stamp. Page 81 shows the straight, rectangular cut in the receiver to accept the early smaller cartridge follower. Page 90, top picture, shows the obtuse angle of stock comb. Page 100 shows the small buttstock cleaning rod hole. Page 107 shows the later style buttplate with pointed heel. Page 113 shows the high mounted left side sling swivel. Page 122, figure D, shows the rear sight with the Type A sliding bar. Rear sight is barrel mounted only. CONDITION: Barrel legends are sharp. Barrel and magazine are basically a smooth, soft, homogeneous patina with some very light age freckling. The frame retains approximately 90% of the silver plated finish with wear on high edges only. Engraving on left side is extremely sharp. Frame screws retain nearly all of their brilliant nitre blue, as does the rear of the bolt. Case colors on hammer and lever have basically patterned out and darkened. Wood to metal fit is excellent. Buttstock is excellent with no cracks or chips, just the usual normal handling marks. Buttplate retains approximately 80% silver plated finish. Fine action. Clean, well defined, and sharp rifling with minimal frosting in grooves. Perfect action. This is an extremely handsome and well cared for presentation rifle. The scenario is familiar: hometown boy makes good, town purchases rifle as a gift four months after war ends, and presents to him at the town 4th of July picnic and celebration where he would have ascended the podium to accept his prize from the proud local townspeople. The day was probably dedicated to him and would have been a source of pride to the entire Bailey family.

(C) EXTREMELEY RARE AND DESIREABLE FACTORY DOCUMENTED DELUXE FACTORY ENGRAVED WINCHESTER MODEL 1905

Lot #2082 (Sale Order 81 of 667)

Of the rarest of all Winchester rifles to obtain by collectors today is a documented 1905 Self-Loading rifle that is engraved or has deluxe configuration. Designed by T.C. Johnson, a Winchester engineer who developed the Model 1903 Self-Loading .22 and introduced in 1905 and manufactured until 1920. Upon introduction these sturdy rifles were quite expensive at $28.00 for standard and $43.00 for fancy or deluxe variations. For this reason the production of these pricey rifles was a mere 31,467 units; of these deluxe or fancy grade examples are rarely every found. We have no recollection of any other documented factory engraved deluxe Model 1905 in .35 Winchester Self-loading caliber to have been sold on the open market. This example, serial number 13927, is chambered for the .35 Winchester Self-Loading cartridge and is accompanied by a factory letter dated June 25th, 1987. The letter indicates the rifle was shipped .35 caliber, fancy pistol grip stock, Lyman rear sight, combination front sight (Beech), targeted point blank to 150 yards, engraved $14.00 stocks carved/checkered No. 5 carved style; received in warehouse November 17th, 1906 and shipped from warehouse November 19th, 1906. The rifle is blue finish with 22" round barrel with scroll engraved chamber and features a platinum band just forward of receiver. The receiver is dual game scene engraved with a vignette of a pair of American pronghorn antelope in a western scenario with evergreens and low laying brush and rocks. The vingnette is surrounded by a maple leaf and scrolling vines with a straight single line border. The left side of the receiver has a large vignette of a pair of running bull caribou surrounded by hardwood trees and grassy forest floor. Outside of vignette is surrounded by a matching maple leaf, scroll and vine motif with a matching single line border. The top of the receiver has intertwined tight scrolls with a wavy rope border at the receiver tops edge. The two piece highly figured American walnut stocks are masterfully checkered with semi Fleur-de-Lis patterns at wrist and forearm. CONDITION: Very good as found. The rifle retains over 80% blued finish on the barrel with areas turning patina. The elegant engraved receiver retains bout 25% vivid blue finish with moderate aged patina. The stocks are very good with slight wear from use with numerous period impressions and minor scratches. A 1-1/2" shrinkage crack is visible at the lower left side of wrist. The factory Winchester hard rubber buttplate is worn but is fully intact. All markings are crisp and legible. The action operates properly. The bore is very good with sharp rifling. An extremely rare example of one of Winchesters lesser known rifles.

(C) ENFIELD PATTERN 1913 TRIALS BOLT ACTION RIFLE.

Lot #2119 (Sale Order 118 of 667)

This is a beautiful example of a scarce early British Pattern 1913 trials rifle in the .276 Enfield caliber. This rifle was manufactured in 1913 with serial number 1176. These rifles were tested after the British decided that the German Mauser rifles employed against them during the Boer War outclassed their current rifles. They were tested in England, Ireland, Egypt, and South Africa. Praise was heaped on the accuracy of the rifle and the aperture sighting system, but the high velocity round and strangely cut finger grooves detracted from the rifle, with parts breakage being quite common. Before the problems could be worked out, the outbreak of World War I forced the British to adopt the Pattern 14 as it was easier to mass produce. Rifle also features one-part wooden pistol grip style stock with finger grooves, two-piece forearm and handguard, aperture sighting system, stamped trigger guard, sighting disk on left side, and blank butt disk. Import stamped on the underside of the barrel. Left side of frame has the Georgius Rex proof, “Crown/A2/E” and “Crown/75/E” proof marks. Bottom of grip on stock also stamped with “Crown/A2/E”. Left side of stock has the original Volley sight and also has the rear peep Volley sight. Heel of stock stamped with an “L” near buttplate. Has sling rings at butt and barrel bands. All visible serial numbers match. CONDITION: This rifle is in very fine condition, retaining virtually all of its arsenal blue finish with losses at high edges and some scattered handling marks. Bolt has some patina at top. Extractor, originally blue, is now largely a mix of soft brown patina. Wood is excellent with no losses, but scattered nicks and bruises from use. Fine action, and a bore with well defined lands and grooves, albeit a little frosted. A rare Enfield Pattern 13 rifle in exceptional condition. According to the serial number, this would be a 1913 manufacture and is not marked for commercial sale. A little over 1,000 manufactured prior to World War I, and the fact they were shipped to South Africa and Egypt makes their survival rate minimal and very few have made it over to America. This one was recently discovered in Europe and exported to the States. In all our research we could only find one example sold in the US in the last ten years. A ridiculously rare gun especially on this side of the pond that's on just about every Enfield collector's wish list and a better example would be difficult, if not impossible to find.

(C) EXTREMELY RARE SPRINGFIELD MODEL 1903 BOLT ACTION CARBINE.

Lot #2127 (Sale Order 126 of 667)

One of the great rarities in Springfield collecting, this carbine may be the only one held in private hands. This rare carbine is made with a 20" tapered round barrel that has the standard front sight with a large “A” stamped where one would usually expect to find the date. There is also a partial “P” proof on the right side of the barrel about mid-point. Barrel crown is standard Springfield contour & has the star gauge mark at the 6:00 position. Barrel, under the upper hand guard, has a series of numbers which are presumed to be drawing numbers. They consist of “21A / 8142A / D28177 / D35498”. These numbers are all hand stamped parallel with the bore. Root of the barrel is fitted with a hand-machined ring that serves as a keeper for the rear end of the short upper hand guard. Front sight is an altered standard Springfield blade; the sheet metal sight cover has been altered with a lower profile & smaller aperture. It is mounted in a walnut stock, 32-1/16" overall length with, straight wrist & grasping groove forestock cut for a barrel band similar to the standard '03 band with a groove but has a side mounted swivel with the screw head downward. Left side of the buttstock is inletted for the standard buttstock swivel. Removal of the swivel base discloses matching oil finish in the cut out. It has a standard parkerized finish over all the metal with milled '03 trigger guard & floorplate. Front end of the trigger guard is stamped with a “5” which corresponds with the last digit of the serial number. Receiver is mounted with a Lyman 48S receiver sight, graduated to 1500 yards, on the long slide. Close examination of the stock leads this cataloger to believe that it was manufactured as it is found, not cut down from a full length '03 stock. There is no evidence of a recess for the stock sling base ever having been cut on the bottom. Accompanied by a copy of the “Report On Experimental Cavalry Carbine Manufactured For The Cavalry Board” dated Dec. 24, 1920 over the signature of Maj. J.S. Hatcher. Rifle is described as having a 20" barrel with short stock and special sling swivels on the left hand side. It further states that the rifle was fitted with a Lyman #48 receiver sight modified to show graduation in yards instead of meters. Another letter on Springfield Armory letterhead dated Nov. 7, 1922 deals with the cost of building 75 of these carbines. Paragraph three states that they have a number of special stocks made up for the 1903 air service rifle whose length is 28-3/16" and it goes on to state that the Cavalry carbine stock was “About 32-1/8” and signed by “T.L. Ames”. Page 83 of The Springfield 1903 Rifles by Brophy has the illustration and description of a 1903 carbine which, in all respects, resembles our carbine. It is noted however, that the illustrated carbine stock was made from a cut down full size stock as the rear sling swivel base cut can be seen in the photographs. Illustrations on p. 84 detail the position & design of the left side swivels along with the modified front sight & front sight cover for the experimental carbine. It also shows the star gauge mark on the muzzle of that carbine. Narrative indicates there were two of them assembled for testing by the cavalry at Fort Riley, Kansas and, although they received favorable reports, they were not produced. CONDITION: Extremely fine, as new. Retains virtually all of its gray/green parkerizing on the metal parts & virtually all of its fine oil finish on the stock with one or two small scratches. Mechanics are crisp, brilliant shiny bore. Barrel Length: 20" Caliber/Bore: .30-06 FFL Status: Curio & Relic Manufacturer: Springfield Model: 1903 Serial Number: 816115Condition: Dimensions:

This would be a nice find if it was simply as is, an all original unaltered 1911 Springfield Model 1903 that has never undergone any updates. It features the original early single bolt wide groove stock, high hump handguard, straight bolt, straight cut left side of stock, early proper rear sight graduated to 2700 yards, barrel dated 3 of 10, and the frame is dated to 1911, which would indicate that the rifle was assembled in 1911 with barrels in stock. All milled parts to include smooth buttplate with trapdoor. But the intriguing aspect of this rifle is that it was issued to the Marine Corps Rifle Squad on board one of America's newest battleships: the U.S.S. Georgia. The U.S.S. Georgia was a Virginia class battleship commissioned September of 1906, when it became a unit of the Atlantic fleet. In June of 1907, during the Jamestown naval review, she suffered a turret accident that took the lives of ten of her crew. In December of the same year, it began the World Cruise of the Great White Fleet, returning in 1909. She participated in operations in troubled Mexico and Haiti during 1914 and was recommissioned in April of 1917, performing escort missions during most of the war. Commissioned April 6th 1917 and for 18 months she operated with the Third Division Battleship Force. For six months after the war, she brought almost 6000 US servicemen home from France. In 1919 the battleship joined the Pacific Fleet at the Panama Canal. She was sold for scrap in 1923. Additionally, aboard the four mainbattleships, U.S.S. Dolphin, Kansas, Georgia, and Utah, were each assigned a Marine Corps rifle squad. We have copies of photos of the Navy Blue Jacket Camp, Marine Rifle Range, Maryland, 1915, showing the Marine Rifle Range, a picture of three members of the U.S.S. Dolphin Marine Rifle Corps, 1915, and a copy of the U.S.S. Georgia June 19th 1909, a copy of the U.S.S. Georgia 1906. Also included in this lot is an original photograph in sepia tone, undated, of the U.S.S. Georgia that measures 11x20. CONDITION: Original photo is rough and attached to a flat board for preservation purposes. Rifle frame retains approximately 70% of the original 1911 period blue finish, balance patina, barrel is a blend of blue and grey patina, all legends are sharp, stock is excellent. Right side of stock stamped "U.S.S. Georgia", upside down. Left wrist has JFC cartouche stamp, for James F. Coyle, in block letters, correct for this era. Coyle served as inspector from 1905 to 1918. Rifle has a TE reading of 1 and an ME reading of 2. Stock has usual abrasions but is in excellent condition - even the barrel band retains approximately 50% of the original high polish blue. This is a historically significant, early, Model 1903. To date, this is the only rifle attributed to a pre-World War I battleship that we are aware of and we are conducting further research through Springfield Research on the ship's manifest. All further information required will accompany rifle. A once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire an all original pre-World War I Springfield, documented to one of America's Great White Fleet battleships.

(C) EARLY THREE DIGIT FIRST YEAR PRODUCTION U.S. SPRINGFIELD 1903 BOLT ACTION RIFLE.

Lot #2135 (Sale Order 134 of 667)

The serial number of this rifle indicates that it is an extremely early three digit rod bayonet rifle. It was then updated with a 1905 dated barrel or the action was not assembled until 1905. Has a letter A on the barrel which further indicates it was updated post 1906 to the then new .30-06 cartridge and the 2700 yard sight was added for the new cartridge. Has the second variation handguard, which was an update in 1906 and is referred to as the high hump hand guard with sight groove. At the end of the stock you can see the rod bayonet wedge that has been installed, once the rod bayonet was removed from the original stock. Stock has the wide finger grooves but the stock was recontoured to the beveled left side design. As updates progressed, a stock bolt would have been added and by World War I a second stock bolt was added. This example bears both stock bolts, indicating that this rifle was in use from 1903 to 1918 and perhaps beyond, but saw no further rebuilds or updates. All early milled parts to include split rings, smooth buttplate with trapdoor, milled floorplate and trigger housing, straight bolt. Proof P on wrist. Cartouche present on left side of stock but initials are illegible. CONDITION: Metal is basically a homogeneous blend of blue mixing with soft patina. Legends are sharp. Wood is very good to excellent with usual impressions and light handling marks. Has a muzzle reading of +2 and a throat reading of 4. Any original three digit Springfield would have been a bayonet model and are quite pricey. This is a chance to get an early three digit model that saw yeoman's service at a fraction of the price.

According to research, the frame of this rifle dates to 1908 and the barrel is dated 5 of 06. Barrel also stamped SA and ordnance bomb and the letter A. The letter A was added to the barrel of any rifle that passed through arsenal repair or check and test. It was indicated that the barrel sights have been checked to ensure that they were suitable for use with the 1906 cartridge, which graduated out to 2700 yards. This rifle has all early parts including the early high hump flat top handguard with no sight groove, stamped #90, probably a unit marking. Has original front sight with hood. Stock features the early wide finger groove, left side is early style straight stock, no stock bolts. Left side of wrist has cartouche in rectangle, ELH, for Edgar L.

Both are closed and tight and any decent woodworker could easily repair this problem and you would have an extremely fine, very early 1903 Springfield chambered for the .30-06 cartridge with a great bore. These early straight stocks with no bolts are very desirable on their own.

Fine original Springfield M1-C sniper rifle with Korean era 5-51 barrel date. Only 7,971 M1-C rifles were produced, all by Springfield. Receivers and receiver scope base were sent to Griffin & Howe for installation. Because 37,000 G&H M1-C sight mounting assemblies were produced during World War II, it makes it extremely difficult to determine originality but the serial number range is correct.

It has no US markings of any kind with a proper hand guard with January 15th and March 19th, 1918 patent date on left side, with no patent applied for on right side. Barrel extends the proper 1/2" beyond guard. Handguard has six rows of ventilation holes. Thin wrist, high comb, non-fluted stock with pistol grip. Canfield notes that most of the Winchester 1897 trench guns manufactured under World War I US Government contracts were not stamped with martial markings, which means this shotgun may have been made for the military, guard units, or civilian guard guns; there is no way to determine. Top of barrel and frame have the "PW" stamp. Left side of barrel stamped "CYL". Pump arm has the "WINCHESTER 1897" stamp. Proper solid frame. Barrel with patent stamps and "12 GAUGE". Walnut stocks with Winchester logo buttplate. Has 18 grooves on forend. Factory research states serial number applied January 6th, 1919; no other information available. CONDITION: This shotgun has areas of wear from pump and some scattered handling marks, but retains full 95% of the high polish Winchester blue finish. Stocks are excellent with a few dings and some minor stress cracks at wrist. Appears to be in near mint, barely used condition. Mirror bore and fine action.

(C) WORLD WAR II WINCHESTER MODEL 1897 US MARKED TRENCH GUN.

Lot #2147 (Sale Order 146 of 667)

According to the Canfield book on combat shotguns, where all this information is obtained, indicates that serial number 930571 is in the most commonly encountered range for trench guns. Serial number 986223 is documented on December 26th, 1943 and serial number 9021385 is confirmed on December 13th, 1942. Serial numbers were applied consecutively but not assembled in order, but this shotgun falls in between both of these documented guns that represent the low and high serial range. We can assume this gun was manufactured in 1942 or 1943. Features the proper takedown frame, proper unmarked four hole blued handguard, proper E prefix, proper flaming bomb on top of barrel. Matching numbers. Left side of frame simply stamped "U.S." without bomb, which, according to Canfield, is correct on early examples. The pistol grip walnut stock has fluted comb and there is no "WB/cannon" stamp, which, according to the book, indicates replacement or refinish. Walnut forend has 18 grooves. Left side of barrel has the Winchester stamps with chamber and cylinder. CONDITION: All legends are sharp. Frame retains approximately 90% original commercial Winchester blue. Barrel blue is virtually intact but thinning. Back half of magazine is grey-brown metal while the forward half is virtually intact. Wood is excellent and proud to metal. Comes with a 1914 dated NoBuckl sling. Nice, shiny bore and fine action. Everything is correct on this fine World War II trench gun with the exception of the buttstock which is open to subjectivity.

(C) Very Rare Halger .244 High Velocity Mauser Bolt Action Rifle.

Lot #2167 (Sale Order 166 of 667)

(1931) The Halger firm retailed a line of hyper velocity (for the time) cartridges and built very expensive rifles to handle them. The most famous cartridge was the .280 Halger magnum which was based on the .280 Ross case at advertised velocities well in excess of 3000 feet per second. The .244 Halger magnum is very seldom seen, but Halger advertising indicated an 87 grain bullet reached 3770 feet per second at the muzzle! From existing specimens of these rifles, it seems that Halger sourced his barrels and actions from J. P. Sauer & Sohn, with Sauer serial numbers. This rifle has 26" tapered round barrel mounted with one standing leaf rear and silver bead front in square sleeved-on block. Top of barrel is engraved "Halger - Waffen, Kiel" and marked "Krupp - Laufstahl". Bottom of barrel is stamped with December 1931 German nitro proofs. Standard length large ring Model 98 action is engraved "HALGER No 33" and with proofs and serial number on left side of nicely matted receiver ring. Top of sidewall is engraved "Halger .244 H. V. Magnum". Case hardened bolt has had handle turned down and lengthened. Knob is checkered in two round panels. Double pull trigger is retained, and bottom metal has removable floorplate retained by lever at rear. Rear portion of barrel and action bridge are fitted with claw scope bases. Lightly figured European walnut steel capped pistol grip stock measures 13" over composition buttplate with Sauer logo. A Greener type side safety is installed. There is well cut closely spaced point pattern checkering at grip and on both sides of long slim schnabeled forend. Weight: 7 lbs. 13 oz. CONDITION: Good to fine, as found. Metal parts retain most of their original blue with stains and wear evident overall considerably worn on trigger guard. Stock retains most of its original finish with a large number of knocks and dings, with some very deep marks on left side of forend checkering, which is worn and dirty. Bore is very fine to excellent, with strong rifling throughout, with a bit of erosion at throat. PROVENANCE: Estate Collection of Francis Brown. MGM 108.

Made with full length wood stock, checkered in point pattern through the wrist and at foregrip. Capped pistol grip.

(C) Historically Important, Exceedingly Rare (Serial Number 2 of an Estimated 6 Produced) Model 1913

Lot #2171 (Sale Order 170 of 667)

This rifle, actually made for Dr. Mann, early ballistics experimenter and author of "The Bullets Flight", (consignors notes indicate the presence of the bill of sale for this rifle from Niedner to Mann) was a collaboration of the two, which grew from their earlier Model 1912 action which had two large opposed locking lugs. This newer action used an interrupted square screw thread design. It has seven double locking lugs. Case hardened bolt with turned down handle and small knob is fitted with Springfield shroud. Left side of receiver ring is marked "MANN - NIEDNER" "1913" "MALDEN, MASS." "U. S. A." The serial number "2" is on bottom of action. Michael Petrov in "Custom Gunmakers of the 20th Century" illustrates a tool room model of this action (serial number "1" (?)). This single shot action also features double set triggers. 30" Round barrel is marked "A. O. NIEDNER MALDEN MASS". There is no barrel number on bottom. Barrel and top of action are fitted with Mann-Niedner tapered scope blocks. Lightly figured American walnut capped pistol grip off hand perch belly stock has swept right hand cheekpiece, and measures 13 - 3/8" over Swiss buttplate. Point pattern checkering is at grip, and modified point pattern checkering with rounded rear borders wraps around schnabeled forend. It is interesting to note that Model 1912 Mann-Niedner rifle, serial number "2" (?) (one of only two ever made) sold at the disposition of Michael Petrov's collection by Amoskeag Auction Company. It is possible that this rifle was the noted "Hamburg rifle.", nearly vaporizing a woodchuck at 220 yards. Weight: 12 lbs. 1 oz. CONDITION: Excellent, showing limited use. Metal parts retain over 90% original blue, silvered on sharp edges, and considerably thinned and browned on trigger guard. Bolt retains most of its original case hardening color. Stock retains nearly all of its original hand rubbed oil finish with some light marks. Bore is very fine to excellent, a bit dark. Action is smooth. A very important piece of American rifle making history. PROVENANCE: Estate Collection of Francis Brown. MGM 107.

Exquisite UMC Framed Cartridge Store Display Board.

Lot #2281 (Sale Order 280 of 667)

One of the most desirable of all advertising collectibles are the factory cartridge boards put out to advertise various ammunition. This board was assembled by the Union Metallic Cartridge Co. of Bridgeport, Connecticut circa 1880's. The original magnificent oak frame features the gesso 3D lettering on bottom reading "Union Metallic Cartridge Co.", letters are over 2" tall, finished in silver and stand out against the oak frame. The center diamond artwork measure 24"x18" and features a wild antlered game scene. Within the framed borders are well over 100 examples of all the famous cartridges available at that time: there are over ten Sharps cartridges, along with Remington single shot, Ballards, the entire Winchester line, and numerous oddball rimfires. The shot section includes paper and brass shells from 4 bore down with a nice separate display of primers and wads. The inside image itself measures 43" x 33" while the entire display 54-1/2" x 41-1/2". CONDITION: All of the cartridges are original to the board and all have their original ties. This entire piece has been blacklighted inch by inch and there is absolutely no in-painting or repairs within the borders. The colors are vibrant with no fading. Condition of gesso is near mint with no repaints. Frame has average storage marks. Has original backpaper with two original stickers, one reading "With the compliments of the Union Metallic Cartridge Company, Bridgeport, Connecticut" requesting prominent display while other deals with the replacement of broken glass. Retains original handblown glass, still intact, with a 1" piece missing from upper right corner. These were produced in very limited numbers during their time frame and only given to the largest and most productive dealers and were never offered to the retail trade. When they are found they are usually in various degrees of disrepair and are often found stripped of their expensive and rare individual cartridges. The UMC board appears to be far scarcer than the usually encountered Winchester boards. This cartridge board, having never been disassembled and retaining its original glass, is one of the finest all original cartridge boards we know of. Simply put, this large display piece is nearly impossible to obtain and be would impossible to improve upon. It is simply breathtaking in all respects and would be a center show piece in any gun room. It is actually handsome enough to make it into the living room. PROVENANCE: From the collection of Nathan Posner, former owner of the San Francisco Gun Exchange and most recently on display at the Buffalo Bill Historical Museum of Cody, Wyoming. NOTE: Comes with custom handbuilt wooden crate for shipping and/or transportation. Condition: Dimensions:

RARE WINCHESTER MODEL 1890 SINGLE "W" CARTRIDGE BOARD.

Lot #2282 (Sale Order 281 of 667)

This rare 1890 cartridge board was originally designed to provide a striking visual display of the diverse Winchester ammunition line. Dimensions of the board are 42-1/2" x 29-1/2" image size in its original oak frame with gold gesso lining which is 51" x 37-1/2". The board image is printed on wood grain cardboard with art vignettes, one by A.B. Frost in the left wing of the “W” which consists of a hunter and Indian guide in Hudson Bay Co. blanket coats. The right wing of the “W” depicts a Frederic Remington style vignette of a cowboy using an 1873 or 1876 rifle shooting, using his dead horse as a barricade. The bottom center depicts two hanging ducks. Top center of the board has the large red and gold “WINCHESTER” logo. Board contains 142 metallic cartridges plus five brass shot shells and seven paper shot shells, plus six glass top primer and cap boxes with the massive .70-150 cartridge at the apex of the center of the “W”. Over the years these bullet boards were subjected to the ravages of time and tinkerers. The rare .70-150 cartridge has been replaced long ago by contemporary reproduction as has the .50-70 Gov't cartridge. Board also has two replaced shotshells at bottom center. Mounted in its original flat oak frame with gold gesso inner frame and has its original paper covering on the back with Winchester’s label on the back exhorting the owner to display it prominently. CONDITION: Good to very good. Overall retains a rich aged patina which partially obscures the artwork and lettering but does not detract from the overall appearance of the board. Several small nicks and abrasions are evident and an area of gold leaf loss is evident at bottom inner liner. The paper patches on some of the bullets are very dark and yellowed and some are chipped. The cartridges are mostly dark and smoke covered but may clean much better. Frame is fine. Backing paper is also dark and yellowed and two or three cartridges have been reattached. Rear label is intact and legible. A careful conservation by a competent and knowledgeable person could bring this board back to bright colors.Condition: Dimensions:

WINCHESTER SINGLE W CARTRIDGE BOARD CIRCA 1890.

Lot #2283 (Sale Order 282 of 667)

The board image is printed on wood grain cardboard. The single 'W' board was introduced circa 1890. Features two vignettes; on the left depicts a hunter and Indian guide, while the right side is a cowboy with Winchester Model 1897 rifle using his dead horse for cover. Center artwork depicts two hanging ducks. CONDITION: Fine condition with no signs of any inpainting. There are some light scratches and a few extraneous holes, all very small with a purposeful application. The second case from right is missing the bullet. The second and seventh cartridges on left side are missing their bullets. Appears as though most of the cases have been lightly cleaned but there are no missing cartridges. The frame, while definitely period, is not the original oak frame that it would have come in. Extremely fine and rare board in good, clean condition that would benefit from a better frame, and a few of the cartridges need their wires slightly tightened. It seems as though these rare promotional cartridge boards are skyrocketing in value as every gun room needs an example, and this example is far better than most. With a little work, this board could be world class. This is not a standard shippable item and will require 3rd party shipping or pickup arrangements to be made. Condition: Dimensions: 34" W x 46" T.

BEAUTIFUL 19TH CENTURY WINCHESTER CARTRIDGE DISPLAY BOARD.

Lot #2284 (Sale Order 283 of 667)

Never made available to the general public, Winchester produced the "Double W" cartridge board in two variations: the more expensive and rare of the two is the one that featured actual cartridges attached to the board. This is a stone lithograph done in full color with the same image as the real cartridge board but no actual cartridges. It was printed in full vibrant color and features the same image of two hunters and a dead bear, and a mallard and moose. These large display pieces were very susceptible to storage due to size. Very few have survived in excellent condition without evidence of water damage, tearing or extreme surface wear. CONDITION: We have completely blacklighted this poster and there is no evidence of any in-painting or touch-up. There are some scratches to the surface, very few and very minor. The color is brilliant. It is still housed in its original mission style 3" oak frame with the gold inner liner. Measures 57" L x 40" H. It is in its original size and have never been cut down or altered. A stunning display piece for your gun room at a fraction of the cost of the actual cartridge board, and far easier to maintain. Highly desirable due to the infrequency of their offering and this example is in far better than average condition; the scratches could be touched up but they are so minor one would have to question the reason one would tamper with such a nice, all original 130 year old display piece.Condition: Dimensions:

By 1895 the factory was working two shifts, 24 hours a day, six days a week, with 100 employees producing 20,000 pounds of gun powder per week. Its most famous advocate in the United States was famous sharpshooter Annie Oakley. Schultze went into decline in 1906 and sales plummeted after World War I.

The K3 can be converted to .32 ACP as well as .22 LR with the factory produced conversion units that were available at time of initial production. This example is the American variation with a adjustable rear sight and a semi-finger rest left grip panel as well as the standard non-finger rest right grip panel. Gun is factory import marked Chantilly VA . Unlike the larger P7 variations the K3 has a removable barrel assembly using a barrel nut. Traditional thumb release magazine release, blue finish, and three dot sights. Comes complete with numbers matching factory plastic box, manual, spare magazine and maintenance tool. CONDITION: Exceptionally fine with slight traces of finish wear on squeeze cocker from handing. The factory blue finish is excellent with no losses except as noted on squeeze cocker. The polygonal bore is exceptional, bright and shiny. The action is crisp and functions properly. The box is excellent with clear markings. Operators manual is slightly worn but complete. The maintenance tool appears to be pristine. Spare magazine is equally fine. A rare opportunity to own one of Hecker & Koch's rarest pistol variations in prime condition.

(C) Remington UMC Model 1911 Serial No. X1 Semi-Automatic Pistol.

Lot #2396 (Sale Order 395 of 667)

Offered is a one of a kind Remington Model 1911 UMC military semi-automatic pistol. The entire pistol was manufactured by Remington under contract by Colt to produce pistols during World War I; from August 1918 until 1919. They produced 21,677 pistols during this time period with the last delivery to the Ordnance Department in May of 1919. The frame on this pistol is stamped "UNITED STATES PROPERTY" on left side. The letter "E" can be found stamped on the left trigger bow and bottom mainspring housing, both exclusive to UMC. The blued barrel is simply stamped with a "P", which is also correct for this model. Right side of slide stamped "MODEL OF 1911 US CALIBER 45"; left side is stamped "PATENTED DEC 19 1905 FEB 14 1911 AUG 19 1913 COLTS PT. F.A. MFG. CO." with "REMINGTON UMC" in circle, right of circle is stamped "MANUFACTURED BY REMINGTON ARMS UMC CO. INC. BRIDGEPORT. CONN. USA". Back of slide is stamped "E". The right side of frame has no serial number nor are there any inspection stamps; there never were and never removed. At the bottom of the right side of frame under grip is stamped "X1". All standard features to include long smooth trigger, flat mainspring housing with loop, checkered wide spur hammer, checkered slide stop and safety, beveled edge U notch rear sight, small blade front sight, and diamond checkered walnut grips. Referring to the book on the Model 1911 by Joe Poyer, page 90 shows front row of checkering on the Remington hammer that was cut in half by the final polishing technique; the checkered grips are pictured on page 140, No. 3 with 13 to 13.5 diamonds per inch; magazine is a two tone, tempered, pinned base with no markings and no lanyard loop; Remington slide markings can be seen on page 336. There is no recorded information that has survived detailing the UMC Model without a serial number. One theory is that these were possible parts clean-up guns at the end of production, but many of these have no number at all. This example does have a serial number of "X1" and it is our opinion that this is most likely the first one off the line that was manufactured to see if all tolerances were correct before entering mass production. This, like the other opinion, is simply conjecture as we will probably never know the exact reason, but the X1 first production manufactured for testing, seems to hold more water as there are no other X1 examples. In either case it is an usual, early example that saw no real use, whereas parts clean-up guns would still be manufactured to be used. CONDITION: Aside from the mainspring housing, which is a soft patina, this pistol retains approximately 95%+ of the original military blue finish with razor sharp legends. There is a light drag line and a couple of minor surface scrapes under slide lock. Grips are near mint. Bore is near mint or better and shiny. It is in near mint condition overall showing little to no use.

(C) UNION SWITCH & SIGNAL CO. EXPERIMENTAL 1911A1 SEMI-AUTOMATIC PISTOL.

Lot #2405 (Sale Order 404 of 667)

Union Switch & Signal was contracted to produce the Model 1911A1 in January of 1943. On June 26th, 1943 the Ordnance Department requested that US&S produce the original order of 25,000 plus an additional 25,000; 55,000 were delivered by November 27th, 1943 with all produced in the same year. While gearing up for production, a number of prototypes were produced to check tolerances and other variables before plunging into full mass production. This is one of those prototypes. If going simply by number this is the 40th example of an experimental model manufactured. Distinctive features on the experimental model include no military inspector stamps since these examples were intended for in-house use only. The only military proofs to be found on this pistol is the proof "P" on top of slide; with note to the lack of military inspector stamps, the firearm is identical to the mass produced models that were issued for military service. They feature the same military dark phosphate finish. Blued barrel was manufactured by Hi-Standard and can be found with the "HS" stamp on lug, along with the "P". All small parts are correct for the US&S model to include checkered spurless hammer, checkered safety, checkered slide stop, checkered arched mainspring housing with loop, short checkered trigger, Keyes star brand brown composite grips. World War II magazine is stamped with "R" at lip for Risdon Tool & Machine Co., variation Type 4E. Left side of slide is stamped "US&S CO SWISSVALE PA U.S.A." and right side of frame stamped "US&S CO NO 40". There is no US Army property stamp, nor is the Model stamp present. CONDITION: As to be expected, gun does not appear to have been fired. Retains virtually all of its original factory military finish with typical takedown line and a few light scattered handling marks. It is believed that less than 100 of these experimentals were manufactured and were presented to dignitaries sometime after the war, all of which is purely speculative. This is the highest number that we are aware of, so if they did make 100, we have neither seen nor heard of any numbers higher than 40. In either case, an extreme World War II rarity, at least five times more rare than the desirable and elusive Singer. It would be nearly impossible to find, let alone in such fine condition; possibly a once in a lifetime opportunity to own one of the rarest of all World War II military 1911A1 Models.

Lot #2412 (Sale Order 411 of 667)

This model was originally developed as an experimental model in 1903. The 1912 Model Mark I was an update of the Model 1906 and was approved for government service on May 19th, 1913, whereupon it was adopted for use by the Royal Navy and Royal Marines. It was extensively used on both land and sea during the first World War. 1912 introduced the grip safety, similar to the one use on the Colt Model 1911.

(C) EXTRAORDINARY CASED COLT MODEL 1908 .25 ACP AUTOMATIC PISTOL MASTERFULLY ENGRAVED AND SIGNED BY

Lot #2413 (Sale Order 412 of 667)

Of all the known engravers to have embellished firearms in the 20th century, the artistry of William H. Gough is rarely encountered and extremely sought after. Over the course of his career Gough worked for Colt, Winchester, Remington, Savage as well as contract engraving presentation arms to heads of state of Iran and Egypt from President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Offered is believed to be the earliest known signed work of William Gough. Colt Model 1908 .25 serial number 106082 is fully documented in "The Book Of Colt Engraving" on pages 326 & 327 and attributes the gun to the David S Woloch collection. Listed in the Colt ledgers as having been shipped in January 1914, .25 cal, 2" barrel soft (indicating shipped out of the factory for engraving) stocks not listed, and shipped to William H. Gough (for engraving) sold to: Murata Appleton & Company, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Further, author R.L. Wilson attributes the gold inlaid checkered mother of pearl grips to Gough. The gun is engraved in the scrolls and leafy coverage so distinctive of Gough with nearly 95% coverage on the frame and slide. The two piece checkered mother of pearl grips are inlaid with the initial W M H. Beneath the left grip is engraved Des & Eng By W.H.Gough. Pistol is presented in its correct period black leatherette case with Colt hang-tag and with royal blue velvet and satin lining with a factory Colt monogram in gold. CONDITION: Extremely fine with over 97% of the factory blue finish remaining with only slight traces of edge wear. The bore and mechanics are excellent as well. The Mother of Pearl grips are exceptional and remain brilliant. The leatherette case is extremely fine internally with all hinges and clasp remaining functional. Slight edge and corner wear is evident but is not distracting in its appearance. The hang-tag is slightly oil stained and creased but remains intact and is pictured with the gun in Wilson's book. There is speculation that this gun may have served as William H. Gough's initial sample work for Colt. A marvelous example of Colt's highly embellished arms.

Lot #2417 (Sale Order 416 of 667)

This pair of authenticated Single Action Colt revolvers manufactured by EMF with their original drop loop holsters and pistol belt were used by the famed actor Powers Boothe depicting "Curly Bill" Brocius in the 1993 American classic western movie Tombstone. The film is based on the events surrounding the famed "OK Corral" shootout with Lawman Wyatt Earp, Doc Holiday, and the notorious outlaw gang "The Cowboys". Curly Bill was the unofficial leader of The Cowboys clan and is depicted as being a savage murderer and all around bad "Hombre". This pair of .45 Colt chambered 7-1/2 inch Colt Single action revolvers were manufactured by EMF and come with documentation from Caravan West Productions. Caravan West supplied the firearms for this epic movie and included are copies of the original invoices from EMF to Caravan West Productions that list the guns by serial number. The revolvers are housed in a pair of drop loop holsters with belt custom produced for the movie by R. Gang Sylmar CA, and are so marked. These holsters and guns are pictured on page 25 of the book "TOMBSTONE, THE GUNS AND GEAR" authored by Peter Sherayko. Peter Sherayko is the owner of Caravan West. This grouping also comes with one of the original Red Sashes worn by "Curly Bill" during the filming of the movie. A copy of the movie script with the name C. Nelson penned inside also accompanies this historic lot. Further documentation is a 2-page letter on Caravan West stationary signed by Peter Sherayko explaining the custody trail of these items, listing the guns by serial number, and describing the gun rig in great detail.

(M) LOT OF 10: CONSECUTIVELY NUMBERED UNFIRED COLT CUSTOM SHOP SINGLE ACTION ARMY REVOLVERS IN CUSTO

Lot #2418 (Sale Order 417 of 667)

This collection proves that if you want something bad enough, have the means to purchase and the diligence to persevere numerous obstacles, that dreams can and do come true. In short, this collection of ten Colt Single Action Army Revolvers is the only such collection ever assembled. Historians will point to the late 19th century when ten special order Colt Single Action Army Revolvers were produced but they were all .45 caliber, nickel finish and engraved with 5-1/2" barrels and the serial numbers were not consecutive. This was a mythical run of Colts that many believe the Dalton gang ended up procuring and were used in the famous robbery at Coffeyville, Kansas of which three revolvers from that order still exist. But we go back to the fact that they were all the same and not consecutive, and cannot be compared to this current collection whereas each revolver has a special feature or combination of features, making each unique and one-of-a-kind. If any reader has ever tried to get just a single Colt from the custom gun shop with features they were no longer making, you know how difficult it was to have them overlook the discontinued items and produce them for you, regardless. Now, consider at the time the first order was placed in 1988 and the last firearm was completed on September 21st, 1995 and requested they reserve ten consecutive serial numbers from regular production for a period of over eight years and the idea that was formulated to make each one unique took a tremendous amount of patience and compliance from both sides of the table. As if coming up with ten consecutive unique Colt Army revolvers was not challenge enough alone, let's examine the firewalls that were thrown into this span of time. Upon placing the first order in 1988, Colt was in the middle of a five year Union strike, making available labor spotty at best. Then in 1992, Colt filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Protection where it wallowed until sold in September of 1994. It is well known that a smooth running company retains its figureheads for long period of time and that when head management changes at a rapid pace, quality and production spiral out of control. So it was during this era that these Colts were made, saw the coming and going of four different presidents: Gary W. French, Richard F. Gamble, Ronald Stillwell and Ronald C. Whitaker. In fact, there was no president when the last gun was ready for presentation and delivery. Eventually, the vacant office was filled by Donald E. Zilkha. The Colt Custom Gun Shop, renowned for the master craftsmen it employed, was in upheaval as well. Lou Sharp, the Custom Sales Shop manager would resign and Al DeJohn, founder of the shop, retired in 1990. DeJohn was replaced for a short period of time by Joe Bischof and again by Jim Alaimo. Alaimo soon resigned as well, and the custom shop responsibilities were divided into production and sales with Paul Zamsky appointed custom shop supervisor and Lynn Shea custom shop sales supervisor. In 1992, the company planned a consolidation of the two Hartford plants that was not completed until May 31st, 1994 with the custom shop among the last to vacate the Hartford Armory building. The turmoil at the Colt Factory made it nearly impossible to get an order such as this processed, a major problem being the withdrawal of serial numbers in this range, the suspending of production of the black powder style frames, shortage of supply of one piece ivory stocks, and the return of the custom shop guideline that did not allow customers to select a specific engraver. Every gun in this collection is a Custom Gun Shop endeavor; each remains unfired in its original box. It is also interesting to note that the last revolver manufactured was delivered personally by Jeffrey R. Crute, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. During these eight years, Colt mainstays such as Marty Huber, Kathy Hoyt and Beverly Haynes continued diligently to keep this project on point. To conclude, it was a near miracle that the set of Colts that dreams are made of was ever finished at all. Since their completion, this one-of-a-kind and unique collection has been featured in its entirety in two books. You can find images of the complete collection with brief descriptions and serial numbers on page 316 and 317 in the book titled "Colt and Its Collectors" as well as in "The Colt Engraving Book Vol. II" by R.L. Wilson on pages 804 and 805. Click here to see the full description.

We do not know if the barrel was changed at time of engraving or if this was simply a factory letter error because it does have the special order long flute .41 caliber cylinder listed in letter; since the original cylinder is .41 caliber, it is our estimation that the factory made an error on the letter. Has all matching numbers. CONDITION: Revolver retains the majority of its silver plating. There is traces of gold wash on cylinder but it is basically silver at this point. 50% gold wash on hammer and traces on trigger. Lovely aged ivory grips with no chips or major cracks. All four Colt clicks lock up like a vault. Strong rifled bore with light frosting. The leather wallet that holds the "Sheriff's Posse Cascade County, Mont" has a deputy sheriff ID card that reads "This is to certify that Woodrow Traver has been appointed deputy sheriff of Cascade County, Great Falls, Montana Sheriff's Posse" and is signed "D.J. Leeper, Sheriff", and also comes with a 2" photograph that is written on back "Woodrow Traver, Deputy 1928". This is an extremely handsome, Texas-shipped revolver with Montana history.

Lot #2428 (Sale Order 427 of 667)

This is a pre-letter series Colt Python with the correct diamond checkered, gold medallion, "smiley face" walnut grips. This is referred to as a 1st Model Python; the early pre-letter series Pythons were manufactured when the majority were purchased to be used and therefore far fewer exist in near new condition, as opposed to the thousands of new-in-box Pythons manufactured after the mid-70's of which more exist unused than used, as more and more collectors delineate between the mass produced letter series and the early pre-letter series. The prices paid for a Colt Python should reflect this difference and rarity. Features include vent rib, full lug, target sights, six shot, fluted cylinder, target hammer. CONDITION: Revolver shows a light drag line, otherwise in very fine condition. Cylinder face shows very little signs of having ever been fired. Grips are excellent. Mirror bore. Excellent action.

This revolver was originally built in 1917. We have no factory letter to determine if it is the original caliber and barrel length but all of the factory serial numbers are matching on frame, trigger guard, and backstrap. Barrels and cylinders were not numbered during this period. This revolver was masterfully engraved in a scroll pattern with the punch dot background and nearly 100% coverage (at least D grade). The cylinder pin, frame screws, ejector housing, cylinder, hammer, and trigger have been gold plated. Has the proper two line barrel address for short barrel. Fitted with genuine mother of pearl grips with carved steer head on right side with ruby eyes. Frame has two line patent address. Indexes properly but does not have the four Colt clicks. Should be examined before firing by a competent gunsmith as the last click is missing and could cause the hammer to slip. CONDITION: Near new inside and out as custom finished. Strong, clean bore, still shiny with well defined lands and grooves. This is a showstopper of a cowboy style engraved World War I era colt.

According to factory letter USMC Number 745 revolver, serial number 553, was shipped to the United States Government Assistant Quartermaster United States Marine Corp, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, August 10th, 1907, in a shipment of 100 guns. These rare revolvers, one of only 926, were built on the Army/Navy swing out frame. Has special Marine Corps round butt, special diamond checkered walnut grips, butt stamped "USMC NO 745". Last patent date on barrel is March 5th, 1895. These are amongst the most sought after Marine Corp weapons and due to the hard service, very few are ever offered for public sale. This example is in exceptional shape for one of these guns. CONDITION: Barrel retains 30-40% of the original factory commercial type finish, blending with soft grey patina and razor sharp markings. Frame and cylinder retain between 75-80% of the factory bright blue with some usual handling marks and some spotting, mainly on right side of frame. Screws and back of hammer retain generous amounts of fire blue. Straps are soft grey patina. Original lanyard loop is intact. Action indexes and locks up perfectly. Near mint bore. Colt only produced two special Marine marked handguns after the turn of the 20th century - the 1905 and the 1909. No other weapons were specifically marked for the Marines. There were a series of Colt 1911 Models in a specific serial block shipped to the marines but they were not marked USMC. That makes these guns especially desirable amongst collectors of Marine weaponry.

It is our suggestion that buyer spend the money and send for a factory letter, as this is among the five rarest Single Action Armies ever manufactured. That said, the revolver remains in unfired condition with full factory nickel finish. Rosewood grips that are also not standard Colt. Factory letter may reveal some definitive answers.

(C) GEN. MARK W. CLARK'S SMITH & WESSON MODEL 1917 REVOLVER.

Lot #2458 (Sale Order 457 of 667)

This is an interesting revolver, it is an all standard U.S. issue Model 1917 Smith & Wesson that was made to fire a .45 ACP cartridge by use of half-moon clips. It is a blue, six shot, double action, with case colored hammer and trigger. Left side of frame has the ordnance bomb. Left rear trigger bow has the eagle inspector stamp. The butt is stamped with the serial number as well as "U.S. Army Model 1917". Bottom of barrel is stamped "United States Property". There is an inspector eagle head on bottom of barrel and back of cylinder with matching serial numbers as well. Original walnut grips. There is a lanyard in the butt. CONDITION: Gun retains approximately 90% of original factory blue finish. There is overall high edge wear on all sharp surfaces, muzzle wear, and scattered handling marks. Most screws are true. Has a well defined bore with shiny grooves. Indexes correctly, both single and double action. The revolver was sourced from the family of Major John H. Gregory. It has been in the family since it was acquired from General Clark. Major Gregory who kept a diary of his time overseas during World War II, in particular February 25th, 1943 while in Casablanca where he wrote a note, much of it mundane, but in there he writes "Swapped gun for a Smith & Wesson carried by General Clark". It has remained in the family ever since. We have a signed letter from Robert H. Gregory who was an L-4A Pilot immediately after the war. The letter is addressed to Ms. Jane Yates of the citadel archives. The letter discusses this revolver as well as the military duty of the three sons who are now in their 80's. Letter dated 2008. So the lineage of this revolver is well documented from 1943 to present. Major Gregory was involved in many of the battles in the Africa region during the second world war, but it is the attribution to General Mark Wayne Clark that is the most intriguing. There is a short biography of Clark taken from the citadel archives included with this lot. Clark graduated from West Point in 1917 and immediately there after was sent to France where he fought in several battles including the infamous Mause-Argonne. He stayed in the military until World War II erupted, working as an instructor at the Army War College. In January 1942 he became the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Army Ground Forces and in May of 1942 named Chief of Staff, then becoming Commander of the Army Ground Forces in the European Theater and in October 1942, Deputy Commander and Chief of the Allied Forces in the North African Theater. January of 1943 he became Commanding General of the 5th Army, headquartered in OUJDA North Africa where he spent seven months. On June 4th, 1944, the 5th Army captured Rome, the first Axis Capital. In June of 1945 he was Commander and Chief of the U.S. Occupation Forces. General Clark accepted the presidency of the citadel on October 23rd, 1953. This revolver is being consigned directly from the Gregory family and its history and provenance is well documented. This is a rare opportunity for one to own a service revolver used by one of the most famous generals of the second world war. An exciting piece of World War II history that rightly belongs in the citadel museum. Note: The letter from the son lists the serial number one number off.

(C) RARE HIGH CONDITION 1940 SMITH & WESSON NON-REGISTERED MAGNUM DOUBLE ACTION REVOLVER.

Lot #2461 (Sale Order 460 of 667)

Arguably the holy grail of all 20th century Smith & Wesson collectibles are the pre-war Registered Magnum double action revolvers. Introduced and 1935 and produced until 1939, each revolver was hand fitted and the yoke was stamped with a registration number, and would have been supplied to the new owner with his custom built .357 that included a registration certificate, instructions, screwdriver, swab and sleeve, cleaning brush, request card and envelope. On October 16th, 1939, the instructions came through to stop marking the guns with the registration number. Harold Wesson dictated this process be stopped in order to shift support to the coming war. Approximately 5,224 were manufactured from 1935 to 1939 and they could be special ordered to the individual's tastes. From October 16th, 1939 through 1942 approximately 1,400 Non-Registered Pre-War Magnums were produced, approximately 60% less revolvers than the Registered Magnums. These are referred to as Non-Registered Magnums; they no longer had the registration stamp and barrel length became standard. In the book "The Standard Catalog of Smith & Wesson 4th Edition", by Supica and Nahas, on page 154 they go on to state that not only are they much rarer than the Registered Magnums but "in general, they were more likely to be heavily used than the Registereds, and accordingly, high condition guns are noticeably scarce". He also states that serial number 62489 with 4-1/2" barrel was the only war-time production Magnum manufactured in 1942, so the majority of the Non-Registered Magnums were produced between October 1939 through December 6th, 1941. The factory letter states serial number 61449 was shipped May 9th, 1940 and delivered to Kelley-How & Thomson, Duluth, Minnesota. Letter also states that the cost was $35.45 and the gun was marked for S. Gilleland on the invoice. Shipped as a .357 Magnum, 6-1/2" with blued finish, Patridge sights and no special sights. These Non-Registered Magnums were shipped in the same blue box as their Registered successor. This example features Patridge front sight, target adjustable rear sight, pinned barrel, recessed chamber, case colored checkered humpback hammer with side serrations and "REG US PAT OFF" stamp, five screw, factory blue finish, serrated trigger, six shot, double action and blued finish. All matching numbers including barrel, cylinder and right grip. CONDITION: This gun is definitely nice enough for a box. Has a hint of muzzle wear, hint of high edge cylinder wear, nice case colors. Retains 98% original factory high polish blue finish. Walnut grips have had some finish added as well as a minor repair to the right numbers matching grip at the front leading edge (visible in pictures). Indexes and locks up correctly. Mirror bore. Overall, the nicest blued transition model this writer has ever seen, infinitely rarer than the Registered Model but built on the same machine by the same people. Also one of the hardest to find of any Smith & Wesson's that retains any kind of condition; a collector's prize.

Still retains approximately 85% original factory nickel. The frame retains approximately 95% original nickel with a few flakes. Cylinder shows some brown toning in flutes, light flaking at forward of cylinders, and a bit of age freckling. Even straps retain the majority of the original nickel, as does trigger guard.

(C) Smith and Wesson New Model 3 Target .44 Single Action Revolver.

Lot #2463 (Sale Order 462 of 667)

This is a scarce target model with the Paine front sight and adjustable rear sight. Six shot fluted cylinder, single action, nickel plated, with Smith and Wesson monogrammed black composite grips. Hammer and trigger are case colored, rear sight latch is high polish blue. This gun has been expertly and properly refinished as they did not renickel the trigger guard and hammer as do most refinished guns. The fit on the sideplate is razor sharp with no damage, another trait normally not found on refinished guns. Has matching serial numbers on frame, cylinder, latch, and barrel. CONDITION: There are a few areas of fine pitting on the cylinder, otherwise this revolver retains 97% of the reapplied nickel retaining razor sharp edges and legends. There is some light bubbling and freckling here and there, which indicates a period renickel. Grips are near mint, nice case colors on hammer, traces on trigger guard. 98% high polish blue on latch, sight, and extractor. Due to the age of the refinish and the factory quality, it is our opinion that it is a factory refinish gun. Unfortunately, factory finishes are generally stamped and dated under the grips and we cannot remove the grips as the right escutcheon simply spins, preventing removal and confirmation of factory work. Action is fine and locks up like a vault with a strong, clean, and shiny near mint bore. A beautiful revolver and we are virtually positive was factory redone before World War II but cannot guarantee it. If you are looking for a Model 3 Target that looks factory near new and you want one to shoot the .44 Russian, which is easy to obtain and or reload, this would be the perfect one for you.

There is a copy of commendation from King George as well as several copies of pertinent information as it relates to Captain Pinder's service and subsequent injury during the Great War. Overall fine original condition throughout but the real value in this firearm is its storied history. Having been in the front line trenches with the documentation of an Officer who was shot "Going over the Top" in 1916. It is housed in its original leather flap holster that is stamped on back "M. Harvey & Company" and "Walsall G&M 1914" that remains in excellent condition.

As an engineer and inventor, Marquis refined his design and in 1943 received an order to make five initial examples for Himmler's SS. The originals were all SS marked and had SS Eagles on the belt plate. Since World War II many variations of these have been observed and in our opinion they are all spurious.

(A) Brevette LeMat Percussion Revolver.

Lot #2527 (Sale Order 526 of 667)

The LeMat patented revolver saw widespread use during the Civil War, especially in the Southern states. The original first models were manufactured in Paris and the late war models were manufactured in London. Copyright infrigements were a very common occurrence amongst European gun manufacturers in Belgium and Spain and plagued the major manufacturers during the mid 19th century. This is such a gun. It is a foreign made copy of the famous LeMat revolver. It does not have any liege inspector stamps, leading us to believe that this example was made in Spain. These revolvers, made to resemble other well-known revolvers, are referred to today as a "Brevette" model, which indicates it being a foreign copy. This was manufactured during the Civil War period and is a copy of the Paris LeMat, featuring a nine shot percussion .42 caliber revolving cylinder and a single smoothbore .63 caliber shotgun barrel for buck and ball. Features a typical first model part octagon part round barrel with loading lever mounted on right side. The full or partial serial number (167) can be found on barrel, right side of frame, cylinder, and shot barrel. There is a "J" on left side of shot barrel, script in circle stamp on left side of barrel, illegible, top of barrel stamped "Col. LeMat's Patent." Smooth varnish wood stocks. Butt with lanyard and ring. Sash hook on trigger guard. Hammer is finely checkered. CONDITION: All metal is a smooth grey patina with no traces of original finish.

(A) Colt Model 1855 .56 Caliber Revolving Military Rifle.

Lot #2530 (Sale Order 529 of 667)

With overlapping serial numbers the actual date of manufacture is difficult to determine. The rare First Model 1855 .56 caliber Military rifle was purchased and utilized during the US Civil War by several states and militia units including Berdan's Sharpshooters and the famed Ninth Illinois regiment. Some where even used by Italian freedom fighter Garibaldi in 1859. This example, serial number 618, with single line "COL.COLT HARTFORD CT U.S.A." address on top of large frame and 5 shot fluted cylinder. Military pattern full length forestock with walnut military pattern butt with steel butt plat and sling swivels. Fixed windage adjustable rear sight and post front sight for use with angular bayonet. Total production of the Military model is less than 9000.The model 1855 is a scarce variation and is rarely found in any condition. The use of these rifles in actual combat during the Civil War was very limited and little is known of their performance. The possibility of having a five shot repeating rifle in the massive .56 caliber, had to be impressive to say the least. CONDITION. Good and fully functioning. The bore is very good with strong rifling and good grooves. The cylinder has all nipples present with very light pitting in the flutes. The barrel has typical period light pitting in several areas but has a very pleasant even patina. The two piece walnut stocks are slightly undersized from age and use and are very dry. No major distress is evident with several minor chips missing along barrel edge and a small shrinkage crack at wrist. The action functions properly however gun was not disassembled for further inspection. Serial number 618 is found on bottom of frame while number 4542 is found on the lower tang. This was obviously a field swap from another rifle as it has the proper 56 caliber marking on the trigger guard. Overall a very good example of one of Colt's least common military arms.

Chapter 4 of the referenced publication is about gold inlaid Model 1860 Army revolvers. Pages 132-150 concern this pair of revolvers. Pages 132-139 are a reprint of a letter of documentation and authentication from noted Colt historian & author, R.L. Wilson. Mr. Wilson states that these revolvers are the only two Colt percussion revolvers identified by serial number in the records as being gold inlaid. He states that they are listed in the “Civil War Ledger Book No. 3” under the date March 11, 1867 with the entry “gold inlaid, gold mounted straps and guards”. Mr. Wilson states that revolver #162977 was discovered in 1966 in Turkey in an altered state with about a 5-1/2" bbl, showing much use with the finish reduced to patina. #162978 has yet to be discovered. He identifies the engraving and gold inlay as the work of master engraver Gustave Young and the carved stocks attributed to Charles J. Helfricht. Mr. Wilson identifies the first known American owner as the former well known and respected Johnie Bassett of Fayetteville, Arkansas. The revolver was purchased by Mr. Glenn Gierhart of Indianapolis, Indiana who lived in the close proximity of master gunsmith & creative artist Tommy Haas Sr.. Mr. Gierhart contracted with Mr. Haas to restore #162977 to its original configuration and finish and to create #162978 to match. Mr. Haas accomplished the work very admirably and created a pair of masterpieces that would make Samuel Colt proud. These revolvers are then pictured in full color on pp. 141-150 of the referenced publication. They are also pictured in numerous other publications. PROVENANCE: Johnie Bassett Collection; Glenn Gierhart Collection; R.L. Wilson Collection. CONDITION: Extraordinarily fine, pristine new retaining all of their crisp Tommy Haas finish with bright Colt blue and brilliant case colors.

Thorton, who returned from New Mexico in 1857 and in 1858 he was restored to his position as commander of the New York Ordnance Department; this inspector stamp would indicate that while the gun's frame was manufactured in 1857 this revolver was not inspected for government service until 1858 at the earliest. Near mint bore. It does not appear that this revolver was ever actually fired upon examination of the nipples and cylinder face, and the lack of wear at the forcing cone, and has to be one of the finer known examples of a Martially marked 1851 Navy revolver. This is considered by many collectors that are familiar with this collection as one of the finest surviving examples of this type to ever surface. From the Jim Linton Collection.

Lot #2535 (Sale Order 534 of 667)

Blue & color case hardened with 7-1/2" octagon barrel, brass pin front sight, and one line London address with short spears.

Cylinder is usual 6-shots with Ormsby naval battle scene and all six safety pins crisp & serviceable. Left side of grip is stamped, upside down, “U.C / 61 / 33”. Prior to 1854 the Canadian Military was supplied arms by the British government, but at about that point the British military was so heavily embroiled in the Crimean War that they were hard pressed to maintain their own military forces and therefore asked Canada to become more active in supplying their own arms. Canada accepted and in 1855 a commission was sent to England to purchase arms for the militia. Among other purchases, they bought 800 Colt Model 1851 Navy revolvers with 556 going to Upper Canada, the area of Canada now known as the Province of Ontario, and 255 being issued to Lower Canada, the area known today as the Province of Quebec. Routinely these revolvers are stamped on the grip “UC” with a company letter and the rack number of the revolver. This revolver with the number “61” in place of the company designation apparently is an abnormality and the meaning of which is unknown. Reference information obtained from the book "’51 Colt Navies" by Swayze. Accompanied by an English mahogany casing with scalloped brass plate in the lid which is engraved in script lettering “T.H. Bolton”. Interior is red velvet lined with a Colt’s directions label inside the lid.

(A) HISTORIC ENGRAVED COLT 1851 NAVY REVOLVER PRESENTED TO LIEUTENANT COMMANDER LEROY FITCH, THE HER

Lot #2537 (Sale Order 536 of 667)

This most important and beautiful historical Colt 1851 Navy was “Presented to Lieutenant.Commander Leroy Fitch / A token of / Friendship and Esteem / from / A. Mast. Frederick Read / A. A. Surgn Geo. W. Shields / May 6, 1865”. Subject revolver is silver plated with gilt cylinder, rammer, trigger and hammer. Profusely and beautifully engraved in the Nimschke style. Backstrap engraved “Leroy Fitch”. “P” for plated on backstrap, trigger guard and frame. Magnificent carved ivory grips with high raised relief American eagle in flight above a ship and sea serpent. Most unusual and attractive motif. Leroy Fitch (1834-1875) graduated from the Naval Academy in 1856 and served until his death. There are over 1,000 pages in the official records with his name or report. He is best known as Commander of the “Brown Water Navy” where his gunboats would support land forces with naval artillery fire. During the Battle of Nashville in December 1864, Fitch battled Confederate Cavalry under Nathan Bedford Forrest at Kelly’s Point at what is now called the Battle of West Nashville. This was possibly the only time in General Forrest’s career that he was surprised and out-maneuvered in a military operation. Fitch was Commander in Charge of the riverboat fleet from his flagship USS Moose, along with USS Carondelet, USS Neosho, USS Fairplay, USS Silverlake, USS Reindeer, USS Brilliant and USS Springfield. This little known hero’s career is summarized in the recent 2013 432 page text by Myron Smith Leroy Fitch: "The Civil War Career of Union Gunboat Commander." Though Fitch died quite young, his naval career is intriguing. A US destroyer, the USS Fitch, was named in his honor and launched June 14th, 1941. CONDITION: Commander Fitch’s 1851 Navy retains nearly all of its restored silver plating on barrel, frame, trigger guard and backstrap. Retains most restored gold gilt on cylinder, rammer, trigger and hammer. Bore is excellent. Screws retain much restored blue finish. Gilding on trigger is period. Case is in excellent condition with beautiful Civil War era engraving with presentation to Commander. Fitch on escutcheon. Casing retains very rare American Flask and Cap Co. slant charger Navy flask with almost all original silver. Silver plated Colt’s patent mold, nipple wrench and package of Colt cartridges for Colt’s Navy pistol. Lining has faded but is mostly intact with some missing where front side rubbed against partition.

According to Flayderman’s Guide to Antique Firearms there were about 28,000 of these fine revolvers produced in the period 1861 to 1873. This revolver appears to have been produced in about 1863, during the height of the Civil War when any type of revolver was in great demand. Although there are no known military contracts for this model of Colt, it’s a safe bet that the majority of the production before the end of the war were private purchase and used during the Civil War. After the war they remained in service, primarily on the Western frontier and are rarely found today in original configuration with any original finish.

(A) Cased & Engraved Colt Model 1849 Single Action Revolver Inscribed to General Chas A. Ducat (1861

Lot #2539 (Sale Order 538 of 667)

This revolver was manufactured in 1861, the first year of the Civil War, for Brigadier General Arthur Charles Ducat Senior of the United States Army. Arthur hailed from Ireland and was appointed Second Lieutenant in the Twelfth Illinois Volunteer Infantry, May 2nd, 1861 and was promoted to 1st Lieutenant and Adjutant on May 11th, Captain on August 1st, and Major on September 24th, totaling three promotions in less than six months. The following year on November 14th, 1862 he was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel, and on March 13th, 1864, for faithful and meritorious services, was promoted to Brevetted Colonel and Brigadier General of the Volunteers. He was honorably discharged February 19th 1864, prior to the end of hostilities. At the onset of the hostilities between the North and the South, he was one of the first to offer substantial aid. One of his hobbies was the studies of military history and science, and was renowned for his knowledge for the art of war, which was the equivalent to any Lieutenant fresh from West Point. He formed a core of 300 engineers, sappers, and miners, along with professionals, and offered them up to the government but was rejected. He then enlisted as a private and became a member of the 12th Illinois Infantry in April of 1861. He was without influence and depended upon his merits for promotion. His regiment seized the strategic point of Cairo, Illinois, and took possession of the Arsenal at St. Louis. Within one month he was commissioned. His troops were the first to occupy Paducah, Kentucky, at Rosecrans' Great Battle of Corinth, where he served as acting chief of staff and was noted for his bravery. Ducat accompanied Rosecrans and his Army of the Ohio at the Siege of Nashville, and the opening of the railway from Nashville to Louisville. General Rosecrans regarded him as an extraordinary man, an excellent tactician, and a soldier by nature. He was even lauded in writing from General Grant. The revolver itself is a beauty to behold. The beautiful scroll engraving appears to be the work of L.D. Nimschke or his shop with the telltale circles around the screws and floral patterns. Five shot cylinder. The frame, hammer, trigger guard, and backstrap exhibit completely engraved surface, as well as the forcing cone. Barrel is 2/3rds engraved. On the backstrap is engraved "General Chas A. Ducat." It is interesting to note that this gun was engraved for his appointment to the rank of general, which did not take place until 1864 which gives pause as to whether this revolver was built and shipped in 1861 or simply serial numbered. The gun is completely silver plated. All full or partial matching numbers on frame, barrel, trigger guard, backstrap, cylinder, wedge, lever, and center pin. CONDITION: Cylinder exhibits nearly entire defined stagecoach scene. All original nipples with remnants of safety pins. Some of the silver is starting to darken. Cylinder face shows virtually no signs have having ever been fired. Revolver displays nearly all of its silver plating. Barrel address is razor sharp, as are edges. Sports a lovely pair of aged one piece ivory grips. Bore is near mint with strong rifling. Has a fine action that locks up tight. Housing in an original period walnut box with purple lining, partitioned for accessories. Accompanied by near mint powder flask, Eley Brothers London cap tin, a blued Colt stamped double cavity bullet mold, and some period lead projectiles.

(A) COLT MODEL 1849 PERCUSSION POCKET REVOLVER ATTRIBUTED TO CAPTAIN HORACE F. MILLS (1865).

Lot #2547 (Sale Order 546 of 667)

For all intents and purposes this is a standard Colt Pocket Model made during the last year of the Civil War. It is accompanied by some history provided by the consignor, whom states this pistol was acquired from the Perry Mills area of New York. He states that his father, who was a doctor, was given this gun by a patient and the son of Captain Mills. It had been in the owners family since shortly after World War II. Also included is the military history of Captain Mills, who enlisted in Albany in 1862 and was promoted to the Captain of the U.S. Colored Troops in 1863. There is nothing on the revolver itself to corroborate this information, only the family's oral history and documentation. The serial number 276062 can be found on the following parts: frame, trigger guard, backstrap, cylinder pin, wedge, and cylinder. CONDITION: That said, the gun is in lovely condition. The octagon barrel retains approximately 60-70% of its original factory bright blue. The lever has traces of case colors. Cylinder stagecoach scene is nearly 100% complete. Safety pins are worn. Has original nipples. Cylinder has turned a soft patina. All legends are razor sharp. The frame colors have darkened and the one piece walnut grips are excellent to near mint. It is obvious that this gun was carried in a holster but does not appear to have seen much use. Action and timing are perfect. Bore is strong and sharp. A fabulous revolver in its own right, with some interesting New York and Colored troop history. An exceptionally clean rig and its association with the Colored Troops which was dramatically exemplified by the Battle of Fort Wagner under Robert Shaw of Boston. CORRECTION: Provenance updated

Manufactured in 1863. Nickle finish with 8" round barrel, full front sight and one line New York, U.S.A. address.

Nickle plated brass trigger guard and iron backstrap contain a varnished one piece walnut grip with last four digits of matching serial number in backstrap channel.

This revolver was manufactured in about 1863 during which time about any big bore revolver was in great demand for the Civil War and the great Westward Expansion. Firearms of that era usually saw very hard service and are rarely found with original finish today. It was probably during this period of use that necessitated being refinished. CONDITION: Fine, all matching including wedge. Overall retains about 95% strong, bright nickel with minor losses around the muzzle and forcing cone areas and face of cylinder. Backstrap shows moderate losses also. Cylinder is matching condition with strong nickel and shows 100% Naval battle scene roll marking.

(A) RARE SHOULDER STOCK CUT MARTIAL COLT MODEL 1851 NAVY PERCUSSION REVOLVER (1857).

Lot #2559 (Sale Order 558 of 667)

This is considered a late Third Model with the enlarged beveled loading cut-out. Has the Colt factory dovetail sight that first appeared on the Third Model. Hartford address on barrel. This Navy falls into the last batch of US Navies between serial number 78500 and 80200 with the small iron trigger guard. Most small iron trigger guard US Navies after serial number 72624 have the Hartford barrel address. This example also has the rare shoulder stock cut out on backstrap with the lanyard loop mounted in front of trigger guard; only 275 of these models were manufactured for shoulder stocks according to the book on Colt 1851 and 1861 Navies by Jordan and Geri. This martial pistol does not have the US stamp on frame, simply Colt's patent. This is considered a Navy-Army with a serial number that falls in between the early purchases and late purchases, and also has the Army inspector "K" stamp on left front trigger bow. The book notes a mere 12 Second Model stocked Old Model Navies. Other features of this rare Navy include a large Naval anchor stamped on right grip (probably not factory), left rear trigger bow has inspector stamp "G" (not listed in book), bottom left side of barrel has a "2". According to the book, the Army did not buy any stocked '51 Navies but the only two inspector marks on the left trigger bow are "K" and "G". The front of the cylinder is stamped with the asterisk. Walnut stocks are oil finish but there are no inspector stamps visible. Full or partial matching serial numbers on frame, barrel, trigger guard, backstrap, cylinder, wedge, loading lever, and cylinder post. CONDITION: All metal on gun is basically a soft, grey patina. Muzzle is slightly worn from holster. The naval battle scene on cylinder is strong and 80% visible. Stocks are in excellent condition and proud to metal. Indexes and locks up correctly. Strong, clean bore. This begs the question: if the Army did not buy stocked Navies, and this has an Army inspector stamp and falls between the two Army purchases, was it purchased and simply not recorded or is it a civilian purchase where a gun was built using an Army inspected small iron trigger guard with lanyard attachment to match the buttstock attachment on backstrap? In either case, it is an extremely rare and clean revolver.

It was waylaid as it was New York style engraved and fitted with one piece ivory grips. Matching serial numbers on frame, trigger guard, backstrap, barrel, wedge, and cylinder post. Cylinder serial number is obscured with pitting.

Many of these revolvers wound up in the hands of Confederate soldiers due to the losses in the Tennessee campaign. CONDITION: It appears as if this revolver was found on a battlefield and there is severe corrosion on the left side, as if it spent many months lying in the dirt before being rescued.

The first of these guns were shipped in crates of 25 and sent to Richmond, Virginia for inspection, and was completed in July of 1863. These transitional models features full octagon barrel with the loading arm now mounted on the left side of frame instead of barrel. They are also referred to as the Old Paris Model as evidenced by the stylized barrel address that is stamped "COL LEMAT Bte SGDG". You will find the early matching serial number 526 stamped on frame, cylinder, and left side of barrel, which is also stamped "LM". It is believed these were all made at LeJay & Massiaux. All these early Paris transition models were made during the Civil War. This revolver has become synonymous with the Confederacy, in particular, Confederate officers, of which it was a favorite sidearm. Perfectly suited to the Cavalry. It is a nine shot .42 caliber percussion with 6-1/2" barrel with a smoothbore 5" barrel in .63 caliber. Serial number range places it directly in the Transition Models (450 to 950).

This high condition Henry Nettleton Cavalry revolver was manufactured in 1878 and Ordnance inspected by John Greer and Henry Nettleton. The fine condition on this revolver leads Mr. Kopec to believe this was possibly a state militia gun.

(A) HIGH CONDITION NEW YORK ENGRAVED ETCHED PANEL COLT FRONTIER SIX SHOOTER (1883) AND FACTORY LETTE

Lot #2578 (Sale Order 577 of 667)

Factory letter states this is one of five consecutive revolvers shipped in .44 caliber with soft finish shipped to Colt's largest New York distributor Hartley & Graham. When these guns were sent with "soft finish" they were being shipped outside the factory for engraving. Often times by the very same engravers or shops as those done in house. In this particular case the distinctive scroll work appears to be the work or of the shop of L.D. Nimschke, who was one of the star Colt engravers from 1850-1900. His scroll work was similar, but also quite different, from his contemporary Colt engraver Cuno Helfricht, who worked for Colt from 1871 to 1921. This revolver has matching numbers on the frame, trigger guard and backstrap. The barrel exhibits the etched panel "Colt Frontier Six Shooter". Frame has the three line patent date. Barrel has the one line patent date. This gun features nearly two thirds period custom engraving, full nickel finish, six shot, single action, fluted cylinder, type two ejector rod head, and beautifully aged one pieced genuine ivory grips. The gun matches the factory letter, the engraving, finish, and ivory grips were done the outside facility refereed to as above. CONDITION: This revolver appears to be nearly unfired since finished, retaining 95% of its beautiful nickel finish that has dulled on grip straps and few high points only. The engraving was masterfully accomplished and the screws retain generous amounts of blue finish. Ivory grips are excellent and turned yellow. Action indexes and locks up with a vault. Has near mint bore. Etched panel is near perfect. Cylinder does have a dragline. This handsome revolver appeared on the cover of the Las Vegas CADA show held July 12th-14th, 1991. The cover of this magazine showing this revolver along with factory letter will accompany with purchase. An outstanding chance to get a factory quality, engraved, black powder Colt at a fraction of the price had the engraving been done within the walls of the Colt factory.

(A) Colt "CUSTER AVENGER" "Troop C, 7th Cavalry" Single Action Army Revolver.

Lot #2580 (Sale Order 579 of 667)

Documented and reviewed by Colt expert John Kopec, Colt Single Action 17561 is attributed to Troop "C" 7th Cavalry. Inspected by A.P. Casey and sub-inspected by W.W. Johnson. This group of guns was issued to the 7th Cavalry replacement troops in October of 1876 and these troops are known as "Custer's Avengers". This revolver, according to John Kopec, is one of the 1197 guns later recalled and refurbished at Springfield Armory in 1895 for re-issue to the State of New York. During this refurbish the guns were cleaned, repaired, and refinished as necessary, giving them a slightly better grade of finish as opposed to the factory Colt finish applied at the factory. It is noted that gun is matching with the exception of the cylinder that is numbered 121047 and is considered to be field mixed by troopers in the field. The butt is marked with New York militia markings applied by the state armorer and it is believed by Mr. Kopec to identify the gun to 19th Separate Company, Signal Corps of the New York State Militia. These historic guns have a very low survival rate as they were utilized by the United States Cavalry and then the state militias. Surviving in the 7-1/2 inch Cavalry configuration and not having been modified to the 5 1/2 inch Artillery configuration makes them a very uncommon indeed. The revolver is accompanied by an original 12 round package of Frankford Arsenal cartridges dated August 1874. The package is sealed, unopened, and is exceptionally fine. CONDITION. Very fine. Over 40% blue finish remains on the barrel with most all blue under ejector rod housing with balance turning dove grey. The frame retains strong case colors in protected areas with typical silvering at high points from period use. The back strap is mostly worn patina with large areas of blue finish in protected area behind hammer. Trigger guard is mostly void of finish with exception of protected area around serial number. The grips are good with no cartouche but are properly serial numbered 7561 within backstrap channel. All markings are legible and bore and mechanics are very good. This revolver has been determined to be a historically correct New York Militia revolver by John Kopec and would be a great centerpiece to any collection of US Colt Single actions or Western Americana collection. This revolver is accompanied by the 2-page Kopec letter, the rare 1874 box of cartridges, and an NRA Ten Best Arms Exhibition Award coin, numbered 442.

(A) HIGH CONDITION HENRY NETTLETON U.S. CALVARY COLT SINGLE ACTION ARMY (1878).

Lot #2581 (Sale Order 580 of 667)

Full or partial matching serial numbers can be found on frame, trigger guard, backstrap, bottom of barrel, and cylinder. "HN" inspector stamp for Henry Nettleton can be found on the bottom of barrel, frame, trigger guard, backstrap, and cylinder. Left side of frame has the three line patent address along with a U.S. stamp. Left trigger bow has a "VP" triangle indicating the revolver was returned for repair at one time. Both sides of the original one piece oil finished walnut grips have inspector marks. Left side is dated 1878. Right side of the grip is stamped "HN" for Henry Nettleton. CONDITION: Following are some notes on this revolver taken from the John Kopec accompanying letter. John dates this manufacture to July 17th, 1878. "This revolver displays most of its original blue and case colored finish. The barrel shows most of its military blue finish with prominent feathering markings adjacent to front sight. The case colors of the frame remain brilliant in all areas except for the top-strap which shows some holster drag. The cylinder displays much of its original blue finish, which remains stronger in the flutes. The grips of this example remain in near perfect condition showing the ordnance inspector's cartouches in immaculate condition. The ejector tube has lost only a small amount of blue finish at the very tip." John believes these were released as surplus from unissued inventories. He advances the belief that at least two unopened of one hundred revolvers of these brand new Henry Nettleton revolvers were discovered in Ordnance stores circa May 1922, which accounts for many of these beautiful condition Henry Nettleton revolvers remaining today. He also states that the Colt was refitted for the hammer and trigger at the factory late pre-war or early post-war years, hence the "VP" proof. He goes on to state that the hammer was not removed because of a frozen front guard screw. He also makes note to the light screwdriver scarring adjacent to front trigger guard screw and some minor marring of the left front frame screw head. There are minor surface scars, high edge wear at muzzle, ejector, and cylinder. Cylinder has dragline. One could fairly easily restore the original style hammer and trigger to this gun, if they so possessed. The action indexes and locks up like a bank vault. The bore is near mint. Also features the early screw in black powder frame and donut ejector rod head. Even the trigger guard and backstrap retain the majority of their factory applied blue finish with some freckling on backstrap. This is one of the finest Nettleton era Colts one could hope to find and will be a bell-ringer in any collection.

(A) NEW YORK ENGRAVED COLT SINGLE ACTION ARMY REVOLVER (1881) AND FACTORY LETTER.

Lot #2582 (Sale Order 581 of 667)

Factory letter indicates serial No. 68648 was shipped soft, in .45 caliber; barrel length not listed (indicating standard 7-1/2"), and was shipped to Hartley & Graham, New York, one of Colt's largest distributors, on April 1st, 1881 in a shipment of 25 guns. The work "soft" indicates the frame and gate were not case hardened and left in soft condition to be engraved by the dealer. In most cases, the engraver or his shop were the same as those used within the factory walls; in this case the engraving is distinctly the pattern of Cuno Helfricht or his shop. Revolver exhibits two-thirds engraving in a floral and punch dot pattern with lovely decorative borders and shell designs. Revolver has full or partial matching numbers on barrel, frame, trigger guard, backstrap and cylinder. Cylinder number is stamped on back of cylinder with three digits, 648, rather than the usual side placement. The letter "E" is stamped under serial number on trigger guard, and the letter "F" under serial number on frame. The letter "E" was often stamped on percussion pistols to indicate engraving. Finished in full nickel plate and fitted with a pair of ivory grips Has three line patent date, second style ejector head, and early type hammer. CONDITION: Gun has the appearance of nearly 95% nickel plating, but when you examine the grip straps you can see that some of the metal is patina but blends so perfectly with the nickel that it just appears to be a bit duller. Other than the straps, balance of the revolver appears to retains fully 95% dealer applied nickel finish with sharp legends. The grips have shrunk and have turned a mustard color; there is a 1/4" chip at left front toe. Revolver does not appear to have seen much use as there is very little cylinder face burn. Bore exhibits strong lands and grooves with some light abrasion. These New York engraved guns were engraved by the same shops that worked within the Colt walls and offer a superb opportunity to acquire an incredible engraved example at a far better price than those engraved within the dome. This early example is a true showcase.

(A) High Condition Colt Etched Panel Frontier Six Shooter Single Action Army Revolver (1888) and Fac

Lot #2583 (Sale Order 582 of 667)

One of the most desirable of all Colt Single Action Armies are the scarce and beautiful blue and case colored black powder frame etched panel .44's. This example is exceptional in all respects. You will find full matching serial numbers on frame, trigger guard, and backstrap. Colt was no longer numbering the cylinders and barrels at this time. Has the type 2 ejector rod head, screw in black powder frame, and Colt eagle gutta percha grips. Trigger bow stamped .44 cal, bottom of barrel stamped .44. Blue and case colored finish. According to factory letter, this revolver was shipped with four other guns on October 2nd, 1888 to one of the largest midwest distributors, Hibbard, Spencer, Bartlett, and Co., Chicago, in .44 caliber with a 7 - 1/2" barrel, blue finish, and rubber stocks. We removed the stocks and the number 7007 is written inside base of right panel. One thing that should be understood is that Colt very seldom sent revolvers to smaller companies and if they did, the price was much higher. Therefore, a majority of the Colts purchased west of the Mississippi at this time were ordered by small gun shops from the larger distributors in Chicago, New York, St. Louis, and Cincinnati as well as large West Coast suppliers in California. Therefore, it is just as likely that this was ordered by a small firm in Kansas as its chances of remaining in Chicago. CONDITION: The etched panel is near perfect, and one of the best we have seen on a blued gun. Barrel retains approximately 85-90% of the original factory high polish blue. Ejector rod retains 50% of the original factory high polish blue. 70% blue on trigger guard, thinning on straps, with some nice high polish blue on top of backstrap. Frame has three line patent address with early type 1 hammer. Hammer retains approximately 75% case colors. Frame retains approximately 35% case colors, balance having greyed out. Razor sharp barrel legends. Generous amounts of fire blue on screw heads. Cylinder retains 40% of original blue, balance toned. Has all four perfect Colt clicks, locks up like a vault, with a near mint bore with sharp lands and grooves and a tiny hint of light frosting which may clean. Grips are perfectly fitted in near mint condition with no chips. Because the blue finish is far more fragile than nickel, it is extremely difficult to find a blackpowder frame with etched panel in the blue and case color configuration that retains this much of the original condition. This example would be a prize in any collection of early, high condition Colts.

Serial No. 344 was shipped on August 17th, 1878 in a shipment of five guns to B. Kittredge Arms Co. in nickel finish with 7-1/2" barrel, .45 Colt and was furnished with Omnipotent roll mark (etched on barrel) with stocks not listed. This was only the second shipment of Omnipotents to Kittredge and the first with nickel guns as stated in "Colt’s Double Action Revolver Model of 1878" by Don Wilkerson, page 235. The factory historical letter details this gun as shown in the shipping records. An accompanying factory letter for a blue gun, number 212 (with 344 added) states “the serial numbers of the other four numbers are 322, 286, 323 and 340. The five nickel numbers are 319, 344, 290, 215 and 335”. The so-called early-fat grip checkered walnut grips were standard at that time. The gun exists today, just as listed in letter with nickel finish, fire blue trigger, back of hammer and screws; and finished with a lanyard ring. Barrel address is sharp. ".45 CAL" is stamped on left front trigger bow. Matching serial number on bottom of barrel and back of cylinder. The "OMNIPOTENT" legend is slightly worn but completely visible with all letters intact. Barrel retains approximately 90% original nickel, factory finish with light muzzle wear. 90% finish on frame turning grey forward of cylinder on both sides, with handling marks on both sides. Cylinder retains approximately 80% original nickel with wear on ends and bubbling/flaking on balance. Grips are excellent with usual minor dings. Indexes correctly. Fine, clean bore with minor abrasion. Generous amounts of fire blue. The term "Omnipotent" was coined by the Kittredge firm as a sales tool. It is arguably one of the scarcest and most in-demand Model 1878's ever made with a total production estimated at less than 160. These are seldom seen and eagerly sought and sports the so-called fat grip found only on First Models.This well- known example is also documented on page 135 of the book “Colt And It’s Collectors” (2003) and was a key specimen of the award winning best known collection of this model.

Top gullet of the ejector housing is engraved in snake & dot patterns with a simple vine pattern on the outer radius. Sides of the trigger guard are engraved with snake & dot patterns. Cylinder is engraved with Mr. Helfricht’s trademark alternating patterns on lands between flutes with a snake & dot pattern around the rear edge.

Very few of these revolvers survive today and of those extremely few are engraved.

(A) Historic 1st Colt Model 1892 Civilian Shipment Serial No. 10001 Double Action Revolver.

Lot #2588 (Sale Order 587 of 667)

All of the following information is taken from the definitive book on these revolvers, written by Robert Best, titled "A Study of Colt's New Army & Navy Pattern Double Action Revolvers 1889 to 1908". For all intents and purposes, at first glance, this revolver appears to be a standard US issue that features the six shot fluted cylinder with stop notches. The left side frame, bottom of left grip, back of cylinder and bottom of barrel are stamped "RAC" for Renaldo Carr. Butt is stamped "US ARMY MODEL 1892". Additional stampings include "P1" under the barrel, "K1" on the cylinder release, and "12-16" written in pencil inside both grips. The back of the cylinder is also stamped "1" and "P". On June 16th, 1892, the Army awarded Colt a contract for 5,000 of the new Double Action Army Model of 1892. This first 5,000 guns were delivered by July 31st, 1893 and serial numbered 1 to 5000. An additional 3,000 revolvers were delivered by December 31st, 1893 for a total of 8,000 revolvers and two contracts, serial numbers 1 to 8000. Colt then started production and shipment of the Civilian Model 1892 from December of 1892 to June of 1894. Colt skipped to serial number 10001 after numbering five previous revolvers. The first civilian revolver was delivered on December 9th, 1892. Beverly Haynes at Colt's Historical Records Units confirmed there was no shipping data between numbers 8000 and 10000 serial range. Of these 8,000 military shipped Colts, approximately 7,496 were recalled for alteration to the Model 1894 specifications. This revolver was not modified. There is numerous information about Colt using parts on hand, and it is apparent Colt used existing military stamped parts to build the first ever shipped Civilian Model. You have serial number on the cylinder release, back of cylinder, and "P1" on bottom of the barrel; that further confirm that Colt serial number 10001 was the first civilian shipped Colt that was actually built with US Army marked parts. In addition, there is no final inspector mark on the left side of the grip as is found on all 8,000 military contract models. It is not surprising that the first ever Colt civilian shipped 1892 that was built using surplus parts, and as a civilian model would not have been shipped back for the 1894 upgrade. The familiar pony in circle found on many civilian models is not present, as that space is occupied by the "RAC" inspector mark. CONDITION: This revolver was found in a wall during renovation at an old home in Philadelphia and its condition nearly unimprovable. Barrel has a slight rub on bottom, otherwise retaining 95% of the bright commercial type blue finish. The frame has some overall high edge wear and retains fully 95% high polish blue. Backstrap has a bit of thinning and remains at 80%. Trigger guard retains 95%. Inner grip frame retains approximately 85% with a few scratches and back of trigger guard, probably from some one wearing a ring. Cylinder remains at approximately 75-80%. Still retains nearly all the fire blue on screws. Traces of fire blue on trigger. 95% fire blue on hammer. Grips are near mint. Action like new. Bore is near mint. This is probably the finest condition, unaltered Model 1892 and extremely historic in the fact it is the first 1892 Colt listed as civilian shipped. Factory research lists this revolver being shipped as a 6" blued .38 with wood stocks, shipped to Captain V. McNally, Ordnance Department, USA on December 29th, 1892 in a three gun shipment.

Factory letter states this revolver was shipped in a one gun shipment on May 12th, 1892 to Frank S. Taggart & Co. as a 7-1/2", nickel, .32 caliber with stocks not listed. The .32 caliber was introduced in 1884 and was not an immediate hit, therefore it is extremely difficult to find .32 caliber Armies in the antique serial range with black powder frame; and even more difficult to find in factory nickel with long barrel. This is one of the nicest examples of these that we have seen. This is a full nickel variation with the nickel hammer and trigger. CONDITION: Overall, retains approximately 90% or better factory nickel with razor sharp legends. Left side of the barrel has a little area of salt and pepper and some thinning at muzzle. Cylinder has light drag line and light bubbling/frosting at both rear sides of frame. Nearly all bright blue on screws. Even that straps have the majority of the factory nickel, blending with gunmetal. A pair of near mint unnumbered Colt checkered gutta percha grips that fit precisely. All screws are fairly true with the majority of their nitre blue finish, as is cylinder pin. The traverse pin was introduced in 1892 but this revolver was built with the black powder screw-in frame. Strong, near mint rifled bore. Action is as new. This is the best condition factory nickel .32 long barrel we have ever had.

With the addition of the 4 - 3/4" barrel, we are offering, for what might be the first time, a blued etched panel in all three standard barrel lengths. We do not know the production of the 4 - 3/4" and 5 - 1/2" etched panels but they are at least twice as rare as the 7 - 1/2". Partially due to the fact that these two barrel lengths were not even offered until 1875 and the etched panel was only offered until 1888, leaving a scant 13 years where the two could mix. According to factory letter, this was one of a six gun shipment sent to one of Colt's largest Midwest retailers - Hibbard, Spencer, Bartlett, and Co., Chicago and was shipped in .44 caliber with 4 - 3/4" barrel, blue finish, and rubber grips, which is how it remains today.

It was shipped on October 25th,1884 and listed as a 7-1/2" blue .45 with rubber grips. The backstrap is engraved by hand "GEMERTS(?) JACK 1885". This fine condition early revolver comes with a plethora of printed information about a doctor in Dodge City and his exploits during this era, but none of the information nor the name has anything to do with the paper. Therefore, we do not see the tie-in associated with this gun, and as such, we are offering simply as a very fine example of an early 1880's civilian Colt revolver. Everything else included with the exception of the factory letter is quite interesting but cannot be any factual attribution, although the carving on backstrap appears to be of the period.

This black powder framed etched panel single action is the "sister" gun to serial number 129420 attributed by serial number and picture in R.L. Wilson's book "Colt Pistols 1836....1976" on page 192. The gun is currently in a complete state of restoration and is currently silver plated. Under detailed examination and minor disassembly it is found that matching serial numbers are found on frame, trigger guard, and backstrap. No markings are observed on barrel beneath ejector housing, side of trigger guard or on grip frame beneath grips. an assembly number (803) is observed on interior of loading gate. All serial numbers have been re-stamped during period of restoration. During the restoration liberties were taken in the engraving pattern with the addition of a 1-3/4" rope pattern with dot punch background on barrel sides as well as the omission of the chiseled border in the lower gullet of the frame beneath the cylinder pin. The Mother of Pearl grips are certainly period with the Mexican snake and eagle motif carved on the right side but do not match its "sister gun" featured in the previous picture listed in R.L. Wilson's book on page 192. CONDITION: Very fine as fully restored. The silver plated finish is fully intact and the engraving is skillfully executed. The Mother of Pearl grips are period to manufacture but are well worn with numerous small chips at edges and a 1/4" leaf chip at top corner of right grip. The carving is worn and not well defined as well as the grips are undersized with worn corners. The bore is excellent with sharp rifling and the presence of silver plating in the bore is a testament to its recent restoration. The chambers are consistent with the bore including the presence of silver plate on its interior. The action is very smooth and crisp with solid lock-up. The "COLT FRONTIER SIX SHOOTER" etched panel is very pronounced and is a faithful recreation of the original marking. A very attractive and well documented antique Texas associated revolver.

(A) Cased Colt Model 1878 Double Action Revolver.

Lot #2604 (Sale Order 603 of 667)

The .476 cartridge was developed because the bullet of the .455 failed to seal the bore in the Enfield revolver. It was approved in December of 1881 for the Enfield Mk III.

Caliber of this revolver is marked on the left front trigger guard, which was moved to barrel in 1890. A total of 2,458 Model 1878 Colts were made in this caliber. 1,682 were manufactured in this configuration, there were no Model 1878 revolvers in .476 caliber engraved or ordered with special features as this was sold as a military revolver with no frills. The top of the barrel has the Pall Mall London address. Every cylinder chamber has the English proof mark. Standard features include six shot, double action, blued finish, Colt black composite grips, and lanyard ring. CONDITION: Revolver retains approximately 75% of the original factory blue finish, blending with soft brown homogeneous patina. Indexes and locks up like new with a bright, shiny bore.

(A) COLT MODEL 1860 LONG FLUTE CONVERSION REVOLVER.

Lot #2605 (Sale Order 604 of 667)

Offered is another Colt conversion rarity along with the Long Cylinder and Theur Conversions, this is a long flute, centerfire conversion Colt Model 1860 Army. If one questions the rarity, we have included the original ad from when this gun was sold by Collector's Corner of Albuquerque, New Mexico in their August 1958 advertisement, they write "Richards Conversion full fluted cylinder Army. Yes, seeing is believing. No. 4607, floating firing pin, no finish but no pits, a nice clean piece. $1,250". In that same ad, they have a 15% blue Henry at $435 and a 75% Model 1866 Winchester at $195; just to show how rare and valued this gun was nearly 60 years ago this month. This gun has matching serial numbers on frame, barrel, brass trigger guard and steel backstrap. Loading gate has "2327". Wedge is not marked. Fluted cylinder is not numbered but does have the patent date. This is correct as the serial numbers in this range were numbered on the back of the cylinder which would have been cut off in the conversion process. It is a Richards style conversion with one piece walnut grips. CONDITION: Basically all grey patina with razor sharp legends. Grips are slightly shy to metal. Brass shows no signs of plating. The patina on cylinder matches the balance of gun perfectly. The majority of screws are marred. Gun indexes perfectly. Strong, defined rifled bore with frosting and light black powder abrasion. We can find no other photographed examples of the long flute conversion in McDowell's book on conversions. This is a true conversion that is probably one of a kind and manufactured using a leftover long flute cylinder. Probably a once in a lifetime find. Barrel Length: 8" Caliber/Bore: .44 CF FFL Status: Antique Manufacturer: Colt Model: 1860 Paperwork: Yes Serial Number: 4607Condition: Dimensions: CORRECTION: After further research and evaluation. It has been determined that this first pattern Richard’s Conversion was in fact made in 1871 but remains an extremely rare variation utilizing a fluted Army cylinder chambered for the rare .44 Martin’s centerfire cartridge.

Colt Firearms 14 Karat Gold Topped Presentation Cane (1905).

Lot #2612 (Sale Order 611 of 667)

The gold knob on this cane is inscribed "Colonel from the Colts 1905". It is 14 karat gold and is hallmarked and serial numbered 1191. The staff has a black enamel finish with a metal tip and is in near mint condition. The fact that it was presented simply to "Colonel", the two most famous men in 1905 that were referred to as "Colonel" by just about everyone, with affection, were Colonel Cody and Colonel Teddy Roosevelt who had resigned as Secretary of the Navy to become Colonel to lead the Rough Riders during the Spanish-American War, after which he was referred to as "Colonel" by all of his close friends. The second area of note is the date of 1905 which was the year Teddy Roosevelt was inaugurated for his first full term as an elected president. The fact that is was affectionately inscribed from "the Colts" indicating the family, rather than the company, and his long association with the Colt family and Colt firearms leads us to at least consider the possibility that this cane was given personally by the Colt family to newly elected president Teddy Roosevelt. That said, we have no definitive proof that this is the case and is only a summation that is backed with solid logic within this time frame. It is still a fine, 14 karat gold presentation cane from the Colt's family. Comes in what appears to be its original canvas cover. A fine and rare example of Colt memorabilia.Condition: Dimensions:

(A) U.S. ID MARKED REMINGTON MODEL 1875 REVOLVER.

Lot #2618 (Sale Order 617 of 667)

This revolver is basically a standard factory nickel Model 1875 single action revolver in factory nickel plate with two piece walnut grips. These were made from 1875 to 1889. This revolver has mid-to-late-production features such as standard blade front, cone shaped firing pin and caliber stamped on left trigger bow. According to history, Remington at serial number 12000 reverted back to serial number 1, it is also known that in January of 1883 Remington accepted a contract and delivered approximately 639 nickel plated guns to the U.S. Interior Department for issue to Indian Police and/or Western reservations. Usual marks on this gun include the "1875" stamp on left grip indicating model not year, and left side of frame is stamped, using individual dies, "U.S.I.D.". The serial number 412 is stamped inside both grip panels, inside frame, on back of cylinder and loading gate. Thorough research could not find any other example with the "U.S.I.D." stamp nor the 1875 on grip. It is unknown if this was a prototype for the original order nor who, what, when or where these markings were applied, although they appear to be contemporary to gun's manufacture. CONDITION: The one line barrel address is strong. Gun retains 75% or better original nickel finish. Excellent condition indexes and locks up fine with strong rifling, albeit some light corrosion in grooves. With no other matching examples, it is impossible to determine when and by whom these markings were applied. The areas where nickel is not present is mixed with light grey patina. Screws still retain generous amounts of nitre blue. A beautiful and famous revolver that is associated and attributed to the Indian Reservation police. In the Flayderman book, Norm states that how these guns were marked is undetermined.

(A) RARE REMINGTON MODEL 1890 SINGLE ACTION ARMY REVOLVER.

Lot #2619 (Sale Order 618 of 667)

Nickel finish with 5-5/8" barrel, nickel silver front sight and one line “REMINGTON ARMS CO. ILION, N.Y.”. Left side of barrel is marked “44 W”. Butt strap is mounted with a factory swivel stud and ring. Mounted with two piece checkered hard rubber grips that have the raised Remington trademark at the top on each side. According to "Flayderman's Guide to Antique Firearms", there were only about 2,020 of these rare revolvers produced 1891 to 1896. The Model 1890 was the successor to the 1875/1888 Single Action Army revolvers and could have been serious competition for the Colt Single Action Army revolver. Unfortunately for Remington the introduction of their large bore cartridge revolver came after the Colt Model 1873 was well established with the military and the buying public. Remington was never able to generate military contracts for their revolver which seriously depressed sales, not only to the military but to the buying public as well. That fact coupled with Remington’s initial introduction of their revolver in a proprietary caliber (.44 Remington) further limited sales. By the time the Model 1890 revolver was introduced, the large bore revolver was rapidly falling out of favor, primarily following the introduction of semi-automatic pistols and double action revolvers. By 1895, Remington sales had dwindled to only a few per month, and so they discontinued this model in 1896. CONDITION: Fine. Overall retains generous amount of factory nickel with typical losses at muzzle and grip straps. Cylinder has most finish remaining with several very light areas of light flaking. Bore and chambers have slight roughness but a strong bore with darkness in grooves. Grips are very fine with even wear but are full sized and without cracks or material loss. Action is very crisp with solid lock up. Markings are sharp and legible.

Blue finish with 7-1/2" round barrel, pinched post front sight and “E. REMINGTON & SONS ILION N.Y. U.S.A.” address. Left upper front side of frame and outside rear edge of cylinder are stamped with a small “R” and the barrel with a small five pointed star on left side at the frame. These marks are indicative of the Egyptian contract. Mounted with twp piece walnut grips numbered in pencil inside each grip and strong "JWR" cartouche on left grip. Buttstrap is mounted with a lanyard stud and ring. This revolver is one of the 10,000 pieces contracted from Remington by the Egyptian Government which, to date, have proven very elusive, scarce and hard to find. It is believed, perhaps, that given the fact that Egypt was in the rears in payments of previous contracts with Remington that it is likely only a few of these pieces were produced and therefore leading to their extreme scarcity. This is an oustanding example of the Egyptian contract Model 1875 Remington. CONDITION: Very fine with matching grips. Barrel and web retain most of their original factory blue, somewhat thinned on barrel, stronger in sheltered areas, strong and bright on the web. Frame retains generous amounts of original blue, having flaked, and lightly worn to a medium blue-brown patina. Trigger guard retains most of its strong original blue. Hammer retains about all of its brilliant case colors, somewhat thinned on left side from contact with the frame. Front and back straps are a grey patina. Grips are sound showing light wear and retain most of their original oil finish. Safety notch is missing from hammer, ejector spring is not present, otherwise mechanics are fine, with a bright shiny bore.

Lot consists of: two revolvers that feature top break, six shot, single action, blued finish. Enclosed is a copy of the Roy Jinks letter on both revolvers. Serial number 28983 was shipped from factory August 12th, 1896 delivered to Takata & Co., Yokohama, Japan. Shipped with 6-1/2" barrel, blued finish, lanyard ring in butt and black hard rubber grips. Serial number 31303 was also shipped to Takata & Co. on October 28th, 1896, a little over two months after the first gun; shipped in the same configuration. Roy Jinks wrote these letters on behalf of Smith & Wesson on May 27th, 1999. On the left side of both barrels you will find engraved Japanese Kanji and interpreted in a letter by Yasuhiko Kaji, M.D., Ph.D. who was living in Toledo, Ohio at the time; "Emperor (Superior Position) presents (gives down) this item to his servant (lower position) Yamagata Aritomo (recipients name)". Yamagata Aritomo was born a samurai in 1838 under Emperor Meiji, who rose to the position of prime minister before the turn of the century. Around the approximate time of shipment of these guns. Prior to that, he was a military leader of great renown and was considered the "Architect" of the modern Japanese Army following the of Japan. His military post included field commander, assistant vice minister of military affairs, Army minister in the 1870's, chief of general staff beginning in 1878, and eventually a full general. Sometime after the delivery of these two weapons in 1896, the emperor commissioned a Japanese artisan, upon which the guns were engraved with the Kanji presentation, light sporadic scroll engraving that can be found on every area of the weapon including frame, barrel, cylinder and backstrap. The guns were finished in a rich royal blue finish after which he applied gold damascene border around sides of both left and right frame. The hammer and trigger guard were beautifully case colored and both revolvers sport two piece relief carved real Mother of Pearl grips with roses and rose leaves. CONDITION: Barrels and frame retain virtually all of their custom reapplied blue finish performed at time of engraving. (B) Cylinder exhibits several striations while (A) simply has a light drag line. Grips are near mint with no chips or cracks that we can see, with the exception of (A) that has a forward toe repair (minor) and grips have darkened a bit more. Both guns have near mint, shiny bores with sharp rifling and index correctly. Accompanying these revolvers is a copy of the letter from John Snyder, business manager OGCA dated May 14th, 1999 requesting information on these guns from Roy Jinks; a photocopy of the Emperor Meiji as a young man, taken in 1868 as well as an image of Yamagata Arimoto; numerous copies of photographs of this pair; copies of pages from the book "Japan's Secret Imperial Conspiracy" dealing with Yamagata; and a catalog "Old Town Station Dispatch No. 7" from the year 2000 with a picture of these revolvers on the cover of the catalog. They were offered at one time for sale by Jim Supica for the princely sum of $50,000 at the turn of this century. This set of pistols is currently housed in a leather carry case. The revolvers themselves are not accompanied by any lineage history aside from factory letter and how they were presented in 1999-2000.

Lot #2630 (Sale Order 629 of 667)

This fine condition revolver is standard in all respects with the high post front sight, blued finish, six shot, double action, top break with smooth walnut grips, and lanyard ring. The top of the barrel is stamped with the retailer "Boss & Co 75. St. James St, London".

The frame retains 70% original high polish blue. Left side of frame is stamped "Webley Patents W&S" with their winged bullet logo. "Captain J. Summers" engraved on the left side. Right side of frame has the "BV" crown proof. Grip straps have greyed out. Extremely sharp bore. Cylinder indexes and locks up as new. This revolver comes in an original brown flap holster that has four factory attached cartridge loops. The W.G. Army revolver with 6" barrel was a favorite with the British officers and known for its accuracy and dependability. The Royal Air Corps became the Royal Air Force in 1918. What makes this revolver unique is the historical significance of events surrounding Captain Summers and his place in history. Captain J. Summers was born in Shameen, Canton China in 1894. As a young man, he joined the Royal Flying Corps in April of 1915. He was a commissioned second Lieutenant and received his aviator license No. 2154 December 13th of that year. While flying his Sopwith Camel on a mission on August 12th of 1918, he was shot down by none other than Lothar Von Richthofen, the brother of the famed Red Baron, Manfred. The victory was to be Von Richthofen's last. Summers survived the crash and was sent to the German prison camp but this was the age of chivalry and cavaliers and Summers was actually entertained by Von Richthofen and the entire Flying Circus that had gained so much fame under Lothar's brother, the Red Baron. Summers was released in December of 1918 but remained with the RAF and was commissioned Captain in August of 1919, retiring from the service in 1943. During his exploits as a flyer in World War I, he was credited with eight victories (kills) and was awarded the military cross. A brief history of Lothar shows he was active as a flyer from 1914 to 1918. When comparing the two brothers, Lothar is considered the better of the two. He scored 24 victories in the skies in 47 days while flying with the Red Baron and was credited with 40 confirmed kills. His victory over Summers on August 12th, 1918 was to be his final one, occurring less than four months after the death of his brother at the hands of another British Ace Albert Ball, who was also a member of Summers' 209th Fighter Squadron at the time. A beautiful revolver with a storied history. Since Captain Summers spent the remainder of the war as a POW it is unknown if this revolver was carried and returned to him or was purchased soon after. He did not have a revolver in his possession as a POW but in all likelihood the Germans returned his weapon at the end of hostilities. Sold with numerous original and printed documents, including a copy of "Practical Air Navigation", a book Summers wrote and published in 1942.

(A) Cased Bittner Model 1893 Repeating Pistol.

Lot #2634 (Sale Order 633 of 667)

Designed by Gustav Bittner, who came from a family of gunsmiths back to the 17th century, who founded a factory with his brother in 1860 in Bohemia. Bittner developed a special cartridge, which had a lip liner which was designated the 7.7x17 Bittner. While often called the Model 1893, in the German book it is referred to as the Model 1896, as the gun was patented in 1896 in Prague. Built with an octagon barrel, sights consist of an adjustable rear with graduations from 50-150 meters, and a high dovetail front sight, checkered walnut grips, checkered panels, ring lever activated trigger, and swivel in butt. Right side of frame stamped Patent Bittner with logo. These are the only external markings visible. Pistol was loaded through a special five shot clip with ejection out the base.

(A) C. Sharps & Co. Model 2 Pocket Pistol Attributed to Walt Whitman.

Lot #2635 (Sale Order 634 of 667)

Sharps features a 4 barrel cluster that pulls straight out with release button for loading. The four position firing pin is operational. Features brass frame with spur trigger and finely checkered walnut grips. Has matching numbers on barrel and frame. On the backstrap is engraved "Walt Whitman 1870". The engraving is in fancy script and appears factory done. No manipulation of surface and brass is the correct color with no toning or changes preceeding the color. It is our opinion that this inscription is original and period to the pistol. It was obviously well used over its period of ownership and appears to have spent its life in someone's pocket. To some it may seem unusual that someone gave a pocket pistol to the famed poet, most noted for his treatise entitled "Leaves of Grass". Mr. Whitman is considered by most of the scholarly crowd to be the greatest American poet of the 19th century. Whitman was a fervent Unionist. Whitman was a well-known pacifist. When writing his poem on the death of Abraham Lincoln, entitled "O Captain, My Captain", his fame skyrocketed as a respected poet. Whitman was at the height of his popularity in 1870 and it is feasible that the pistol was a gift from an admirer. The pistol was displayed at the National Firearms Museum in 2003 in an exhibit entitled "Exceptional Arms" alongside other pieces such as a rifle belonging to Teddy Roosevelt and Serial Number 1,000,000 M1 Garand. He is often claimed as America's first poet of democracy and his name is arguably one of the most noted of all 19th century writers. CONDITION: Barrels show traces of original blue but are basically brown with salt and pepper finish. Traces of silver plating on frame. Checkered walnut grips are excellent. Bores are decent, fully operational. This pistol is housed in a specially made book binding with leather spine entitled "Exigency / Walt Whitman / Washington 1870". When the French fitted case is opened there is a small plaque that reads "A Pacifist But Not A Fool". This is the first literary attachment to a firearm that we have offered and is sure to please any scholarly English major or poetry fan.

RARE WINCHESTER MODEL 1875 "GOLDEN TOOL" RELOADING TOOL WITH ORIGINAL BOX.

Lot #2659 (Sale Order 658 of 667)

The Model 1875 "Golden Reloading Tool" from Winchester is one of the unicorns of collecting. Most collectors, including myself, have never owned one of these rare tools, much less an example in its proper box with label. Marked 44 W.C.F on side of hinge with "PAT OCT,20 1874" on bottom of hinge. Cast iron construction with provisions for decapping, capping, and seating a fresh bullet. This tool was offered for the new Winchester Model 1873 chambered for the new .44 Winchester Center Fire cartridges. Early repeaters, like the Henry Rifle and the Model 1866 Winchester, were chambered in .44 Rimfire. The technology of these lever action rifles gave an individual unprecedented firepower compared to a single shot muzzle loader. However, the fault with this new technology was in the rimfire ammunition casings which were completely useless once fired. Out on the frontier, you couldn't reload the spent rimfire ammuntion, the nearest town with a hardware store might be hundreds of miles away, and if you ran out of ammunition, you were pretty much doomed in the wrong situation. This is one of the many reasons why Winchester introduced the Model 1873 with a new type of powerful fixed ammunition called the 44 W.C.F. It had a central primer which could be removed and replaced with a new one...add some powder and a fresh bullet and...you and your rifle were back in business. The survival rate of these tools is obviously very low, as only pictures are most often seen, and rarely is one seen in person. This example has the early 1875 decapping pin with square cuts on the side of the decapper as opposed to the later round cuts on the later 1882 variation. The tool is housed in the original 1875 box with complete label. The end of the box has 75% of the .44 Winchester label remaining. The corners are fully intact but have been repaired at some earlier time by some unknown conservator. CONDITION: Very fine as the tool retains over 85% of the original gold tone paint with slight losses from storage. The mechanism works properly and shows no indication of cleaning or restoration. The decapper is very good with a slight amount of corrosion around the retaining screw. The box is superb with wonderful labels. Slight surface wear from ages and slight soiling from storage. Evidence of prior corner repairs internally as noted. Truly one of the ultimate rarities in the Winchester collecting field.Condition: Dimensions:
