serial #38405SA, 45 Colt, 5 1/2" barrel with a bright excellent bore. The blued surfaces retain about 94% original finish with most of the loss due to areas thinning to gray patina along the gripstraps, some light holster wear along the barrel and cylinder and a few spots of cleaned light pinprick pitting and a couple tiny dings along some of the high edges of the triggerguard and cylinder. The frame retains about 95% original handsome case-hardened colors showing a few errant freckles and very sparsely scattered specks of minor oxidation staining, the colors muting very slightly overall. The polished sides of the hammer remain mostly bright showing some light operational wear and handling marks and all markings remain crisp and clear. The black checkered synthetic grips with Rampant Colt and Federal Eagle are scratch-numbered "733" and remain in very fine condition showing some scattered very light dings, handling marks and some areas a tad shy of the frame. The cylinder is matching the frame and the action seems to function well mechanically with excellent timing and lock-up. An attractive Second Generation with strong condition that can still be enjoyed at the range. (13B9740-46) {C&R} (1500/2000)

serial #65238SA, 357 Magnum, 5 1/2" barrel with a bright excellent bore. The blued surfaces retain about 96-97% original finish with most of the loss due to sparsely scattered specks of light oxidation staining, the backstrap with a little bit of scattered fine pinprick pitting, a few light handling marks and minor operational wear along the cylinder. The frame retains about 95-96% original lovely vibrant case-hardened colors, the loss again just due to some specks of light oxidation staining scattered about, a bit more noticeable on the right side along with some faint muting along the loading gate. The polished sides of the hammer remain mostly bright showing a few minor freckles and all markings are crisp and clear. The black checkered synthetic grips with Rampant Colt and Federal Eagle are scratch-numbered to the gun and remain in excellent condition perhaps showing one or two minor handling marks. The cylinder is matching the frame and the action seems to function well mechanically with excellent timing and lock-up. A very handsome Magnum Single Action Army revolver.

serial #362385, 44 WCF, 24'' octagon barrel with a very good bore which shows strong rifling and with scattered pitting, its full-length. This is a very attractive Model '92 overall. The barrel and magazine tube retain perhaps 95% original blue, the loss due to even fading, flaking to brown and wear on the sharp edges. There are two small areas of light pitting on the right diagonal flats about 8'' from the muzzle. The nosecap shows some strong fading original blue with the frame worn to gray in the carry point on the belly, each of the flats with perhaps 85% original blue. The blue on the bolt remains strong with trace fire blue on the loading gate and excellent color case-hardening on the lever flats and sides of the hammer. The buttplate as well shows some strong color case-hardening, worn to a case-hardened patina at the heel and toe. The buttstock shows much original varnish and rates very good to fine with the overall expected light dings and handling marks that come from a field-used arm, a couple small areas of varnish loss on the sides of the wrist, perhaps from a solvent. The forend rates very good as well and is unmolested with much original varnish and the overall expected light dings and handling marks. The original silver blade front sight is intact with good fire blue on its set screw, the original Rocky mountain style rear rating excellent. A very attractive 1906-made Model 1892 which will no doubt perform as well at the range as it will as an investment. (3B9681-3) {C&R} (3000/5000)

serial #44499, 44 S&W Russian, 6 1/2" ribbed round barrel with an oxidized bore showing evident rifling. The metal surfaces of this revolver retain perhaps 20% original nickel finish mostly present along the barrel and protected areas of the gripstraps with the balance toning to a silvery pewter patina, the sides of the frame with evidence of a light cleaning and some overall smoothed-over light pitting. The screw heads show light slot wear and the barrel address and patent dates remain quite crisp and clear. The barrel assembly shows all of the usual features of the third model except for the front sight which is pinned in rather than being integral. The revolver wears a set of smooth antique ivory grips that rate very good showing some fine mild age crackling, light dings and toning to a mellow patina. All of the numbered parts are matching by assembly number, barrel-to-frame fit shows moderate play and the action seems to function well mechanically with solid timing and lock-up showing a little minor play.

serial #6074, 12 ga., (2 3/4), 30 1/8'' Sir Joseph Whitworth fluid steel barrels choked about improved cylinder and a light modified, with bright excellent bores. The barrels retain about 92% original plum blue, the loss is due to even overall fading, light muzzle wear and a bit of toning to pewter in the area above the forend. They are maker marked atop the left barrel ''Stephen Grant & Sons'', with the 57 St. James Street address, the right tube marked ''Built for George A Oulnby New York'', each with light rings of very nice engraving at the breeches and a small wedge of scroll on the rib. The frame and lockplates are a very pleasing smooth tarnished pewter patina featuring full coverage tight English scroll of the finest quality, with some borderline engraving, a bit of banknote filigree and nicely sculpted clefts flowing along the rear of the fences. ''Stephen Grant & Sons'' is along the bottom of each lockplate end the word ''Safe'' is inlaid in gold on the tang. The checkered round knob pistolgrip English walnut buttstock and splinter style forend rate very fine and are high-quality older replacements, with very nice checkering showing mullered borders, the butt with an un-engraved silver oval monogram plate along the toe. The length of pull to the checkered butt is 14 3/4'' with drops of 1 1/2'' and 2 11/16'', there are the very beginnings of two very tiny cracks at the rear of the left lockplate, they are small and unobtrusive. The arm locks up tightly with dual under bites and the barrels on face. Bore diameter of the right tube is .735'' with .730'' at the choke (.005'' constriction), left tube is .735'' bore diameter with .725'' at the choke (.010'' constriction), and the underside of the barrel has blackpowder proofs, each also marked ''12/C'' and ''choke''. There are a few spots in the right tube that are around .015''-.016'' but most are .023'' and above; the left tube with nothing below .018'', again most above .023''. The gun seems to function well mechanically, although the ejectors are a bit on the light side. The arm comes cased in what is likely its original leather luggage style carry case with heavy brass reinforced corners and a green baize interior. The interior has degraded somewhat from the years showing some slight mothing but has a very good Stephen Grant interior label, also with the 67 St. James Street address. The case shows a bit of scuffing, the handle somewhat tender but the original key to the lock is included; there are no luggage straps. There was no luck finding Mr. Oulnby, this being the spelling on the barrels, logic would seem to dictate it was mis-spelled by Grant, as a George Augustus Quinby was a Physician in New York (one can see how that could easily become mis-spelled, especially written in ink pen in some order book at Grant's) and the time frame would fit his life span, a New York physician would most certainly own a quality British shotgun.

serial #93067, 9mm, 4 5/8" barrel with a very good bore showing fine oxidation in the grooves and strong rifling throughout. The metal surfaces of this non-slotted tangent sight pistol retain perhaps 40% original blue toning overall to a mild gray-brown patina and showing some sparsely scattered fine pinprick pits and light dings. The tangent sight pin has been replaced with a small screw that serves its purpose well enough. All markings remain crisp and clear and the major components are appropriately stamped with German eagle firing proofs and "(Eagle) / WaA103" Waffenamts. The checkered walnut grips rate very good plus showing some scattered light dings and darkening from the years. The slide and barrel are matching the frame, one original magazine with a faint Waffenamt is included and the action seems to function well mechanically. Also included is a nice brown leather flap holster that has been neatly converted to a shoulder holster rig during the period of use. The interior flap is clearly marked "cgn / 43" and with a "(Eagle) / WaA920" and the holster rates very good plus showing some areas of light crackling, scuffs and edge wear. The straps are riveted to the holster body and all stitching is otherwise strong. A solid German occupation Hi-Power with a neat period shoulder rig. (13A9736-76) {C&R} (1500/2000)

serial #1309, 9mm, 4 3/4" barrel with a good bore showing pinprick pitting and frosting with otherwise strong rifling throughout.

All markings remain crisp and clear and the slide is properly marked with the etched F. B. Radom markings and Germany military stamps including the German designation, "(Eagle) / WaA77", eagle firing proof and "(Eagle) / 623". The checkered brown synthetic grips are good quality reproductions that fit the frame very well and remain in near excellent condition showing some light handling marks. There is no lanyard ring present, all of the serialized parts are otherwise matching and the action seems to function well mechanically. One original "(Eagle) / 189" magazine is included. A solid example of a rather scarce subvariation assembled from parts on-hand during the earliest days of occupation. (13B9736-79) {C&R} (1200/1800)

serial #K215614, 22 LR, 6'' pinned barrel with an excellent bore. The metal surfaces retain 99% original blue with just a little thinning to silver at the muzzle and some tiny scattered blemishes with the service hammer and .400'' target trigger retaining nearly all their original nicely-contrasting case color. The checkered walnut factory grips with gold S&W medallions are a later addition and rate excellent with some very nice grain figure and a near perfect fit. Front sight is a Patridge blade and the rear is a micro-adjustable square-notch blade. This 1954 ''Pre-Model 17'' remains in overall excellent condition. (22A9720-27) {MODERN} (1000/1500)

This is a framed image of Henry R. Poore's "Bear Dogs" Winchester Advertising print. Purportedly the subject hounds belonged to Oliver Winchester or a member of the Winchester family, the image is very vivid given its age and subject. The hounds are awaiting the next chase in their kennel, two at the forefront, two to the rear. The print's surface is textured and the original brushstrokes can be seen in the depiction. The left side has artist Henry Poore's signature above ''Philadelphia''. The print has its original Winchester advertising frame which has a heavy coating of added varnish. A bit of light rubbing has revealed the original Winchester advertising painting beneath with the ''WINCHESTER'' logo across the top, ''Rifles, Shotguns FOR SALE HERE and Ammunition'' across the bottom. Mercifully, whoever liked dogs but not guns, did not sand the frame at all, merely varnishing over it, no doubt a professional careful conservation being warranted, as it is overall very nice. The red ''W'' and light gold bordering in each corner remains as do the three shotshells left and right on the frame. There are a few very sparsely scattered, very light drops of varnish on the surface of the print but they are unnoticed at first glance; there is no doubt that whoever undertakes the restoration of the frame could easily remove them as well. These prints were furnished to Winchester dealers & distributors beginning about 1907, the image still being used on calendars well into the 1920s. The view measures 34 7/8'' by 25 3/8'' and the thin silver accenting line bordering the print is intact. The heavy oak frame measures 41 1/2'' x 32'' and has a couple chipped corners but remains solid and tight. An absolutely wonderful piece of Winchester Advertising which is very seldom encountered these days, that will be stunning and vivid after a bit of professional conservation.
