Lot 469 Detail

Scarce U.S. Martially Marked Colt Third Model Dragoon Revolver, Cut for Third Type Shoulder Stock and with Folding Leaf Rear Sights, Rare Corrosion Attributed to Human Blood

Serial no. 16958, .44 caliber percussion cylinder; 7 1/2-inch part round, part octagonal barrel marked ADDRESS SAML COLT NEW YORK CITY with part of marking covered by dovetailed folding leaf rear sight; German silver halfmoon profile front sight blade; COLTS/PATENT/U.S. in tiny letters stamped on left side of frame; Texas Rangers and Comanche Indian fight cylinder roll scene; blued with case-hardened hammer, loading lever and frame; plain brass triggerguard strap; blued steel backstrap; frame cut for stock on recoil shield, and with four-screws; oil-finished walnut grips. U.S. Ordnance inspector stamping GGS within cartouche on left grip panel; right panel with WAT inspector stamping in cartouche. Individual inspector letter stampings on some parts of C and M. Matching number 6958 on bottom of wedge and on top of loading lever lug.

Condition: Very good to fine. Scattered blue and case-hardening; largely overall gray patina, with blood-induced pitting and patina; cylinder with sharp roll scene, partly covered with spotted blood-induced pitting and patina; cylinder safety pins excellent; triggerguard strap with mellow patina; grips very good with nicks and wear; some mars on butt. Very good bore.

Note: R.L. Wilson, The Book of Colt Firearms, describes the shoulder stocked Dragoons on pages 73-77 and again on pages 91-96.
Note: Rare example of a revolver which, without the patina from blood, would be one of the finest known examples of the Third Model Dragoon cut for shoulder stock attachment. Mechanism, safety pins, cylinder scene and other details show virtually no use.

Estimate: $15000 - $20000
