676 - COLT OPEN-TOP .44 CALIBER REVOLVER.
This is a fine and rare Open-Top. It's in standard .44 rimfire and often carried by westerners with a Henry or '66 Winchester that used the same caliber. The barrel shows traces of original blue mixing with patina as is the rest of the gun. The markings and action are sharp and crisp. The grips are original and show numerous tack holes about them. The tacks were removed by a former owner and filled and are virtually imperceptable without carefull study. This could very well have been used by a Native American and then returned to originality by a collector that wasn't aware of the possible historical significance of the tacs. In any case, it's a great and rare gun in this fine condition. It's hard to come by a very good to fine Open-top under $10,000.00.

675 - COLT, MODEL 1861 NAVY/NAVY CONVERSION.
This is a very fine condition gun showing most of its original blue and case colors. It is beautifull and has military finish. Due to this finish, I expect that this gun would letter to the US Navy from its original configuration in the 6,XXX serial range. This gun is beautifull and once again, a greta bargain for someone.

673 - COLT 1849 FACTORY, GUSTAV YOUNG ENGRAVED POCKET REVOLVER IN RARE, FORM-FITTED FACTORY CASING WITH ACCESSORIES.
This is a particularly rare little gun in that it is listed by serial number as engraved by the Gustav Young workshop in one of only two surviving ledger pages from the Colt archives and published in "The Book of colt Engraving". It is in dove grey patina but very nice. The ivory grips fit absolutely perfect but I have never seen Colt Factory grips with this much grain and they could very well be period replacements. I cannot guarantee them. This set would be worth the price if the gun had no grips at all. It is rare and the set is very, very nice.

664 - COLT ROOT, MODEL 6A.
This is a beautifull little Root with almost all its original blue and case-colors on its metal parts. The front sight is a custom replacement, probably done for an owner that requested it. It is well done but probably not factory. The grips are spectacular and unusual. They are definitely factory in my opinion, and have been extended in length to fit this gun. I have no doubt that this is factory work and have seen this once before on a Colt Navy. The fit is absolutely perfect. The gun is beautifull and worthy of a top-notch collection.

663 - COLT 1849 POCKET REVOLVER, FACTORY ENGRAVED WITH 6" BARREL.
This is a very sharp and crisp little Pocket engraved in the No.2 style of Gustav Young. It is all original with excellent grips. It is cased in a modern, French style case with period accessories. Although not original to the gun, it makes for a very nice home for the original pocket. When you add up the value of the gun and period accessories, it comes out to around $8500.00. If a smart buyer didn't want the extras, he could sell of the extras and have himself a very nice, original engraved Colt for about $6,250.00, about a thousand off todays retail on such a gun.

634 - EXTREMEY RARE AND EARLY LEMAT PINFIRE REVOLVER.
This is probably of the earliest LeMat pinfires in that it is basically a full-sized LeMat. The frame and cylinder were reduced to facilitate the pinfire cartridge and the loading gate assembly is original to the frame. Provision for the plunger is on the right. This is not a conversion but a full, early Pinfire LeMat Revolver and it IS RARE. It is still tight and fairly crisp to include the grips. The only detraction is some fairly heavy corrosion on the cylinder that effects about 3 of the chamber areas.

620 - WONDERFULL SILVER MOUNTED, BRITISH OFFICERS PISTOL.
This is a wonderfull gun made by Brander and hallmarked in the 1760's. It is untouched and never enhanced messed with other than the polishing of the silver mounts that is perfectly acceptable on these fine guns. It was found in a fine, large home in New Jersey in a small flat trunk under shredded and treated newspaper insulation between the rafters in the attic about 30 years ago prior to the homes razing. It most certainly saw service during the Revolutionary War. This is a Queen Anne sized pistol with prox. 9" barrel. It is in fine condition and IT IS NICE !

557 - MANHATTAN NAVY REVOLVER WITH FACTORY PEARL GRIPS, FACTORY ENGRAVED AND HISTORICALLY INSCRIBED TO CAPTAIN ANTHONY BOWEN OF THE 173RD OHIO.
This wonderfull gun was sent in from California where it has resided for years. This is a factory engraved gun with factory pearl grips, a very arre gun in and of itself. It has a beautifull inscription on the backstrap, "Presented to Capt. A. W. Bowen By Co. E, 173rd O.V.I.". Our recent research on this gun shows that Bowen was originally mustered into the 6th Ohio in 1861 as a private and was wounded at Chickamauga to muster out in June of '64. He would have also seen service at Shilo and Stones River. He was commissioned into Company E of the 173rd in August of the same year to see service at Nashville. This gun has seen fairly heavy use but has a wonderfull look. The grips are gorgeous and the engraving is still nice. It has a silver plated finish that is contemporary to the period, but appears to have been done after some use or after the war for preservation purposes. It has turned a deep, silver-blue patina and looks awesome. I believe there is a likelihood that this gun is one of two things. It was either captured from the enemy and then plated, inscribed and presented to Bowen, or it was plated by Bowen after the war to preserve it and the memory of his service. Regardless, it is a great, inscribed veteran of the conflict to a soldier that had great history and one who was wounded in battle.

430 - FINE CONDITION, ETCHED PANEL COLT 44-40 SINGLE ACTION.
As most subscribers to my website are well-aware, I don't handle many single-actions due to the number of faked and fiddled-with guns that I see on the market. The few I do handle are usually doozies and this one falls into that very catagory. This gun is out of the Bud Clark collection in Michigan. It is an attic-mint specimen that has never been touched, cleaned or enhanced in any way since its period of practical use, and it is beautifull. The panel scene, screw heads and all markings are near perfect and the gun shows traces of blue and case colors mixing with a deep, blue/brown patina. The grips are nearly flat mint save for a few handling marks and would fit nicely on a $30,000 early S/A. This is a great single-action and if you've been waiting for a really nice, untouched one that has no flies or red flags waving over it, this is the gun. It deserves to be in a finely carved rig and a new home.

294 - CIVIL WAR GUN. ADAMS REVOLVER, FACTORY ENGRAVED AND FACTORY PRESENTED IN 1864. CIVIL WAR VINTAGE DATED 1864.
This is a great Civil War era Adams Revolver that is factory engraved and inscribed on its top strap; "Major Rawlings from Robert Adams" followed by the adams address. This inscription is 100% original and extremely rare, however I can make no claims as to any association to any Confederate Officer or Soldier with whom these guns were so popular, as I have not had time to have the name researched. I will leave that up to the buyer of this outstanding engraved specimen. The gun is in excellent overall condition to include prox. 80% original blue and near mint action, markings and grips. A vintage Civil War era Adams, the likes of which we may not see again for a very long time.

263 - REMINGTON DERINGER - FACTORY ENGRAVED OVER/UNDER REMINGTON DERINGER, TYPE 1, MODEL 2.
I usually don't find many good over/under's like this, but when I stumbled up on this, I had to buy it. This is another nice little gun that doesn't show a high percentage of its original silver plating, but it is a rare, hard to find little gun. It's in overall very good condition and priced fairly. It's the classic Western gun that was there in the gambling parlors and vest pockets or garters of the Wild Westerners.

255 - CONFEDERATE LeMAT REVOLVER - ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING, MUSEUM QUALITY FIRST MODEL LeMAT REVOLVER.
According to more than a few well known Confederate dealers and collectors, this is one of the very finest First Model LeMat Revolvers in private hands today. It is exquisite. I bought this wonderfull gun with the intention of keeping it, but found something recently that tickled my fancy a bit more, and I just can't keep it all !! This gun is super sharp and crisp with generous amounts of original blue. The grips are also outstanding. This is one gun that I will not soft-sell. Some say that LeMats are soft right now, but not a two digit 1st Model with finish. It is a very important Confederate artifact that is worthy of the finest museum or personal collection. I would be as interested in a trade as a sale, so if you want to own one of the very best in Confederate collectables, give me a call.
