Ben Lane Exhibition Colt SAA, Cal. 45 Long Colt

One of Ben Lane's finest engraved Single Actions, this antique first generation 45 was completed by him approximately 25 years ago.  Ben is a Colt Master Level Engraver and he considers this work to be exhibition grade.  This is the first time it has ever been offered for sale, having been in his personal collection since it was finished.  The over lapping vine scroll pattern used throughout is similar to that found on Colt's 1876 Philadelphia panel guns, as is the design on the cylinder. The grips are scrimshawed in the same vine scroll motif and highlighted with indigo ink.  The design and execution of the engraving on this Colt is superb, and is exceptional, even for Ben Lane.

Smith & Wesson Model 15 Combat Masterpiece, Cal. 38 Special

Nice 1980's production S&W Model 15-4 Combat Masterpiece, chambered in 38 Special.  The gun is fitted with a 4 inch barrel and checkered wood service grips.  It retains about 99%+ of its original blue, with only a drag line on the cylinder, and slight thinning at the muzzle.  The bore is bright and the action functions perfectly.  The grips are in fine condition, with the exception of a handling ding on the left grip.

Colt Anaconda, 6 Inch Barrel, Cal. 45 LC

Colt manufactured the Anaconda in both .44 Magnum (most common) and .45 Long Colt, which is much scarcer.  We have a near new example in .45 LC that is complete with both boxes (cardboard sleeve over plastic) and the owner's manual.  It probably has been shot but is in excellent 99%+ condition.  This is a very desirable and hard to find variation for the Colt "Snake" Collector.

A nice example of its type this 1911 vintage Colt 1908, chambered in .32 ACP, is in excellent condition.  It retains about 88 to 90% of its original blue finish and the black checkered hard rubber grips are in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks.  The trigger and safety retain most of their original fire blue finish.  The bore is bright and the action is tight and functions perfectly.

Remington Model 81 Woodmaster, Cal. .35 Remington

Colt Stainless Steel Python, Cal. .357 Magnum

We just bought this 6 inch barrel Python from the original owner.  He bought it new around 1988 and never shot it.  It was stored in a safe and still is in new condition.  Unfortunately the outside of the box is in rough condition and is missing the end label.  The styrofoam insert is fine and  contains the owners manual.  Only a few of the early Pythons came with wood grips, the majority have the black rubber.  The grips alone add $300 to the value of this Python and it is a hard variation to find.  The stainless steel variation still seems to be going up in value.

Savage Model 1907, Cal. .32 ACP

A fantastic example of its type, this Savage 1907 (manufactured from 1910 to 1917), chambered in .32 ACP, is in excellent condition, retaining 98-99% of its original blue finish.  The grips are also in excellent condition, with no cracks or chips.  The bore is bright and the action operates perfectly.  The trigger and magazine release retain all of their original color case-hardening and the magazine releases and inserts like new.  Neat pistol, not one exposed screw on the whole gun, quite the engineering feat.

WWII Vintage Japanese Nambu Pistol with Holster, Cal. 8mm Nambu

Just received this very nice 1936 vintage Japanese Nambu pistol with flap holster, extra magazine (later version), and firing pin.  The pistol is all numbers matching (firing pin does not have a number) except for the 2 magazines.    It is in excellent condition, retaining 96% of its original blue, the grips are also in excellent condition, with minimal handling dings, the bore is bright with sharp rifling, and the action functions perfectly.  The holster is in very fine condition, with no tears or major cracks, there is some seam seperation and leather missing on the hinge/flap.  A gereat example of its type.

Mint condition, 5-screw,  Military & Police Pre-Model 10 revolver chambered in 38 Special.  This 1949-1950 vintage gun is fitted with a 4 inch barrel and checkered walnut diamond grips (number to the gun).  The barrel and cylinder also number to the gun.  It retains about 98-99% of its original blue finish, the hammer and trigger retain 98% of their original color case-hardening, and the grips are in near excellent condition, due to a ding on the right grip above the medallion.  All screw heads are un-molested, the bore is bright, and the action functions as new.  A very nice example of its type, with a good presentation.  Military & Police 38 Specials, in this condition, are getting harder to find.

Colt Single Action Peacemaker, 1st Generation, 2 Serial Number, Cal. 38/40

A very nice pre-1920, 1st Generation Single Action in .38 WCF (38/40) caliber.  This gun, serial numbered 338xxx, was actually manufactured in 1919 and is one of only a few guns with two visable serial numbers showing, visable on the frame and on the backstrap.  During this period, Colt began to move the serial numbers on the trigger guard and backstrap, to underneath the grips.  The gun is in excellent, original condition, with 90% original blue and case-hardening, a near perfect bore, and comes with its original black shipping carton containing the wire cleaning brush.  The box is labeled and serial numbered  to the gun.

Smith & Wesson Model 66-1, 2 1/2 Inch, Cal. .357 Magnum

Made in 1981 this Model 66-1 was made early enough to still have a recessed cylinder and pinned barrel.  In 1982 the 66-2 was introduced, which eliminated these two desirable features.  This gun has been carried (has a number of minor surface scratches from holstering) and shot, but is in overall nice condition.

Colt King Cobra, Stainless, Cal. .357 Magnum

Just received this like new Colt King Cobra fitted with a 4 inch barrel, red-ramp front sight, white-outline rear sight, hard rubber grips with a silver "Rampant Colt" medallions, and chambered in .357 Magnum.  Good looking gun.

One of the most desirable 357 Magnums ever made, the Smith ? Wesson Model 27 with the 5 inch barrel.  This "S" serial numbered, 1968 vintage Model 27 is in fantastic condition, retaining 99% of its original blue finish, with only some very minor thinning at the muzzle and on the cylinder release button, and a drag line on the cylinder.  The numbered to the gun grips are in excellent condition, with only a few minor handling marks.  The bore is bright, with sharp rifling, and the action is tight and functions perfectly.  A very nice example of the Cadillac of 357 Magnums.

Colt 1848 Baby Dragoon, .31 Cal.

This is a very early 4 inch gun, serial number 450, in a Paterson type case with the beveled or raised panel lid, with flask, bullet mold and cap tin.  The flask is double faced, marked "Colt's Patent".  These cases were transition boxes with partitions, but were not used after 1850 and are very hard to find today.  The gun shows traces of original finish, especially the silver on the grip straps, and very nice grips.  There is some cylinder scene remaining and all other markings are crisp and clear.  A nice example of its type.

Colt Double Action Model of 1878, Cal. 44/40, Shipped to Collow Row Bill

This Colt Double Action, etched panel, Model of 1878 was shipped to Collow Row Bill on July 21, 1883.  We cannot find anything about him, but he must have been an exhibition shooter in his day.  Gun is fitted with factory installed ivory grips, is nickel finished, and is inscribed on the back-strap "COLLOW ROW BILL" and "Champion Pistol Shot of America".  Included is a factory letter attesting to the grips, finish, and who it was shipped to.  An interesting Colt 1878.

DWM 1918 Artillery Luger, Cal. 9mm

This is a totally original and completely matching (including the magazine) Artillery Luger, chambered dated 1918.  Finding a nearly 100 year old Artillery Luger with and original matching magazine is highly unusual.  Being built in 1918, near the end of thee war, and being in such good condition, it must not have ever been issued.  The blue and straw are excellent.  The grips show some wear to the checkering especially on the right side, but htere are no cracks or chips.  The bore is bright and shiny.  This is really a nice Artillery and would be an asset to anyone's collection.

Winchester Model 62, Cal. 22 S, L, LR

The Model 62 Winchester is a later/modern version of the Winchester model 1890.  They were made from 1932 to 1958, with over 409,000 manufactured.  The little slide action rifles were fitted with a 23 inch round or oxtagon barrel, full blue finished, and were chambered in .22 S, L, ?

The 125th Anniversary Colt SAA Commemorative was manufactured in 1961 to celebrate the 125th birthday of Colt Manufacturing.  There were 7,390 of these guns made with this one being the 3,450th one made.  It is new/unfired and comes in its original wood presentation case. It retains all of its original finishes, with the exception of a spot on the left side of the hammer.  The wood presetation cas is in excellent condition, with only a few very minor handling marks.  Also included is a 125th Anniversary key chain.  I feel these are sleepers of the Colt SAA's, especially since they are 2nd Generation guns.

Remington Model 16 "C" Special Grade, Cal. 22 Remington Automatic

According to the "Blue Book" this rifle was only made between 1914 and 1928.  This "Special Grade" is quite rare and in 41 years we have never seen another.  it has deluxe wood and checkering which is not found on the standard grade.  It also has presentation engraving on the receiver: LEE HUNT TAYLOR, ITHACA, N.Y. Sept. 23, 1946.  It would be interewsting to find out more about Mr. Taylor.  The other special features is a special order Lyman tang sight that would have to be unique to this model rifle.  Unfortunately the metal is an old reblue, and shows some pitting of the metal under the blue.  This rifle is rare enough to be collectable as is, but it could be refinished again with a proper rust blue to enhance its value.

Colt Police Positive Target, Cal. .32

Starting in 1925 Colt produced the Police Positive .32 Target Model on the new heavier frame.  They stopped production 10 years later in 1935 with a total production of only 3,351, compared to the 15,741 of the .22 heavy frame target revolvers.  That makes this varient one of the lowest production revolvers made by Colt.  This example was made in 1932 when the USA's economy was in a depression and not many shooters could afford such a nice revolver.  The overall condition is excellent with a mint bore, nearly perfect grips and 98% blue.  It does have a few very minor isloated rust specks on the frame that are visable in the pictures.  It would be hard to improve on this target model for either the collector or target shooter.

Colt Lawman MK III, Cal. .357 Magnum

The Colt Lawman MK III was made from 1969 to 1983.  The 6-shot revolvers were fitted with either a 2 or 4 inch barrel, either a unshrouded or shrouded ejector rod, fixed sights, checkered walnut grips, blue or nickel finish, and were chambered in .357 Magnum.  This gun is as described and is fitted with a 2 inch barrel, with a unshrouded ejector rod, and is blue finished.  The gun is in like new condition, with only a drag line on the cylinder.  It has been shot, but very little from its appearance.  Comes with its original numbered to the gun box.  Tough looking Colt .357 Magnum snubby.

Danish M47 Madsen Rifle, Cal. 30-06

Made for the South American country of Columbia, they were one of the last bolt action rifles made for military use.  It was not a popular design due to the fact that most military rifles were semi-automatic by that time.  This rifle is "Brand New".  It is full of cosmoline and we are sure that it is unfired.  It even comes with a mint matching serial numbered bayonet.  It would be impossibel to improve on!

S/42 (Mauser) Luger 1938 Date, WWII Vintage, Cal. 9mm

The Nazi war machine was in full swing in 1938 and they produced around 100,000 Lugers that year.  This example in in excellent original condition with a mint bore an 97% blue finish, with theonly visable wear on the high edges that rub on the inside of the holster.  it comes complete with a 1939 dated holster and two un-numbered fxo extruded magazines.  These magazines by them selves would sell in the $150 range each.  This rig was some WWII GI's war trophy and was very well taken care of.

The Cadillac of .357 Magnum handguns, here is a beautiful, 1970's vintage, S?W Model 27 fitted with a 6 inch barrel, patridge front sight, adjustable rear sight, factory checkered wood target grips with S?W medallions, target hammer and trigger, and chambered in .357 Magum.  This is a 99%+ gun, with only a minor turn line on the cylinder.  Appears to have been test fired only, with a perfect bore and a tight and perfect functioning action.  Includes a nice mahagany S?W presentation case with all assecories   The case itself is in great condition, with a few minor handling marks.  Also comes with all paper-work.  A very nice example of its type.

Ithaca 1911A1, WWII Vintage, Cal. 45ACP
