A Very Surprising Weekend Colt Find

It's not often you stumble across a Colt Pre-Woodsman in this condition. 1926 vintage and in solid 98% condition. Has the original early two tone magizine, as well as the original main spring housing. Many of the main spring housings were changed to use higher velocity ammo. I asked the owner if he kept this in a time capsule, he said no. Just good stewardship of the family. So now it has a new home and steward to admire and take care of it. It was kept dry, lubed and in a heavy wool sock. Makes me re-think my storage applications!

very, very nice!!

what wonderful condition,,

Wow, what a beauty. Got to love that Colt bluing.

That's a nice 'un DT. You have obviously been mining is the right spots lately.

yessir, a GOOD one, and certainly a "keeper"............nice pictures too

Yeah Larry, had to go to the Lost Dutchman area (Chandler) for this one. Both of us took our mules half way to way the gold though.
