*RARE COLT MODEL 1900 SIGHT SAFETY / USN.

*RARE COLT MODEL 1900 SIGHT SAFETY / USN. SN 1136 / USN 136. Cal. 38 ACP. US Navy contract, one of 250 guns, purchased by the US Navy between 1900 and 1902. Examples of this pistol are very rare and hard to find with the sight safety still intact, never mind with condition. This pistol remains in excellent original condition, retaining most of its blue and all of its case colors. This would be a great addition to any Colt or military collection. Comes with a modern, wooden Colt display case. PROVENANCE: Stern Collection. CONDITION: Pistol retains approximately 92-95% of its orig deep rich Colt blue with just some very minor scuffs and nicks throughout which appear to be a lot less than normally seen on these pistols. Sight safety and hammer retain 100% of their orig, bright case colors. Bbl retains almost all of its blue and the fire blue trigger still retains nearly all of its fire blue finish. Nickel plated 1884 patent magazine shows better than 98% condition with just a couple of scuffs and a little bit of corrosion on the face. Mechanics are crisp and tight. Bore is bright and shiny with no signs of corrosion and very little signs of use. A very rare find for a very discerning collector. Display case is in good condition but not original to the gun. 4-34119 BK110 (9,000-13,000)
