Anyone See This Ugly Ass Colt?


Recommended Posts

Subguns 1921 Colt AC

 

... I hate it when people engrave stuff. Yuck. That is just plain disrespectful to the gun - even if it was done in the 1970's.

 

Let me guess, 75K to start?

From the ad:

 

The owner is considering selling it if a serious buyer with serious money wants it.

 

Because of its impeccable condition its owner hasn't been able to establish an exact value but the one thing that is certain is that it will not be inexpensive.

 

If you have serious interest please email and perhaps you can acquire it.

From the looks of the photo it looks as if the engraving was done with a Radio Shack name engraver.

 

I would hope it is just the poor photo.

 

That's going to take some serious milling to get all of that crap off.

Really, the only thing on a Thompson should be rolled/stamped type and numbers!

That is not only butt-ugly, it should be a crime. http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/mad.gif

yeah - the rear grip looks thin - lick a Kahr. Maybe they could only checker flat surfaces... http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/laugh.gif

Tragicly ugly, I'd take it but only at a discount from market rate, then I'd mask the important lettering use filler and finish with a black epoxy paint and call it a " british war " finish.

Guys,

 

Someone made mention of a carved up gun on subguns and I guess I didn't scroll down far enough to find it-

 

YUCK, that is worse than plating the poor thing.

 

I saw another one there a 1921AC that Beech Tree sold for 28K that was a lot better looking than this one and I think was priced below market if the condition is actually what is written- the wood looks 80% at best fromthe pics- Last 2 nice ones I saw sold at KCR were over 32k and were beauts over 90%.

 

But i saw something I haven't seen before- this 21 has the number "5" stamped on the wood, frame etc. What int he heck is that all about???????????????????

Scarification is a rite of passage in some cultures. http://www.machinegunbooks.com/forums/invboard1_1_2/upload/html/emoticons/hail.gif Oh well, maybe some good Thompson smith can fill it in and refinish. Does anyone know the asking price, for sure?

Only someone with the diabolical hatred for Colt like a John Jr could perpetrate this putrid disaster upon a firearm.

Thank God it didn't happen to a Savage or an AO gun! That would be a real tragedy!

Mark probably posted on the wrong thread. I believe the 1921ac cop gun that just sold had "5"s all over it. Of course, "5"s on this one would be an improvment.
