Value of a Colt Trigger frame


Recommended Posts

I found a M1921 Colt trigger frame #6139 in Doug's stuff. I have asked a couple of RKI's

what they figure the value is and no one seems to know or be willing to make a guess. I

searched here on the forum and about ten years ago this topic came up and the only info

was reference to a guy who had been unable to sell a Colt frame for quite some time at a

price of (I think) $2500. (Footnote - 10 years ago.)

 

Since I am commissioned to sell Doug's stuff (as opposed to sitting on it) I put the frame

up on Gunbroker and we can all find out together what the "going rate" for a Colt frame is.

It's a timed auction, so it will not be active until 11:00 PM E.S.T..

 

I looked up #6139 in Gordons Book and he lists it as "destroyed".

Bob,

Quick questions:

  • stripped or complete?
  • with or without the grip?

 

The answers to both questions will bear greatly on the winning bid.

 

Please post a link when the auction is active.

Nice shape frame.

Grip is not Colt.

Internals are not all Colt - as disclosed in pictures.

Levers look like Savage commercial for lack of a better name.

A good shape Colt History paper weight worth a easy $1,000.00, My Friend Dennis is wisc.

 

had a postal 1921ac Colt rec. sawed in three sections on his desk as a nice paperweight well over 20 years ago. with a great Lyman site still on it a mint cond gun.At the time i offered him $500 bucks for it. He passed he never needed the money.

 

we have all come across finds like this.in the coming years more stuff will turn up. And those still around with any interest will buy into it. Glad it never saw the chopper....
