Grease Gunner Posted August 10, 2018 Report Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) Have No Knowledge of this Seller Nor The Gun But Thought it may be of Interest to the group. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/782838709 Suggestion to All Members- when doing a link to a Auction:gunbroker etc. , that link will expire 90 days or so after the auction.For purposes of posterity, i loaded the pictures into imageshack, a hosting service. Then i pasted the links in Forum Code intothis thread. Then the pictures are big compared to a picture from your desktop and they will remain in this thread for posterity.If you want to know how to do that, send me a PM. Took me a big 5 minutes! Looks all original but percentage of finish is disappointingLower is discolored and both show lots of wear. I wonder what it would appraise at??

TD. Posted August 13, 2018 Report Share Posted August 13, 2018 The early 3 digit 21As are very desirable but any 65% to 70% Colt's with wood issues at $55,000 is a stretch in my opinion. Thanks for posting about NO 303. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snipershot1944 Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 I was able to see S/N 303 today. Nice honest piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
