In 99.9% mint new stunning condition, we have a matching boxed Colt 1903 Pocket hammerless that was produced in 1929. The best part of this rig is that it still has the original Ohio hardware store tag from when it was sold. It looks exactly as if the clerk just pulled it out of the glass case! This pistol shows no evidence of storage wear from being in the box and it is the sharpest looking 1903 Colt that we have ever seen, the pistol is in as new of a condition that you can have for a gun that is 85 years old. We have seen and sold a lot of boxed Colt pocket auto’s but this one takes the cake as far as condition goes.
The 1903 colt was and still is one of the most romantic and sought after Colts ever made and certainly is the second most collected and collectible of the Colt automatic pistols after the 1911. These guns evoke images of the gangsters of the movies and the Prohibition era and they are well entrenched in American history and 20th century industrial art. This is a premier and exceptional example of one of the most iconic Colt pistols ever produced.
