Colt Letter

[pwl44m]

Finally got My Letter from Colt. I was hoping it would specify Grips but it just says not listed. So I guess I can put anything I want on it, not that I couldn't before but I wanted to wait to see if they were specified so as to put the correct ones on it.
I was thinking it was made in 1910 but as per the letter it was shipped in 1902 which makes it just over 110 years old. I hope You can read the Letter so it can speak fo itself.

Neat Mike. None of my Colt letters have the stocks listed either.

Thats cool that your Colt was in a real deal rustic cow town.------Sixgun

I don't guess that outfit in Helena is still a going concern. It'd be cool if it was.

See what turnin 65 does to Ya, I said I thought it was made in 1910. Gaks post triggered a move to look up My original post when I got the Gun. Sure enough right there in black and white so to speak I posted that it was made in 1902. Too many Guns doesn't help either. So in the future I will check to see what I said so I don't appear to be a blithering Idiot. It wouldn't do Me good to get in trouble, I caint even remember the truth much less a Lie.
@ sixgun, it would definitley be cool to find out how it got from Montana to Kalifornia. Wonder if He/ she had to register it when they got here?

Good on 'ya, Perry. I'm far too cheap to letter my Colts; 110 bucks is way over the top to me.

It's only $100 even, I guess things slowed down and they caint make Laws that U Have to letter Ur Colt.

Perry,

I think the $100 invested in the letter should easily add that much or more value to your Colt. It seems that a western cowboy era firearm with provenance is much more desirable than one without.

That is certainly a very interesting link posted by harry!
