Lot #49 (Sale Order 49 of 678)

In 1980 Smith & Wesson produced one of their greatest, more recent collectibles, albeit unknowingly. In May of 1980, the New York State Police Department placed an order for a large butt fixed sight .357 Magnum. Smith & Wesson produced the order but the Police Department never took delivery so Smith & Wesson was stuck with 3000 already made guns and offered them to dealers. These guns featured square butt, N frame, three screw, six shot with fixed sights, pinned barrels, recessed cylinders and .357 caliber; making it the only .357 Magnum to that point on the N frame without target sights. The serial number range was N557750-N560860. These revolvers have consecutive serial numbers and include the original blue numbered boxes. Both have silver medallion grips with case colored hammer and trigger. Revolvers show slight cylinder drag line but remain in as new condition inside and out. Both right grip panels are stamped with serial numbers; No. 218 is stamped “559910” and No. 217 is stamped “560402”. It is a well-known fact that these grips were put on with no attempt to match numbers and we have never seen a single example where the numbers matched. This was a topic of discussion during last years Smith & Wesson Collectors Convention. Given the small run, this pair would make a fine investment for the future, as the popularity of N frame Smith & Wesson continues to grow.Accessories: Boxes, cleaning tools and manualsBarrel Length: (A) 4" (B) 4"Caliber/Bore: (A) .357 Magnum (B) .357 MagnumFFL Status: ModernManufacturer: Smith & WessonModel: 520Paperwork: No Serial Number: (A) N560217 (B) N560218 Condition: Dimensions:

Both revolvers feature blued finish, six shot, double action, and case colored hammer and triggers. Revolvers have matching serial numbers on frame, barrel and cylinder. One has Smith & Wesson hard rubber grips, while the other has Smith & Wesson checkered walnut grips, not numbered to the gun. Grips on both revolvers are near mint. Smith & Wesson factory letter on No. 694106 lists this gun in it's present condition; shipped on August 7, 1940, as a .38 Model 1905 fourth change, 2" barrel, shipped to Boston Police Department ballistic unit, attention Sergeant Edward J. Seibolt. The back strap is stamped "B.P.D. 118 M". Serial No. 694105 was shipped from the factory August 24, 1946, delivered to Lou Eppinger of Detroit, Michigan. The letter does not list any specifications. No mention of barrel length, finish or grips. An article by Mike Priwer in the Smith & Wesson Journal of Autumn 1993 discuses serial No. 694105 and pictures the gun with 2" barrel, round butt and rubber grips and all matching numbers. On this revolver the matching serial number is scratched on the inside of the left grip, as can be seen in the article. Article believes this revolver was made in 1938 or 1939, though it was not shipped until 1946. As to condition, No. 694105 retains approximately 85% total factory original blue with most of the wear of rear grip strip, which has turned a blue-grey patina and wear to cylinder approximately 30%, which is blending with gun metal gray. Serial No. 694106 displays approximately 75% original blue with most of the wear in the same areas and a touch more wear on the top strap. If this was not interesting enough, an article by Roy Jinks also deals with No. 694105, showing a strange marking on left trigger guard. Roy found this revolver was shipped on September 20, 1940 to the Norwegian Air Force in Canada; one of 625 revolvers. How this revolver was shipped twice from factory and has the Norwegian stamp remains a mystery still to be uncovered. Arguably one of the more interesting pair of consecutive number revolvers.Accessories: NoneBarrel Length: (A) 2" (B) 2"Caliber/Bore: (A) .38 Special (B) .38 SpecialFFL Status: Curio & RelicManufacturer: Smith & WessonModel: (A) Hand Ejector (B) Hand EjectorPaperwork: YesSerial Number: (A) 694105 (B) 694106.

(C) DWM Navy Rework Police Luger Semi-Automatic Pistol.

Lot #62 (Sale Order 62 of 678)

Featured in the book "Police Lugers" by Edward B. Tinker and Dwight Gruber on pages 94-99. This is a hard to find Police rework pistol that started out as an Imperial Navy Luger, reworked for the precinct police "R" of the Western Inspectorate in Chorlottenburg "W.I.". After being reorganized to get away from complicated district structure in favor of a unified organizational structure, the first unit mark "W.I.R112." from 1922 had been canceled. They then re-marked their equipment accordingly. The second police mark "S.B.5262." from 1932 is still visible. Unusual characteristics of this gun are as follows: Serial number is stamped on the frame inside of the left grip; the original grip safety has been removed; the frame has been shortened to take a standard P-08 barrel; the lower position safety mark has been removed and replaced at the upper position, this happened in the first World War and is known as the "First Issue, Altered"; a hole behind trigger was drilled for the magazine safety but was never installed; and the sear safety has been installed. Features V notch rear sight with factory dovetailed front sight, and unnumbered arsenal replacement wood grips. Retains approximately 92-95% finish of the arsenal reblue. Aluminum bottom blue magazine numbered 5933. Bore is good with sharp lands and grooves. Scarce matching numbered holster made by FRANZ COBAU in 1933. Accepted by the sunburst/L police inspector.

(C) 1905 DMW Dutch Prototype Luger Semi-Automatic Pistol.

Lot #73 (Sale Order 73 of 678)

Also known as the "Hollandsch Model", this gun is featured in the following two books: first, "The Dutch Luger" pages 118-126 and second "The Borchardt & Luger Automatic Pistols" pages 296-301. This is a very interesting and historical pistol. It is in the B suffix range. The B suffix was set aside for prototype Lugers. This is one of the ten guns that was ordered in December 1904 and delivered in August of 1905 for the Dutch contract of 174 trials pistols. The significance of this gun is that it gave way to the "New Model" Luger, or Model 1906. Quite a few significant changes were made to this gun, first the frame was modified to take a coil main spring instead of a flat leaf spring. This was done by machining a new part and dovetailing it into the frame. This was also the first pistol that had flat toggle knobs and the omission of a toggle lock. Extractor is marked "GLADEN" only on the left side and the thumb safety is marked "RUST" with an arched arrow pointing up into the safe position. Like all Dutch Lugers this one is in poor shape but is the only known example out of the first ten Dutch guns. A very well documented gun. Here is a chance to own a very historical prototype Luger that is in the B suffix range.Barrel Length: 4"Caliber/Bore: 9mm LugerFFL Status: Curio & RelicManufacturer: DWMModel: Dutch PrototypePaperwork: YesSerial Number: 10130B Condition: Dimensions:

(A) Ultra Rare Colt Whitneyville Hartford Transitional Walker Model Dragoon Revolver.

Lot #147 (Sale Order 147 of 678)

One of the great rarities of the Colt collecting world, rarer than the Walker Model, it is stated that 240 examples were manufactured beginning with Serial No. 1100 and continued to serial No. 1340. All of these revolvers were manufactured in late 1847 at the new Hartford factory using up excess parts from the Walker in the process. Matching numbers on frame, barrel, trigger guard, backstrap and cylinder. Loading lever is numbered 966 and appears to be the only leftover part that does not match. Wedge is unnumbered. Barrel reads from breech to barrel address "SAMl COLT NEW-YORK CITY". Left side of frame is stamped "COLT'S PATENT U.S.". This is the more desirable of the two variations with the Walker-type grips that go into the frame. Has the large oval cut-outs and all original nipples. No trace of cylinder scene. Brass has never been cleaned. All legends are razor sharp. A few of the screw heads have light distortion. Indexes and locks up fine. Strong rifled bore. This rare Colt has been completely field stripped, examined and vetted by numerous experts and deemed to be one of the better existing examples of this extremely rare U.S. Martial revolver. It is considered by many to be the holy grail of Colt percussion revolvers. This revolver is examined in detail in the book of Colt firearms by R.L. Wilson on pages 82-84. 30 presentation models were given to the "who's who" of military elite, further reducing the number made for regular troops.

(A) Colt 3rd Model Dragoon Percussion Revolver.

Lot #148 (Sale Order 148 of 678)

Manufactured 1855. All matching numbers with the exception of wedge not numbered. Frame is not U.S. marked. Barrel has New York address. This revolver has seen a lot of use; muzzle is rounded, barrel has areas of light pitting, cylinder scene is not visible, frame has had some wiped on finish, and loading lever is grey. Most of the screw heads show various degrees of distortion. The brass trigger guard has been replaced with a Second Model square back style, but is numbered to the gun and the font appears to be identical to the rest of the gun, so it may have been a factory leftover square back used on a Second Model. Trigger guard is inspector stamped "Z" on left rear and "A" on left front trigger bow, which would also indicate a Martially inspected gun. There are two plugged holes on the backstrap that would have been for mounting a shoulder stock, and the butt screw is extended which further indicated that this trigger guard and backstrap were leftover parts used to assemble this revolver. It is our opinion that this is all original as applied by factory, as it was a common practice to use leftover parts.Accessories : NoneBarrel Length: 7 - 1/2"Caliber/Bore: .44 PercussionFFL Status: AntiqueManufacturer: ColtModel: 3rd Model DragoonPaperwork : No Serial Number: 15318 Condition: Dimensions:

Lot #151 (Sale Order 151 of 678)

Approximately 700 English Hartford Dragoons were assembled at the Colt's London factory with British proof crown over "V" in 1853 only, making them extremely scarce in their own right. The silver plated backstrap on this revolver bears the inscription "C.B HALE 82nd REGt". The same inscription is found on the brass plaque on top of the Colt London oak display box. When researching C.B. Hale on the internet, there is a caption detailing the heroics of Lieutenant Colonel Hale as taken from a period book written on the events of his duty dated to 1858 and is easily researchable. All matching numbers including lever, with the exception of wedge which is numbered 150. The British proofs are easily seen on left side of barrel. Top of barrel has London address. The cylinder has the British proofs on every guard. USMR roll-engraved cylinder scene is virtually all visible. Trigger guard and backstrap retain virtually all of their nickel plating.

Rare Original Colt Walnut Display Box for 1848 Baby Dragoon.

Lot #197 (Sale Order 197 of 678)

This exact case and color combination is listed as the first style contour cased 1848 Baby Dragoon 4 - 1/2" barrel pictured on page 210 in the book "Colt Accoutrements 1834-1911" by R. Rapley. These cases are extremely scarce. It is basically a plain walnut box with brown felt lining. There are no dividers, rather the bottom of the case is inlet for the gun and accessories. The felt is very nice and shows some wear. Walnut box has a repaired crack on top and is missing the lid latch. Comes with a brass Colt's patent two cavity .31 caliber mold, Winchester cap tin, and a Colt 1849 Pocket Model flask, Model F24 on page 85. This is an early bullet mold with no sprue cutter and is either an M16 or M17 made for the 1848 Baby Dragoon as seen on page 122. If you have a beautiful, high condition, or special Baby Dragoon, you will find that the case is harder to find than the gun. Condition: Dimensions:

The matching assembly number is on the rear face of buttstock, under the buttplate, along with “94”. Matching assembly number is also found inside toe of buttplate.

Note: A clover leaf sight is described in The Winchester Book by Madis, as a style “28” which is a semi-buckhorn style as found on this rifle. The sight currently on this rifle is of a later vintage with smooth edges rather than the serrated edges of the 1917 era when this rifle was most likely restored. This rifle is pictured, on page 172 with three photographs, in the book “Winchester Engraving” by R.L. Wilson. The caption details mostly only the information found in the letter and states that when the rifle was returned and repaired in 1917 “at which time the inscription on lower tang was engraved”. PROVENANCE: Lloyd Goff Collection; Glenn Hockett Collection; Wes Adams Estate Collection. Very fine as restored. Overall retains about all of a factory restored finish to both metal and wood; barrel and magazine tube retain 97-98% strong, factory reapplied blue with only light muzzle and sharp edge wear; receiver, takedown ring, forend cap and buttplate retain most of their strong gold plating with some light flaking on top edges of the receiver; lever and hammer retain brilliant case colors; wood is sound with a few very minor nicks and scratches and retains about all of its fine restored finish.

(A) Rare Winchester Model 1886 Lever Action Musket with Bayonet.

Lot #230 (Sale Order 230 of 678)

Manufactured 1893. This rare musket is part of a group of an entire collection of Winchester muskets dating from 1866 to 1895 that took the consigner nearly 50 years to complete. This is the second rarest of all Winchester muskets behind the trial Model 1894. In a Winchester letter dated 1976, Serial No. 82373 musket in caliber .45-70 was shipped on September 15th, 1893 with ten other muskets; barrel lengths not listed. It is two numbers off the one pictured in "The Winchester Book" by Madis. According to a hand-written letter about private research done within the records, 372 total muskets were ever made, all noted with 32" barrels, although Serial No. 82373 (this gun) and 82375 both have 30" barrels. It must be assumed that the 11 muskets shipped together were the majority of the 30" barrels sent. Gun features single barrel band with swivel, forend tip, post front sight, military rear sight, carbine buttplate with trapdoor, rear swivel in stock, blued bolt and loading gate, and case colored frame, lever, hammer and buttplate with full length walnut forend and buttstock. 85% original factory blue on barrel.

(C) Winchester Model 1894 Lever Action Musket - The Rarest of All Winchester Muskets.

Lot #231 (Sale Order 231 of 678)

Serial No. 418972 was applied at the factory on October 14th, 1908. This rare musket is part of a group of an entire collection of Winchester muskets dating from 1866 to 1895 that took the consigner nearly 50 years to complete. This musket features three barrel bands, extended magazine, post front sight, military rear sight, blued finish, full length walnut forend, sling swivels, walnut carbine buttstock and carbine buttplate. The condition of this rare trial musket is phenomenal; barrel retains approximately 98% original factory blue, as does tube; 95% blue on front band; 80% blue on the rear two bands starting to patina; 95% bright blue on both sides of frame, patina on bottom; 80% bright blue on loading gate; fire blue on rear sight spring; traces of case colors on lever; 80% original blue on buttplate. Stock is near mint with raised grain. Fine action and near mint bore. Comes with angular bayonet. Impossible Model 1894 Musket and one of two known to have been produced for socket bayonet. According to information found on page 53 of the book “Winchester Model 94 2nd Edition” by Renneberg, there were only “five true musket examples: all were produced experimentally and all were originally in the Winchester Museum Reference Collection.” He states that not all five are thought to have survived. He also states that there were two bayonet designs used, the saber type and the socket type as found on this musket. This musket, along with three other muskets are listed, by serial number, in the “Inventory of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company Firearms Reference Collection”, E. Pugsley, et al. Manufactured in 1908. Two of the other muskets are listed with 26" barrels and the third musket barrel length is not listed and all three are indicated as being fitted for saber bayonets. This musket is one of the two remaining muskets made with “angular” (socket) bayonet. The other socket bayonet rifle sold at Julia’s in 2013, neither had a trapdoor. Accompanied by an original socket bayonet of the Winchester Model 1873 style with 18-1/2" triangular bayonet and standard socket with locking ring. If one was to try and complete a collection of Winchester muskets, this would have to be considered the Holy Grail as it is one of only two examples currently known to the hobby. The other musket that sold in 2013 went for $43,125.00. This musket, along with the others in this collection, is the first time a complete collection of muskets has been offered for sale at one time in one place, and this is obviously the rare key to any musket collection. To say it would be hard to improve upon condition would really make no difference, given there aren’t any others to buy. Possibly a once in a lifetime opportunity.Accessories: NoneBarrel Length: 30"Caliber/Bore: .30-30 WCFFFL Status: Curio & RelicManufacturer: WinchesterModel: 1894 MusketPaperwork: YesSerial Number: 418972 Condition: Dimensions:

This musket was received in warehouse August 22nd, 1878 and shipped on August 19th, 1882. This rare musket is part of a group of an entire collection of Winchester muskets dating from 1866 to 1895 that took the consigner nearly 50 years to complete. Another great rarity in Winchester collecting in the 1876 full length musket. The majority of known examples were sent to the Civil Guard of Hawaii. This has several small differences and is not a Hawaiian Civil Guard rifle. The wiping rod, located on the left side of forend, is not a feature of all 1876 muskets as some were produced without this option. Rifle has post front sight, military rear sight, address stamp on top, two bands, rod on side, two sling swivels, blued finish, and walnut stocks with carbine buttplate. No trapdoor. The front barrel band has saber bayonet lug located on right side. Barrel and bands are a pleasing mix of blue with soft patina and sharp legends. The frame is basically a blue-brown patina with gun metal grey around edges. Caliber is not marked. Wood is very good to excellent, very dark with usual dings. Fine action. Strong, clean bore. Comes with a saber bayonet and leather sheath. Determining value is extremely difficult as there are only a few recorded sales of these muskets on the open market and, like a few others, are simply never seen.Accessories: BayonetBarrel Length: 32"Caliber/Bore: .45-75FFL Status: AntiqueManufacturer: WinchesterModel: 1876 MusketPaperwork: YesSerial Number: 5067 Condition: Dimensions:

Serial number applied November 10th, 1897.

Features round barrel with post front sight and military rear sight, three barrel bands, full length wooden forend, carbine butt with trapdoor and two sling swivels. Left side of the frame and barrel have first and second English proof marks and two line barrel address. Standard blued finish. Right side of the stock is stamped "P.S. LA PAZ N3392". As with most existing 1892 muskets, it is believed the bulk were for foreign orders, in this case the rifle made its way through England to La Paz, Bolivia. All metal is a pleasing blue-grey soft homogeneous patina with no pitting. 80% blue on loading gate. Walnut stocks are excellent. Strong, clean, near mint bore. While the 1892 is not the rarest musket, all muskets with the exception of 1866, 1873 and 1895 are scarce to impossible and rarely seen for sale, making it very difficult to estimate value as very few can be found having been sold, especially in such fine original, untouched condition as most collectors know Winchester rifles bound for foreign lands seldom surface in any condition at all.Accessories: NoBarrel Length: 30"Caliber/Bore: .44-40 WCFFFL Status: AntiqueManufacturer: WinchesterModel: 1892 MusketPaperwork: YesSerial Number: 83663 Condition: Dimensions:

Manufactured 1897. This rare musket is part of a group of an entire collection of Winchester muskets dating from 1866 to 1895 that took the consigner nearly 50 years to complete. Winchester desperately tried to get a U.S. contract for the 1895 musket. Tens of thousands of muskets were made for foreign countries in non-American calibers but it was General Miles that placed an order for 10,000 muskets from Winchester in May of 1898 as the demand for arms was heavy due to the Spanish American war. When the parts and muskets had been inspected by the army at the Winchester factory, a large number were rejected for unsubstantial reasons. After discussion, the 10,000 passed inspection. In 1899, 100 were issued in the Philippines but the Ordnance board gave them an unfavorable report and the 100 muskets were returned to the United States and sold to a Boston arms dealer. The remaining 9,900 were sold to a New York dealer who sold them to Cuba in 1906. All of these arms were marked "U.S.". Civilian orders were manufactured in .30 Army and .303 British. It is unknown how many civilian muskets were manufactured for the retail trade but the number had to be very small, and one could search for years for a non-military stamped model. The NRA adopted some 40 muskets, made to comply with club rules, and a few were offered with 24" barrels in .30-03 and .30-06. The .30-40 Krag Models were manufactured with standard 30". This is the first 28" barrel retail Model 1895 musket that we have seen. Efforts to research other models on the market proved unsuccessful, further proving the rarity of this model. Civilian model muskets exhibited several differences with their military counterparts. This rifle remains in nearly new unfired condition with 99% blue on barrel, 98% blue on magazine with touch of wear, 90% blue on frame balance towards rear simply flaked, 100% blue on bolt, 100% Nitre blue on extractor and base of rear sight. Some thinning of finish on bottom of lever and magazine. 75% blue on buttplate; thinning on top and bottom. Rifle is equipped with three sling swivels, two bands and bottom bayonet lug on front band. Near mint bore and Fine action. This is an early post-flatside musket. It was impossible to determine total civilian sale muskets but it is rare as we can find no record of any other examples being sold.Accessories: NoBarrel Length: 28"Caliber/Bore: .30-40 Krag FFL Status: AntiqueManufacturer: WinchesterModel: 1895 MusketPaperwork: No Serial Number: 7159 CORRECTION: The serial number is 7159.

(A) Incredible High Condition Cased Winchester Henry Lever Action Rifle.

Lot #254 (Sale Order 254 of 678)

Manufactured 1862. There are Henry's and then again there are Henry's! When putting together a collection of every lever action Winchester, the Holy Grail and bedrock of that collection has been, and always will be, the Henry rifle. The adage has been that since the Henry is the bedrock of your lever action collection, it was the condition of your Henry that defined the balance of the lever guns. While it is true that finding a Henry is not the real issue in collecting, it is finding a 100% clean, untouched, unmessed with example that still has condition and has never been altered in any way or sense. This is such an example. There was a time when Winchester was as concerned with aesthetics as the English gunmakers. Both tang screws and the buttplate screw were perfectly set to line up at 12 o'clock. The balance of the screws on this gun are near perfect and not deformed which would indicate that this gun has never been apart since it left the factory. The octagon barrel top flat has the early small address. The magazine spring is perfectly formed with no distortion. American walnut stock has the early abrupt comb and perch belly shape with the regular varnish finish. Rifle is equipped with factory swivel on right side that rides 2 - 1/2" from top to dead center; referred to as a low swivel with no visible bump and is scarcer on the right side than the left. It has the early style rounded heel brass buttplate with loading gate (no cleaning rod). All stock screws are hand fitted to the contour of the brass receiver tang and buttplate. The nickel silver front sight is the early half moon profile rounded on both front and rear, and can be seen on page 120 in the book "The Henry Rifle" by Les Quick. The rear sight is the earliest type, referred to as Type A, as seen on page 122, with the horizontal sliding bar graduated to 1,000 yards; this sight is located at the rear sight slot in barrel. A factory additional sight slot can be found on frame as well with no sight and no sign that any sight has been in or out of this slot. The lower tang screw, lower frame screws, left frame screws, upper tang screws and buttplate screws have generous amounts of the early high polish Nitre blue finish. The standard barrel finish was a highly polished bright blue; this original finish has turned to a soft blue-brown homogeneous patina with flashes of bright blue along recesses with some minor age spotting, sharp octagon edges and a perfect barrel legend. The bolt is basically gun metal grey patina and the insides, as visible through the top, are extremely clean with sharp edges and no molestation. Rear bolt still has original blue finish. Factory case colored hammer and lever are basically a brown-grey patina. The brass has sharp edges, virtually free of marring with the exception of some small storage marks. Sideplates show no pry marks. Walnut stock is excellent, proud to metal, does not appear to have ever been removed, with the usual minor abrasions and still retaining the majority of its original factory stock finish. We are aware that there are numerous internal parts numbers on this rifle but given the pristine condition of the screws and fit, we have decided not to disassemble as is normally done, as it is obvious by its present condition that it has never been altered in any way and is guaranteed to be just as it left the factory. The action and loading spring work correctly and the strong, clean, bright rifling is devoid of any pitting or abrasions, making this the strongest example of a high condition Henry we have ever examined. To compliment this fine Henry rifle, it is housed in one of the rare surviving walnut factory display cases. An exact example of this case can be found on page 92 in the book "Volcanic Firearms" by Lewis and Rutter. Given that no photographs of cases are in the Henry Book, one could surmise that these cases were made for the Volcanic and early Henry production, and are never seen on the open market. The walnut case is lined with red velvet and the partitions are identical to the example on page 92, which would allow for the rifle, three full boxes of ammunition, a cleaning rod and sundry accessories. Features four brass hinges and is secured at the front by two swivel locks and center key lock. The lining is in exceptional condition for its age, showing usual wear where the outline of the gun is still visible on the lid lining showing where a Henry rifle has rested for years leaving its indelible outline into the velvet surface. The walnut case itself was refinished at one time, nicely done and is free of cracks. The last addition to this cased set is a full sealed box of Remington UMC .44 Henry flat (50) rimfire cartridges with green label, sealed on all four sides, and bottom label with guarantee and lot number and has been wrapped for protection. Overall, one of the finest existing standard early commercial Henry rifles extant in fine original walnut di

(A) Cased Deluxe Factory Engraved Colt Model 1883 Hammerless Boxlock Shotgun with 2 Barrels.

Lot #255 (Sale Order 255 of 678)

Colt's Model 1883 shotgun was one of the finest products manufactured in the firm's long history with a total of 7,360 manufactured. It was best quality all the way. The 1890 catalog stated this gun was made of the best materials and workmanship, and equal to the most costly and best English sporting gun. The parts are simple, strong and few in number. U.S. President Grover Cleveland received two of these guns in 8 gauge. Features a hammerless boxlock action, standard ejectors, the finest Belgian made Damascus patterns finished in brown, deluxe walnut stocks, finely checkered, ebony forend tips, pistol grip cap, double set triggers, top safety, case colored frame (traces remain). Has two complete matching sets of barrels and forends, all numbered to gun. Complete engraving on frame and trigger guard in scroll pattern with duck on trigger guard and pointer and pheasants on right and left sides. Wood is excellent to near mint with original finish and nice checkering. Buttplate has been replaced with solid black plate that deserves a red English style rubber buttpad. Both forend stocks are excellent and features Deeley release. Both barrels have matted ribs, single bead and doll head lock. Mirror bores and tight as new lock-up. Gun was shipped on January 30th, 1897; one gun to Gibson & Woodworth. It is odd that the factory letter does not mention the 26" barrels, nor does it mention engraving. This is obviously a higher grade gun with presentation plaque on butt. These were expensive guns, even on their introduction, with engraving alone costing $125. Record of engraving found under Cuno Helfricht, Huge Reuss, and the Young Brothers. Both barrels are numbered "2" underneath, and an identical font is found on all serial numbers, with serifs. A similar style of tang engraving on 1883 listed as Helfricht can be found on page 355 of the "Colt Engraving" book, which shows the top tang area. Similar pointer and pheasant engraving is found on page 348, which shows the left panel and bottom frame of the H.S. Kearney gun; shows nearly identical patterns and patterns of scroll engraving at base, Serial No. 7654. The pattern of checkering is identical on both of the matching forearms. Barrels are dent-free and have a true ring, no signs of any solder repairs. We believe this to be Helfricht engraved based on the patterns and the quality of engraving. One of the most beautiful, deluxe 1883 Hammerless Colts we have seen. Comes in a monogrammed leather luggage case with brass buckles that needs a new handle a strap. Mirror bores and locks up tight as new. An extremely fine and rare Helfricht engraved complete two barrel cased set that with the addition of a proper English style red pad would be a show-stopper in any collection.Accessories: Case, Extra BarrelBarrel Length: (A) 28" (B) 26"Chamber : 2 - 5/8"Choke: Modified ImprovedFFL Status: AntiqueGauge: 12 BoreManufacturer: ColtModel: 1883 HammerlessPaperwork: YesSerial Number: 7370 Condition: Dimensions:

Manufactured 1888; second year production. Factory letter states Serial No. 16724 was shipped on July 17th, 1888 as a 12 gauge shogun with 32" barrel. One would generally assume this would be full choke; the barrel currently measures 30 - 1/16" and measures out as improved modified with reblued barrels. There is a repair and return order dated November 4th, 1902, but there is no detail as to work performed; was the barrel shortened and reblued on November 4th? This cannot be determined. The case colors are original, which would indicate the gun was in fine condition when sent for repair. Rarely do you see these lever action shotguns with any amount of finish; the blue has usually turned brown and the case colors are nearly always turned nickel. This example is superb. The barrel and tube retain approximately 90% reapplied blue, just starting to let some patina show through. Walnut stock with round knob is excellent to near mint with beautiful finish. The blued steel shotgun buttplate retains 80% original blue. Frame shows almost 90% color and pattern, albeit not bright, but nearly complete coverage on sides. Action is like new. Fine, shiny bore.

(A) Sharps & Hankins Model 1862 Navy Breechloading Carbine.

Lot #290 (Sale Order 290 of 678)

The carbines made for the Navy were delivered with a leather covering stitched over the barrel to protect it from corrosion at sea. The first delivery Sharps & Hankin rifles were received at the Philadelphia Navy Yard on March 19th, 1862. Boston Navy Yard received another delivery on May 27th. On March 26th, 1862, Sharps & Hankin received a contract for 1,000 leather covered carbines Pattern 1859. In September 1862 the first 250 carbines arrived in Philadelphia issued to the ironclad New Ironsides. Just the possibility that this carbine could have been on board one of the early Civil War Ironclads makes for a very interesting history. This carbine features a large knifeblade replacement front sight in the original front posts, military rear sight, walnut stock, no forend, and brass buttplate. Frame is stamped "SHARPS PATENT 1859" on left side and "SHARPS & HANKINS" on right side.

Historic and Attractive French Saber Attributed to General Brooks and Presented by Lafayette.

Lot #310 (Sale Order 310 of 678)

Many high ranking American officers preferred European sabers in the early 19th century. This sword conforms to the regulations prescribed to Marine Corps Officers in 1804 and is very similar to the saber of Francis Wharton, Commandant of the Marine Corps from 1804 until 119. His sword is on display in the Marine Corps Museum. General Lafayette and General John Brooks met while under the command of General George Washington at Valley Forge in 1778. Brooks, who lived from 1752 until 1825, was very close with Lafayette throughout their lives. In 1824, when Lafayette returned to the United States, he visited Brooks at his home, where Brooks had prepared a celebratory dinner. John Brooks, Jr. was General Brooks' son and lived from 1783 until 1813. According to family tradition, he was sworn into the Marines in 1807 and he took a trip to Paris where he met Lafayette and was presented the sword as a gift for his father. Brooks, Jr. was also sent to France in 1812 as a courier for President Madison. The Brooks family swords are described in the book "Memoirs of Governor John Brooks" by Rev. Charles Brooks. The book states that "John, the son of Governor Brooks, had a sword presented to him by Lafayette in Paris. It had a rich sash attached to it. This sword and sash were on his person when he was killed in the naval battle on Lake Erie." John Brooks, Jr. carried the sword during his War of 1812 service. He was serving on deck with Admiral Perry when he was wounded on September 10, 1813. Two hours later, he died. Perry wrote a letter to General Brooks regarding his son's death and Brooks wrote back requesting his son's "best sword and sash". Brooks asked that the sword be sent to his elder son, Alexander S. Brooks, an Army officer and the administrator of John Jr.'s estate. Alexander then left the sword to his daughter, Lucy, who married Edward Livingston Keyes. They left the sword to their son, Alexander Scammel Brooks Keyes (1846-1909). The sword was passed to his daughter, Lucy Keyes Fiske, who left it to her daughter, Virginia Fiske Timberman. Virginia's son, Thomas Timberman, was the last owner of the sword and a direct descendant of General John Brooks. He sold the sword to William Dykes and there is a color photograph of the two holding this sword included. The sword itself features a curved kilij blade with a wide single fuller on each side and a false edge extending back 11" from the clipped point. Both sides of the blade feature deeply etched 15" panels of blued and gilt decoration, including French Louis XVI Directoire motifs, wreaths, and other designs. Due to the absence of any symbols relating to the French Revolution and sparse military trophies, the sword is suitable as a Sword of Honor or for a Head of State. The panel on the left side shows six stars, possibly representing the highest ranking French officers of the period. The sword was probably made at Klingenthal, possibly a LePage, and has similarities to the French Sword of George Washington, attributed to LePage, displayed in the White House. The classic French-style hilt is made of cast brass and features high-relief foliate decoration, a semi-pistol grip pommel terminating in an elliptical disk and is engraved with a flower. The hilt features languettes on each side, engraved with acanthus leaves. Two-piece mother-of-pearl grips, which have been replaced, which is consistent with the damage that the sword reputedly suffered during the War of 1812. The brass scabbard is highly decorated and features four applied panels, in the French style, with relief scenes of Roman soldiers, arms motifs, and diplomats. Repousse foliate scrolls between panels, pierced asymmetrical brass drag. The sword is in excellent condition, overall. Brass has been polished bright and is coated with protective finish. The blade has been polished and has had some of the gilt background re-applied, retains generous traces of original blue and gilt, as well. Hilt has a small crack on left side, in front of knucklebow and a small repair on the strap under the pommel. Scabbard has some denting on the back. The sword is complete with a letter detailing the provenance and history from William Dykes Antiques. This is a very attractive and historically significant sword and is a museum quality saber!Blade Length: 34"Overall Length: 40"Paperwork: Yes Condition: Dimensions: 40"L

(A) California Fullstock Percussion Kentucky Rifle Signed Craig.

Lot #367 (Sale Order 367 of 678)

According to "California Gunsmiths" by Lawrence P. Shelton, William Craig was born in England and was a gunsmith in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania from 1844-1847. He moved to California in 1857 and is still in the 1860 Census in Sonora. Shortly after 1860 he returned to Pennsylvania. Due to the form of this rifle, it was most likely made in California rather than western Pennsylvania. The rifle features an octagonal steel barrel with an adjustable ramp rear sight with "W. CRAIG" stamped directly behind it and a longer than usual barrel tang. Flat percussion lockplate with stamp-engraved designs. Brass furniture includes a pierced western Pennsylvania influenced four-piece patchbox. Figured maple stock of California form with an elongated relief cheekpiece. Very good condition overall.

(M) Experimental Prototype Colt Mk III J Frame (Delta Model) Double Action Revolver.

Lot #422 (Sale Order 422 of 678)

On October 16th, 2008 Colt shipped a MK III Model J Frame double action revolver experimental prototype with a yellow tag with simply written "Delta" believed to be the issue name for this model if released for public. Features a heavyweight barrel, six shot, double action, fixed sights, stainless steel and furnished with checkered walnut grips, wraparound, revealing grooved backstrap, with wide spur hammer. Furnished without maker, model, caliber or rampant Colt. It appears they used the heavy barrel with stainless construction and a shorter than normal grip frame with wide spur hammer to introduce a new model for law enforcement and/or public. Obviously, it failed whatever tests were required to become a production revolver and hence, was never manufactured for public consumption. It has obviously been test fired with cylinder burn, drag line, and storage wear. Grips are excellent. The heavy barrel gives it a very solid feel and the cylinder pin is exposed. It is extremely hard to evaluate a prototype factory model that never made it to production and is basically a "one-off". It would be of great interest to any student or collector of the modern Colt double action era. While its possible more than this one experimental was made, we have no proof of it and as such, are considering this a one-of-a-kind Colt that cannot be replicated. Gun writers often use the word 'rare', but it is hard to determine what word can be correctly used with a one-of-a-kind experimental gun.Accessories: NoneBarrel Length: 4"Caliber/Bore: .357 MagnumFFL Status: ModernManufacturer: ColtModel: Mk III Experimental PrototypePaperwork: YesSerial Number: X9704 Condition: Dimensions:

(C) U.S. Springfield Model 1922 .30 Heavy Barrel "Match" Special Bolt Action Rifle.

Lot #463 (Sale Order 463 of 678)

In reading the fine article by William R. Hansen in the September 2016 magazine entitled "U.S. Martial Arms Collector" published by Martial Arms expert Wayne Gagner, he writes, "...after rare, what comes next?" This is a fair question given the survival rate of original and unaltered Model 1922 heavy barrel match rifles can be counted on one hand. It is estimated that the vast majority of these rare match rifles were later altered to the type "T" variation. This rifle by serial number is listed in this fine article as example No. 1 and places this rifle as having been assigned to Captain James F. Laughlin, a top rated marksman on the 1922 Massachusetts National Guard team. The right side of the stock is stamped, "Mass. Rifle Team". Captain Laughlin made the international shooting team in 1923 scoring an incredible 248/250. These rifles are instantly recognizable to the knowledgeable collector by the following special features. Springfield Armory first assembled new and distinctively American heavy barrel rifles for the 1921 International Rifle Team held in Leon, France. The original drawing for this rifle can be found on page 106 in William Brophy's book titled "The Springfield 1903 Rifles". The front sight base is integral to the barrel and does not have the typical band. The scope blocks are factory mounted with no provision for rear sight and spaced 5-3/4" on center using standard AO blocks. The 1917 Enfield front barrel band to allow for the large diameter barrel. Features the NRA style pistol grip, two bolt, walnut sporter stock with wide finger grooves. Has the short stem Lyman 48 receiver sight and swept bolt stamped "WL3". Non serif safety. Left side of stock has the deep "D.A.L." in rectangle for Springfield Armory production 1918 - 1942. Wrist has block letter "P" in circle. Sling swivel on toe of stock. Has the Type 7 stamped, cupped steel buttplate. Rifle is in excellent all original untouched condition. The receiver remains the majority of the original factory high polish commercial type blue finish. The barrel retains 85% original factory rust blue, thinning from age. Stock is excellent with a few minor storage dings and a few bumps at the left side of forend. It is equipped with special order, adjustable double set triggers. Bore has an ME reading of 0 and a TE reading of 7. Bolt is polished in the white. Rifle is accompanied by a copy of the U.S. Martial Arms Collector magazine that features an article on this exact rifle. Also comes with a photocopy of Captain Laughlin's shooting score from 1923 from the American Rifleman with a picture of Laughlin that appears to be him holding this exact rifle. According to the article all of the known examples are serial numbered from 124,349 to 124,889 with nine listed known examples that have been identified to date. Long referred to by knowledgeable Springfield collectors as the "ghost rifles" as they are often talked about but never seen. This may be a once in a lifetime chance to add what is arguably the rarest U.S. Springfield Model to your collection. Includes a Springfield research letter. Comes with factory letter.

Lot #506 (Sale Order 506 of 678)

One of the most famous and recognizable English gun manufacturing firms of the 19th century built this fabulous double barrel side by side rifled .577 Howdah pistol that features right side barrel release, blued barrels with scooped rib, engraved breech, rare factory installed sash hook on left side, double hammers, double triggers, fully checkered forearm with ebony tip, checkered saw-handle type stock with nickel shield escutcheon on wrist and a metal grip cap. Right side of frame is stamped "W.W. GREENER / ST. MARYS WORKS BIRMINGHAM" (W.W. Greener manufactured guns at St. Marys Works from 1863 until 1894). Barrels are equipped with an extractor. Functions and locks up like new. Barrels are basically a soft mix of blue and patina. The side locks exhibit sparse engraving and are basically grey patina as is balance of metal. Stocks are excellent with fairly sharp checkering and just a few minor bruises. Action is tight as new. Near mint rifling. This incredibly rare pistol comes housed in a period leather case lined in blue velvet whose contents includes a box of ten Kynoch Solid Snyder black powder cartridges with 480 grain bullet. The built in cartridge block holds an additional five cartridges. There are three ebony handled tools, a nickel oil bottle, an ebony grease jar, a large brass jag and some extra parts. For those unfamiliar with the Howdah pistols, they were designed for the specific purpose of hunting tigers in India while riding in a howdah atop an elephant. This was a favorite pastime for the British officers as well as the social elite and foreign dignitaries during the 1870's and 1880's. Original examples of these pistols are extremely difficult to find due to their original cost and hard use. This is one of the finest examples we have encountered and the only we have seen that is cased and equipped with the rare sash hook. A wonderful piece of early British history, highly coveted yet rarely found.Accessories : CaseBarrel Length: 6"Caliber/Bore: .577FFL Status: AntiqueManufacturer: W.W.
