Winner of NRA Miniature silver medal #63 at the 2007 NRA annual meetings!!!!!!! This is an exact 47% scale miniature of Colt 1860 Army revolver down to the serial # 162978E. Colt 1860 Army revolver serial #162978E was gold inlaid and engraved by Colt master engraver Gustave Young. The grips were especially carved ebony with a navy anchor on one side and the seated lady liberty on the other.

This is a stunning 1/2 scale miniature Winchester 1876 "One of One Hundred" rifle. The rifle was made by master miniature maker Michael Barrett. The late Terry Farrand did the impeccable surface finish work and slicked up the internal parts so that the action works smooth as silk. James Corpe finished the beautiful highly figured 10X walnut stock and forearm with a hand rubbed oil finish and checkered them at 36 lines per inch. Master engraver Roger Sampson engraved the barrel markings, serial number (1), 45-75 caliber markings, the muzzle and breech ends of the barrel with scrolls, the "One of One Hundred" panel on the top barrel flat just ahead of the receiver, and inlaid the gold bands at the muzzle and breech ends of the barrel. Doug Turnbull did his magic in doing the beautiful blue and case colored finish. Includes a long range tang sight. An awesome one of a kind miniature that just takes your breath away. Additional photos available upon request. Photo 2, Photo 3, Photo 4, Photo 5, Photo 6, Photo 7, Photo 8, Photo 9, Photo 10 Price: $10,475.00
