Colt 1862 Pocket Police - 2nd Generation Percussion with case **COLT LETTER- SERIAL NUMBER 1**
Description: For sale is a pristine 100% NIB 2nd Generation Colt 1862 Pocket Police. This particular pistol with its original black box, presentation case and accessories is very rare, as it is the 1st serial number produced in the reintroduction of Colt's 2nd Generation Percussion Line of pistols in the 70's-and 80's. As the factory letter states, this pistol was first shipped to Greg Martins in 2008. Meaning it did not leave the Colt Factory for 30+ years after production. The story is Colt got into some financial trouble in the late 2000's. As a result, they took some of their finest pistols that had been held back from public sale and shipped them off to Greg Martins. This pistol, serial number 1, represents the very first pistol to roll off the line and the lowest serial number ever produced for 2nd Gens. Famed collector and author Dennis Russell wrote a lengthy pricing guide, in which this pistol is extensively documented. It reads as follows; Serial Number 49000, Lot number 583, March 29, 2009 , Low Estimate $400, High Estimate $600, Realized Price 2,588. Given an inflation rate of just 5%, the price today would be $5,124. I am asking $5,150 or best offer. Please call today to discuss this Colt Treasure.
