Atlas Collectible Firearms is profoundly honored to present an absolute pinnacle of modern firearm curation: a true "Grail" piece 1997 Colt Custom Shop Single Action Army chambered in the classic .45 Long Colt. This exceptional revolver features a 4.75-inch barrel finished in mirror-bright factory nickel, striking an incredible contrast against vibrant, factory fire-blue accents on the screws, cylinder pin, and trigger. The revolver is treated to spectacular, full-coverage factory Class "B" scroll engraving that wraps meticulously around the frame, cylinder, barrel, and backstrap; executed at a master level that closely rivals Class "C" coverage. The Colt Custom Shop Engravers during this period were: George Spring, Dennis Kies, Steve Kamyk, Ben Lane Jr. and Tim George. This masterwork closely resembles the signature hand of Colt Master Engravers Dennis Kies or Steve Kamyk; though is not signed.
This investment-grade firearm is appointed with ultra-rare factory-original genuine Elephant Ivory grips. These premium stocks are specially ordered with highly coveted, deep-dish recessed silver medallions rendered in the traditional pre-war 1st Generation style. Extraordinarily preserved, the master style engraving flows even across the ivory-framed backstrap and the pristine base of the grip frame. Serial number S16966A remains in flawless, pristine New Old Stock condition, completely consumer unfired and devoid of any handling marks or cylinder drag lines.
This museum-grade masterpiece is supported by absolute factory documentation, including its matching Colt Custom Shop blue box and original white outer sleeve marked Model P1841-B+engr. The included Colt Archive Letter verifies that this specific revolver was shipped on October 10, 1997, to Bangers L.P. under Custom Shop Order #5707 as a definitive 1-of-1 configuration shipment. Complete with the original owner's manual, lifetime service agreement, Custom Shop hangs tag, and accessory papers, this is an unparalleled opportunity to anchor a world-class collection with a documented piece of Hartford artistry.
