Atlas Collectible Firearms is profoundly honored to present a museum-tier masterwork of modern firearms development and a true "Holy Grail" for the advanced Colt investor: the FIRST EVER MADE Prototype Colt Anaconda First Edition. Chambered in .44 Magnum / .44 S&W Special, this breathtaking double-action revolver features a 6-inch ventilated rib barrel treated to a flawless factory Ultimate Bright Stainless Steel finish. Bearing the historic experimental prototype serial number X27930, this exact handgun was produced in late 1989 early 1990 inside the prestigious Colt Model Shop at the Hartford Factory. It stands as an absolute milestone in firearms engineering, holding the distinction of being the first prototype ever machined on a CNC machining center to introduce the Anaconda double-action system to the Colt product line.
The provenance of this historic piece is completely documented by its accompanying Colt Archive Letter dated February 15, 2016. The factory documentation confirms that the revolver was engineered by Kevin Langevin and later on owned by him, a prominent Colt Factory Engineer who served as a vital member of the Anaconda's original design and development team. The firearm is configured exactly as specified in the ledger, sporting black neoprene finger-grooved combat-style stocks, a red insert front sight, and a fully adjustable white outline rear sight. Kept securely within the private Colt factory vault collection from its development until June 1, 2011, this pristine collector-grade revolver shows absolutely no signs of consumer use.
This museum-quality investment piece arrives 100% complete with its original factory packaging and documentation. The comprehensive package includes the original Colt white outer shipping box with the matching serial-numbered end label showing model MM3060FE, the iconic blue Colt hard case with the Hartford medallion, the unblemished original Colt Archive Letter, the factory hang tag, and the original product manual and insert literature. All serial numbers match perfectly across the frame crane and the factory box label. This represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a certified cornerstone of modern Colt manufacturing history—the very first Anaconda ever machined and is the very first .44 Magnum revolver EVER MADE by Colt Manufacturing Co.!!!!
