I am always looking for quality Colt Automatic Pistols, Revolvers and firearms related items manufactured before 1950 so please check my Wants list.

Additionally, I am looking for unusual grip types (ivory, pearl and deluxe walnut) as well as Colt Catalogs, advertising pamphlets, instruction sheets, original documentation, manufacturing gauges, presentation cases, etc. If you have a question about one of these models or if you have an item in which I might be interested, you can send an e-mail message to pistols@coltautos.com. Email typically gets the fastest response, but if you would prefer to contact me by phone, my number is 703.281.6628.
