Hello
I saw a Colt that looked like a baby 1903.
It was a 25 acp. I was thinking of buying it as an addition to my C&R's\
I couldn't find any pictures of it though.
It looks like a model 1903 except it is very small.
Does anyone think they know what it might be?
and if so what is a range of value for what you think it is.
Thanks
merc

Merc,

I'm thinking you saw a 1908 hammerless Colt 25 acp - beautifully made and fun to collect but not really much of a personal defense weapon because of the caliber. In my neck of the woods they run from $150 for a well-used example to $500-700 for pristine original condition guns with original boxes or those in lesser condition but with ivory or pearl grips. They're neat little pistols - I had two and traded them both recently and I regret it.

I agree with johnlindly these are neat little pistols and their prices are only going up! I see them on occasion from about 200.00 up (in original condition), refinished ones of course don't even bring that much...
