He states.. Colt Archive Letter included... I would want a copy, or a picture of that letter before I would even think of bidding, along with a picture of the serial number on that pistol.

At that price, there would have to be a couple of gold ingots added to the deal.....

What do you members think such a Commando is worth if it is all correct and in the condition, shown?

Ron, it could be ligit, but for that much money ask the seller for a better picture of right side of the barrel for the "CONN" and the "ordanance bomb" marking on the left. The stocks look too new and don't fit right. I it was less than $2k, I would take a chance on it if he sends you a copy of the letter. IMO

"he refuses to provide anymore than posted” What possible reason could he have to say that? LOL

Boy that would be enough for me. I suggest moving on.

Happy Holidays!

Looks too high to me. I have seen them sell from $1,400- $2,500 this year.

Just for the heck of it, I sent the seller a request for photos of the archive letter and serial number, too. If I here anything, I will let you know.

It appears correct but I would still want to see the letter before I bid on it. Mine sold for less but his seems in a little higher condition.

Any As Is auction with no inspection period is always suspicious. This one certainly is. Maybe he is not showing the letter because the configuration shipped does not match completely. His avoiding sending answers to valid questions should be a turn off.

I am the other guy that has the 2inch Commando listed on GB Lettered and indeed a true 2 inch commando, these are rare and do not come up for auction very often.A picture of the Colt letter is on my auction as i was told by Colt there are allot four inch cut-offs out there . One more thing.... everyone seems too supicious about some auctions someone stated the grips look too new, well the grips on mine are perfect and look like they were just made. On most of the two inch models all the grips i have seen look this way ,that plastic if taken carfe of hold up really nice.

The seller of the Commando Jr. that the OP asked about has responded to me. He ordered the expidited colt letter and is awaiting its arrival. He is stating what Colt told him on the phone.

This looks ligit. although pricy IMO

He responded to me, too. I think he is legit.

Here is one just like that was recently sold by one of the forum members. It was top condition. Ron
Colt Commando 2" w Colt Letter : Revolvers at GunBroker.com

I just noticed that my 2-inch Commando was in the same shipment as ssgunnip's, March 20, 1943 as one of one thousand! I wonder if all 1,000 were 2-inch guns? I do not think there were 1,000 2-inch Commandos, but I have no proof of that.

Guys, look closely at the screw that holds the cylinder assembly in place (above trigger on right side). It appears to have been severely distorted and re-parkerized.

I am open to hear about any Snub-nosed snake guns in trade.
