Perhaps the Colt 1895 Navy isn’t so lowly anymore?

This one hammered at $1000, by the time you add in buyer’s premium, shipping, and FFL fees, you are easily in excess of $1200. Yes, it does have condition and is in the more desirable .41 Long Colt, but it wasn’t that long ago you could pick these up regularly for much closer to $500 than a grand:


This makes me pleased that I picked this .41 Long Colt Army when I did:

Wood Household hardware Revolver Gas Cylinder
Revolver Trigger Air gun Gun barrel Material property

Ian.
I like your gun.
I have one made in 1900.
I bought so long ago that it cost $100
The one in the auction has a barrel/front sight like an Army Special??

I bought this one 50 years ago, and had much fun in researching it. Lots of history with this Colt model too.

100 years ago and look at the horses and mules
