The style is another blend of the classical styles of Nimschke and Helfricht and shows like a full "D"coverage. The front sight and hammer are even engraved.

The pattern on this masterpiece is a blending of an American style with that of the style of the German Master, Rudolph Kornbrath. The cuts are deep and bold and the background has been heavily relieved. This wonderful piece has been plated with nickel and then given the treatment of ink and bake followed by a complete fire bluing of all of the small parts.

Looking at this gun you can clearly see the extra time and effort that the artist put into this work. The front sight, the hammer, inside of the gate, the gate seat, and the inside of the trigger guard where the fingers wrap have each felt the artist's chisel. The finish is a perfect nickel plate accented by ink and bake, and fire blue small parts. The action has been custom tuned so if the owner of this Colt decides to fire it the feeling will be of silky smooth precision with a crisp clean trigger break. Finally, the grips on this wonderful Colt are genuine African elephant ivory in the one piece configuration. The color is spectacular and is book matched from side to side. Colts of this quality are very difficult to locate at any price. Signed twice by the engraver, and affordably priced. PRICE (P.O.R.)
SG22	It has been a few months since we posted new guns for sale. Clients just keep buying them before we even get them on the site. We kept this one quiet just so we could get a new gun up. This one is a beauty and worth the wait. It is of course a Colt SAA 3rd generation. Serial number S39893A. It has all of our usual bells and whistles but this one has even more features. It is the ever popular .45 caliber with a 4 3/4" barrel. The engraving is such a strong "C++" that I am tempted to just say it is full "D" coverage. The cutting is flawless and smooth in an updated version of the famous "Lucky Lady" gun that was engraved just after the turn on the last century. This masterpiece is just full of special surprises that can be seen in the pictures. Accentuating the engraving coverage the artist has engraved the front sight, the hammer, the inner part of the trigger guard where the fingers wrap, as well as the inside if the loading gate. Then in a bold departure this artist has taken this work to yet another level of beauty. The top of the hammer is engraved in a twisted rope pattern that precisely matches the twisted rope pattern seen on the top strap of the frame. Not stopping there, the rear face of the cylinder is also engraved in a delicate cross hatch pattern that can only be seen while the gate is open. While the gate is open you may also want to see it's front flat surface. It also is ENGRAVED!! The more you look at this gun, the more you see! The plating is nickel with the added accents of fire bluing to the screws, cylinder pin, ejector rod head and trigger. The surface is inked and baked adding wonderful depth to the overall effect. The panel screws have each been qualified to tighten at precisely the horizontal position. The backstrap ears and rear hammer contour have been perfectly matched and the engraving of this area also matches perfectly. Lastly this gun displays beautifully matching 1 piece African elephant ivory grips. This highly prized Colt will fit into the finest of collections. PRICE (POR)
