Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. A THIRTY YEAR ANNIVERSARY EDITION. 600 pages. Hardcover with a dust jacket. A huge volume. A major revision of the classic book which many authorities refer to as the "Bible" of the Colt Single Action field. A greatly expanded color section illustrating some of the finest and rarest Colts in existence. Updated material throughout the pages. Many new and exciting Colts have been analyzed and added to this text. Serial number ranges have been up-dated and questionable material eliminated. All areas have been re-formatted and expanded with new and refreshing up-to-date graphics. The book encompasses all the variants of the Colt Single Action revolver manufactured between 1873 thru 1941. Comprising of three major sections, this book is co-authored by three of the most respected authorities in their field. Section 1 was written by Ron Graham who is well known in the Colt collecting fraternity as the leading authority on the pre-war commercial Single Actions. His knowledge and expertise in this field is recognized throughout the world. His detailed and seemingly miniscule observations of the various markings and changes which transpired throughout this production period are simply remarkable. John Kopec authored the center section on the Colt U.S. inspected Single Action revolvers. His expertise in this seemingly narrow area of Colt collecting is well known and respected throughout the Colt collecting world. This midsection of "A Study" delves deeply into the variants of the U.S. Cavalry revolvers and also encompasses the Militia & Artillery revolvers. Much new data has been compiled into this area of the book. Serial number ranges for the various ordnance inspectors have been updated. Drawing from a source of over 8,000 individual listings in his data-base, Mr. Kopec has been able to pinpoint several areas where changes occurred and where deviations from the norm have now been proven to be correct. The section is well illustrated. The late C. Kenneth Moore authored the third portion of this book. Mr. Moore was meticulous in his approach, paying attention to the finest details. A massive search of the National Archives, Old Military Records, including a "hands-on" study of the Colt Archives records, together with a thorough research on the records located at the Connecticut State Library has resulted in this scholarly contribution. The detailed information available in these chapters will provide today's student of the U.S. Colt Single Action a reliable means to further research his own prized revolver. The book also features a complete detailed index, but best of all, a special "Serial Number Index" has been incorporated into this revised edition. A wonderful book for the collector and historian of Colt Single Action Army Revolvers. Seller Inventory # 3901
