This is the Colt ordered by Bat Masterton ( specs) in 1885, here is the letter, i got one of the 300 made... Thanks to Clay for giving us a shot at unique firearms up here in Kanadea... JP.

Just ordered from Amazon some of this famous Renaissance polish for my Colt... JP.

 

[Tenguns]

Neat. I thought you were talking about a Longbranch ( made in Canada ) Colt. Since I'm not a Colt guy, I was confused!

 

[Ganderite]

I was confused, too. Still am. How did "Longbranch" become associated with this revolver?

My understanding is its because this is the saloon where the Earps, Doc, and the Mastersons, etc spent somee time together and this gun is built from the original order placed by Bat.

I recalled after reading your explaination earing it in a Youtube video were the gentleman was stating about the same thing... JP.

 

[incorrigible]

not sure what was paid but they run about $3000 US... only expensive if you can afford i guess Definitely a nice piece!
