Concerning the barrel length, he is more general, stating all guns sold to the Defense Supply Corporation were 4" barrels. However, all appropriate parts on this revolver, including the 2" barrel, are correctly numbered to the gun. Even though some guns were later re-barreled, it is most likely the gun left the factory with a 2" barrel as the markings on the side of the barrel are correct, there are no factory refurbish marks and it was never upgraded with the new safety. The ordnance bomb on the butt is weak but visible and the "P" proof marks are strong on the side of the frame and bottom of the barrel. Also included with the gun is a chronological list of Fort Worth's city Marshals and Chiefs of Police from 1873 to present. It shows Thomas Giles Curry was Police Chief from 1942 _ 1945.

Session Clock Co "Winchester" Store Advertising Clock

Lot #1280 (Sale Order 281 of 887)

This exact logo face is seen on offerings from the Ansonia Clock Co. of the time period and is a faithful reproduction of those faces in every detail; it is "Session Clock Co." marked along its lower edge. The face shows some very light circumferential scuffing in an effort to create age patination which looks rather nice. The pendulum has a nice "Red W" painted on its face, and as-mentioned, the clock seems to keep time well. A very attractive antique clock overall for the gun room or den.

Lot #1284 (Sale Order 285 of 887)

serial #154206, 38 Colt, 4 1/2" barrel with a bright about excellent bore which shows only a couple spots of very light oxidation or perhaps a pinprick pit.

The gun functions loosely mechanically, the extractor does not always drop back down when the barrel is fully pivoted forward. The visible numbers appear matching and someone has cleaned the face of the recoil shield in the area of the firing pin hole with a file. The half-cock notch is worn, or perhaps it is the nose of the trigger, as the trigger sits fairly far forward in its bow and the hammer is not held far back enough on half-cock for the user to actuate the barrel catch and open the gun. A rather high Patridge-style front sight was fitted at the time of the barrel shortening. Overall a good to near very good "example" piece for the budding Western or Smith & Wesson collector.

Also included is the original factory box and shipping sleeve that is correctly end labeled and numbered to the gun. The gun appears to have seen little if any use and no military collection can be complete without one. (87644-54) {MODERN} [Kevin Williams Collection]

It was shipped with blue finish, 4" barrel and checkered walnut square butt grips with U.S. factory stamped on the backstrap. It is probable this gun could have been re-barreled and a new cylinder fitted by Airforce armorers but the frame definitely has not been altered and is probably a factory record error.

The barrel retains about 98% later, excellent quality restored blue. It features a hand-matted rib the full length of the top flat and the makers name "Emil von Nordheim Mehlis" is inlaid in silver atop the rib (there is some light loss of the silver inlay but it is inconsequential). The left and right side flats show loose open foliate scroll with two silver-inlaid bands, the front-most of which has geometric decorations which run forward onto the left and right diagonal flats. The frame and under lever are a silvery case-hardened patina and are overall engraved with loose foliate Germanic scroll with game scenes left and right of deer and roe buck. The checkered and carved English walnut buttstock rates very good showing an old refinish. It has left the metal slightly proud at the frame but was very well done and did not disturb any of the nice carving or checkering. Both left and right of the grip have neatly checkered panels with carved foliate flourishes with background accenting stippling. There is a scalloped horn pistolgrip cap and grooved horn buttplate providing a 13 3/4" length of pull.

A check of Stockel finds no listing of any "Aldoino" at all, this is however the exact spelling from the lockplate; the arm appears very Italian in nature. (37645-14) {ANTIQUE}

The second is an U.S. Army Provost Marshall subarea, Wurzburg, Germany, "Firearms Retention Authorization" tag. The authorization was issued on January 10, 1955, to Charles E. Busey, listed as a civilian and probably working with the Army, the firearm information on this tag is for this Colt and it is signed by Major Frederick M. Drain, Provost Marshall. The tag remains in very good plus condition with scattered light wrinkles and handling marks. The last two documents are a very brief history of a Captain Charles Edward Busey and a partial communication with noted author Charles Pate. Research by the last owner indicates a Captain Charles Edward Busey was born September 12, 1898 in Annandale Virginia and passed in 1983. Not much information is given on his life, although they did find information of him flying between the U.S. and Frankfurt Germany in 1948 which helps support his familiarity of Germany and his return in the mid 1950's. Nonetheless, this is a lightly used but well cared for Colt with some interesting history. (87644-66) {C&R} [Kevin Williams Collection]

The smooth gunmetal gray aluminum Seely grips with "S" monogram rate very good exhibiting light scratches, handling wear, limited areas of discoloration and chip missing on the back of the left panel near the grip pin. In an October 24, 2013, American Rifleman article by noted firearms authority J.B. Wood he states the Seely Night Sight for Firearms was invented and patented by George A. Seely of San Francisco, California, on June 18, 1912, patent number 1,029,951. The original patent drawings illustrate the light mounted on a rifle but Mr. Wood states no rifle mounted sights are known to exist. On this example a small approximately .627" wide x 2.710" steel long tube with a bulb at the rear is mounted to the barrel with split clamps and is supposed to illuminate a lens at the front of the tube but lens is missing. It has a wire running from the light to the specially constructed grips designed to hold a 3 volt Winchester battery and the switch. The wires passed through cuts in the frame to the grip areas, and the grip frame was partially cut away and modified to accommodate the grips, battery and terminal post. The design called for a flat tab mounted to the front of the grips that activated the light / sight when depressed. Judging by the amount of wear, this gun may have been an actual working gun or possibly a demonstrator. The sight unit is missing the small retaining pin that passes through the frame under the crane, the switch assembly, lens cover at the front of the sight tube and not surprisingly the Winchester 3-volt battery. According to Mr. Wood, at the time of the article, the only known remaining Seely Night Sight for Firearms was owned by a collector in Nevada. Also inluded is a copy of the Man at Arms article about the Seely Sight by author Kevin Williams in which this gun is pictured. What we take for granted today for gun mounted lights was quite the achievement in 1911. A rare accessory for the military or police collector. (87644-58) {C&R} [Kevin Williams Collection]

Knox, Memphis Tn to a Mr. Fred Arthur Esq, London, England is included. In the letter Knox relates to his friend Arthur how this was his Deringer for many years and he would carry it while gambling up and down the Missippi and Ohio rivers. He had gambled with Wyatt Earp, Doc Holiday and other well-known gamblers and only had to use the gun once when he caught a fellow cheating. He shot the man in the arm although was aiming for the chest (the fellow lived). He then asks Arthur to send him $20 for the gun when he gets a chance. While written in ink pen, there is no way to tell how old the letter is (and it certainly doesn't pertain to this arm but is included for historical interest). The leather valise is overall very good with light and moderate flaking and crackling with "Capt. J. N. Knox" impressed on the front bottom face. Many J.N. Knox' can be located in the Civil War and Second World War but no definitive information on riverboat gambler "Capt. J. N. Knox"

The band keepers are "(Star)" Tula marked and the cocking knob is "(Triangle)" Izhevsk marked indicating that these parts are of Communist era manufacture so with the "D" marking it is likely that this gun was used by the Finns during World War Two and refurbished later with the Communist era parts. The bands are both Izhevsk marked and are the earlier Czarist solid type. Mosin Nagant rifles have become more desirable in recent years due to their rich history and this rifle will fit great in any military collection. (207879-145) {ANTIQUE} [Craig Brown Collection]

This late 1959 made revolver retains about 90% plus original blue finish with the backstrap starting to thin to gray, high edge wear, scratches and a turn ring on the cylinder. The standard hammer and standard trigger retain bold case-hardened colors with light operational marks. The diamond checkered walnut factory Magna grips with silver S&W medallions are correctly numbered to the gun and rate near excellent with a small section of lightly worn diamond points on the left panel along with a few light handling marks. The revolver features a white outline non-serrated micro adjustable factory rear sight and Baughman ramp front sight. The rear sight blade is slightly bent but the boss appears undamaged. This big N frame includes a factory box in fair shape that is correctly end labeled and numbered to the gun. Also included are a set of diamond checkered walnut factory target grips with silver S&W medallions that rate fair too good with moderate handling wear. If you want a four screw N frame for a shooter this one is the perfect choice. (87898-1) {C&R}
