OLD COLT: WE PROVIDE THE PUBLIC WITH AN ONLINE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCE FOR OLD COLT GUNS.
This Colt Model 1900 Long Slide was Shipped to the Simmons Hardware company in St. Louis Missouri on February 26th, 1902 in a 20 gun shipment. Factory letter states that it was furnished with a stub hammer.
This particular Colt 1900 was shipped back to the factory at some point during it's life and was refinished and had the rear sight safety modified to have a fixed sight put in place.
Colt would eventually discontinue the Model 1900 and replace it with the Model 1902 Military and 1902 Sporting variants.
The K on the right trigger guard was applied for pistols that were sent in for repair or refinishing.
