[bajagill]

I have a 1st gen black powder frame Colt SAA (Frontier Six Shooter) made in 1882 ser. no. 77xxx w/ 7 1/2" bbl, nickel finish, walnut grip, 44-40 cal. ( yes, it's for sale.) I also have an old Rem. trapdoor 45-70 made in either late 1880's or early '90's. (NOT for sale) Oh yeah, I also have a .45 M/L target pistol made w/ a Colt 1911-style grip frame, 2nd of two made that I am aware of.

Model 53 Winchester lever action rifle.... I know, Not super rare, but it still turns heads at the range.

 

[ColtPythonElite]

Remington Model 29 12 gauge pump...They made 38k of them between 1930 and 1933....It's a pretty nice gun. They aren't worth all that much, but are kind of scarce. It's kind of cool because it's a take down shotgun. It twists in the middle and comes apart in two pieces.

Another toss-up as to which is the most rare:

HARRINGTON AND RICHARDSON HANDY GUN, .22rf single-shot, SN 226.



The gun guide books mention they estimate 225 were made in .22rf so that now rises to 226 with mine, and in 32-20 it's even MORE rare!

WAMO "HAMILTON DUELING PISTOL" .22rf single-shot, marketed VERY BRIEFLY by WHAM-O back in the 1950s. Unknown how many were made, but I'm 77 and have only seen PHOTOS of 2 of them! I had to win an auction lot of TEN guns just to get this ONE!!! The name Hamilton alludes to its similar look of the flintlocks used in the Burr-Hamilton duel in the early 1800s. One writer suggested they should have named it the PIRATE PISTOL, because it upset collectors of the Hamilton Rifle Co. products out of Michigan.



Small 10-page fold-out sales pamphlet at lower left shows the toymaker WHAM-O's ownership of the WAMO brand name even, though they originally answered queries with a denial that they ever made a firearm, and now they just ignore the question if anyone asks.

Took me a LONG time to find the HAMILTON....

The rarest gun I've got in my collection is a Walther P88, definitely not a gun you see around much. Great shooting gun, just never caught on.

Franz Stock, .32ACP. No idea how many were made, my research kinda draws a blank at the start of WWII. No import marks, no idea how long it's been in America. All I know it's old and a sweet shooter.
