I am currently considering a reproduction of the Colt Walker - the gun is new (unfired), but not in the box......
The indication is that this gun was produced by Colt...
I briefly examined and didn't see anything that I could readily identify to indicate otherwise - i.e. I didn't see Uberti stamped on it anywhere....
A few questions:
1) What specifically do I look for to insure it is a "genuine" Colt? i.e. subtle as well as obvious markings..
2) Does Colt in this instance mean manufactured by Colt, or "for" Colt by someone else?
3) What would such a gun in "pristine" value be worth?
4) Would I be nuts (lose a bunch of value/money) to shoot it?
5) Where would I find a reference for serial numbers/date of manufacture for these?
Thanks,
Tarheel
