Unfired Colt 2nd generation 3rd model Dragoon for sale. I don't have the original box. This Colt is part of my collection that was bought from the original collector in the late 80's and has been in the safe since then. My health and age are working against me and I don't want to leave the burden of selling the collection to my wife. The Dragoon is a Model F1740 made in 1981 with a total production of 2731 total units. There is absolutely no rust, and the bore and chambers are in perfect condition. The screw heads are untouched. There is a very faint turn line on the cylinder from the previous owner who was a collector of 2nd gen Colts with over 250 models in his collection. It has a 7 1/2 barrel, 7 groove left hand twist like the originals, weighs 66 ounces, German silver front sight blade, V notch rear, brass backstrap and trigger guard, one piece oiled American walnut grips. Colt specifies 35-40 grains of 3f black powder with 37 grains as a recommended load, number 11 caps, .457 pure lead round ball or pure lead conicals. If you need any additional photos or information let me know. Asking $675 shipped USPS Priority Mail fully insured where legal. I use the shipping guidelines of Cabelas before they stopped shipping black powder arms. I can take Paypal F&F or add the fees or a US Postal Money order only. If paying with Paypal please remit the payment within 24 hours of your I'll take it or I will assume that you are no longer interested and have to pass it to the next buyer. If sending a money order we can work out the details by phone. If interested please start a conversation so we don't take up space on the forum and we can plan on a conversation by phone to finalize the details. I like talking with buyers instead of typing due to paralysis in my right hand. I will provide tracking and
insurance details when shipped. Other cased 2nd gen Colts will be listed as time permits.
