This specimen boasts a full, high-performance "Super Target" conversion executed by the legendary D.W. King Gun Sight Company of San Francisco, featuring a floating ventilated rib barrel attachment, a micrometer adjustable rear sight, and an illuminated mirror front blade sight. Transcending a mere precision tool, the steel was beautifully hand-engraved by master craftsman Bernard N. Elliott with elaborate scrollwork and deep-relief wildlife game scenes, including a raised Colt and California grizzly bear on the left, and a howling wolf on the right. This historic exhibition package is accompanied by two sets of period-correct, regional target grips: a premium custom wooden checkered set and a stunning pair of floral-patterned dark brown molded Bakelite #202 "Pointer" target grips by W. Murad Manufacturing Co. Please use the photos as final judgment before bidding.
