Found this old gun
« on: April 07, 2008, 08:03:29 PM »
I was at a friends and they were telling me about a pistol they got from a relative.  I was wondering if anyone could tell me what it might be worth.  These are all the markings on the gun.

Top of Barrel Colt's PT FA MFG. CO
Left side of barrel  Colt Single Action Buntline Scout .22LR
Serial #113707F
has the Colt 4 click hammer with frame mounted firing pin hard plastic grips and the Colt Stallion stamped on the left side of the frame under the cylinder.

Thanks in advance for any information.

That serial # would put it made in 1960   106xxxF  through  131xxxF   that year.


I have a Froniter Scout that I've had since 1962, sounds similar but my plastic grips got chipped years ago.

We done it for Dixie,  nothing else

I really don't have any idea, but you might be able to find one listed on an auction site

this site had one NIB  it started a $770  don't know if it sold or not.

Depending on condition (the frame was aluminum and finish wore easily) you see them at gun shows in the $225 - $350 range, but the ones in the higher ranges are 'nice' - and have boxes and papers.

Check the auction sites.

BUNTLINE SCOUT is worth more, maybe twice as much if in really fine shape. (Based on fairly recent prices around here.)
People like me are the reason people like you have the right to bitch about people like me.
