 American Beauty -
The Prewar Colt National Match Government Model Pistol
Timothy J. Mullin(72 pages)CGP
Price $54.95 HB
Times were different then. The stock market crash of
October, 1929 heralded the worst depression in American history. At the same
time, one-handed target shooting was considered by many to be a very popular
and highly respectable pastime.
In January, 1932, Colt's introduced their hand-fitted, premium-grade
National Match Government Model pistol. Eminently suited for target
shooting, the National Match carried a sticker price of $40.00 in the days
when a brand-new Government Model cost $21.00 or $22.00. Perhaps this is why
they were made for only eight short years, and why they may well be rarer,
in terms of numbers produced, than the Colt Paterson or Walker. Includes 20
spectacular color photos of factory-engraved guns and other authenticated
upgrades, including double-carved ivory grips!
