An anonymous bidder paid $920,000 on Tuesday for the .44-caliber revolver, said officials from the James D. Julia auction house. It was made for U.S. marshals in the 1840s and its previous owner said he never fired it.

The price included a buyer's fee of $120,000 charged by the auctioneer.

you know, i would SO spend that kind of money on a piece of history....if i had that kind of money to spend.


but it has to be ONE bad ass firearm.
like wild bills engraved navy revolvers, or the gun that killed lincoln....something to that extent.

i dont think i could spend that much on JUST the age and condition of it alone....




one thing is for sure...there is one happy collector out there

Julia was also the auctioneer for the previous Colt record of $480,000.
You should probably think about shaving your legs, first.

I'd collect infamious firearms.  Like bill the kid's revolver
I stood in line for four hours. They better give me a Wal-Mart gift card, or something.  - Rodney Booker, Job Fair attendee.

Wow what a price for that gun. I loves guns too so I understand why he'd pay that much. Hehe

I wonder if my Dad could get any money for his WW2 collection.
