Tonto's Colt Single Action
We are excited to announce that we have moved the event to Cheyenne, Wyoming this year, and that we have a great selection of Western Collectables that includes the collection of Roger Wilmot.
Colt SAA Revolver in .44-40 caliber with a 7 ½” barrel, hard rubber grips, S/N 155951 with notarized affidavit from John Hart “The Lone Ranger” stating that he obtained this Colt from Jay Silverheels who was his closefriend. Hart further states that he worked with Jay on the iconic “Lone Ranger” television series with other anecdotes about shooting guns and working together. Jay Silverheels was born in Canada as the son toa Mohawk Chief. He was a stuntman in the 1930s and worked in films and movies. He began his career in “The Lone Ranger” with Clayton Moore and continued the series with John Hart who played The Lone Ranger for 52episodes. The pistol shows a brown patina, matching numbers, good markings and worn grips for carry. The action is good and the bore is fair. (Antique)
