Restoration of a Colt Model 1905 Military .45

The story of this beautiful Colt 1905 is over a hundred years in the making and while no one knows the story of the first half-century, the second half is pretty amazing.

A family heirloom lost for decades, only recently recovered during renovations to the family home. The Colt was found wrapped in newspaper and stashed amongst the rafters.

A Perfect 1905 Military .45

We don’t come across many Colt Model 1905’s these days and there has been fewer showing-up the last five years. To be expected with total production numbers under sixty-three-hundred.
We estimate there are fewer than fifteen-hundred remaining today so we’re happy whenever we have a chance to see one, let-alone bring one back from inconsequence.

A Jewel in the Rough

When the piece first arrived, we found it shown a bit worse in the client’s photos than in actuality. Though the grips were rotting to the point of disintegration, the slide lock missing, bluing mostly gone with the usual bangs and dents, the metal was surprisingly devoid of pitting or rust, the nomenclature mostly intact and a bore in very good condition. A gem of a barn find.

As in all pin-off restorations, each component of this Colt has been meticulously restored by hand in a process which lasted just over four months.

We believe the efforts are proven in the results.
