The revolver was based on the standard Single Action Army (SAA) platform, but featured several unique enhancements. These included a distinctive 14-inch barrel, a blue-finished frame, a color-case hardened trigger guard and backstrap, and an elaborately engraved cylinder.
Exceptional Craftsmanship and Finish
The Marshal Western 14 was renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship. Each revolver was meticulously assembled by skilled artisans, with attention to every detail. The blue finish on the frame was deep and lustrous, while the color-case hardening on the trigger guard and backstrap exhibited vibrant hues.
The cylinder engraving was particularly noteworthy. It featured intricate scrollwork, a frontier scene depicting a cowboy riding through a desolate landscape, and the inscription "Marshal Western 14." The engraving was executed with precision and artistry, making each revolver a true work of art.
Historical Significance and Collectibility
Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the Marshal Western 14 also holds significant historical value. It was one of the first commemorative models produced by Colt, and its limited production run of only 1000 pieces has made it highly collectible. Today, these revolvers are sought after by collectors worldwide and command substantial prices at auction.
The Marshal Western 14 is more than just a firearm; it is a tangible piece of American history and a testament to the legacy of Colt's craftsmanship. Its pristine condition and historical significance make it a treasured addition to any collection.
