Description
The Colt Model 1902 was a groundbreaking early semi-automatic pistol designed by John Moses Browning and manufactured by Colt from 1902 to 1928. An evolution of Browning’s Colt Model 1900, the 1902 improved upon its predecessor with a stronger frame, increased magazine capacity (eight rounds in the Military Model), and a longer slide for better balance and accuracy.
It was produced in two main variants: the Sporting Model, with a shorter grip and no lanyard loop, and the Military Model, featuring a wider grip, slide serrations at the rear, and a lanyard loop for military use. Chambered in .38 ACP, the Model 1902 was an important step in the development of modern service pistols, paving the way for Browning’s later designs, including the legendary Model 1911. Today, it is highly sought after by collectors for its historical significance and elegant early semi-automatic design.
Originally manufactured in 1903 and restored in 2013, this pistol is a excellent example of Colt’s early semi-automatic pistols. This Sporting model features a high polish charcoal blue finish on the frame and slide, which is handsomely offset with nitre blued small parts and a color case hardened hammer. The original grips are included with this pistol, although we provided new, reproduction grips as part of our restoration.
Has been shot since restoration, has been well-maintained. Bore is very good.
