The Colt Model 1903 Pocket Hammer is the progeny of Colt’s Model 1902, which itself was derived from the Hartford, Connecticut manufacturer’s Model 1900. With its shorter barrel, the .38 ACP-chambered 1903 is essentially a compact version of the 1902 Sporting Model. The low-profile spur hammer on this restored example helps date the pistol as post-1907, with its serial number revealing year of manufacture as 1914.

1916 Colt Commercial 1911
I sent my 1916 manufactured Colt Commercial 1911 for restoration and am blown away by how amazing it looks. Money well spent on what is to become a true family heirloom and will definitely get a lot of attention in the display case. Thank you Turnbull!
Union Switch & Signal
I have had my Dad’s Union Switch & Signal 1911 A-1 for many years. It had been refinished, but not to original condition. Turnbull Restoration craftsmen brought it back to its original condition when it left Swissvale Pa. in 1943. I display it to honor my Dad, and his service in WWII in the United States Marine Corp from 1943 to 1946. It’s in the family to stay!
Worth every penny!
Unbelievable work. Some of the finest craftsmanship I’ve seen in the firearm industry. Turnbull has worked on, restored, and engraved a number of revolvers, rifles and 1911s in my collection. True works of art!
