I picked this up last weekend. New in Box. Two digit serial#. Kind of gaudy. The words "Sempler Fidelis"(always faithful) engraved on the backstrap after Sam Colts signature. Not really my kind of gun, but I thought some might enjoy seeing it.

Dave, I got this First Model Dragoon along with the Musketoon I posted here from the same source. It is a Colt Signature Series 2nd Gen. Serial # is less than 40. I think it was made around 1978. It is in the original Colt box. I have hidden it from myself as I want to shoot it. Cylinder has never been turned, so that would be a mistake. Serial # is three digit, starting with a zero, so it is most likly one of 99.smokin .50 said:So we're just dying to know more about this 1st Model Dragoon! Age, maker, how did you get it, provenance, paperwork, etc. And just so you got my first post, it's NOT a Walker!
