Never in your wildest dreams did colt have ANY THING with the making of that pistol EXCEPT designing a Cartridge for Their /Colt's pistols that happen to fit this makers.
EDITif you offered $100.00[V] you offered 2X more then it could ever be worth.0 -
I hope that his gun smith is better at repairing guns than he is at identifying them because that ain't no Colt. 0 -

No gunsmith I know would ever confuse this Spanish cheap copy of a Colt, a Colt. What is that guy smokin'[?] 0 -
Maybe you can read "Made in Spain" with a magnifying glass. This is a standard Ruby, Spanish .32 Auto cal. (maybe a .25 cal.). Nothing much cheaper ever made in the early 1900's. Anyone who would identify this as a Colt is totally ignorant of firearms. 0 -
i have a truck for sell and the guy wants to trade the gun and cash for it. BUT,,,he claims a gun smith appraised it as colt and at $1000. i offed $100 for it and he has not replied. 0 -
Maybe a grand in monopoly money. Federal Reserve Note soon not to far behind. 0 -
Many thousands were made for the French Army, by Spanish manufacturers during World War one. The were exported and sold as surplus to the U.S. during the 50's & 60's. I remember them being sold for around $20, then. Like everything else they have gone up in price, but still a hard sell with few willing buyers. My WAG if it's functional with original magazine, between $75 & $125. 0 -
And it is not really WORTH that much unless you are trying to accumulate a novelty collection on the cheap. A full set of the 44 contractors for Ruby pattern pistols would be kind of interesting... but still not very valuable.
