SERIAL NUMBERS 1009 AND 1110 ARE KNOWN TO BE THE GUNS THAT COLT GAVE TO WALKER AND ARE NOW IN A PROMINENT EAST COAST COLLECTION.

For more information on this subject I recommend the following books:

While Nothing to do with Original Colt Walkers is 100% Accurate, this is as close as you will get to a published list of known surviving examples.

My reason for posting this list will become apparent when I tell you that the 'buyer' for my Second Series Colt Walker, Serial number 18XX, has dropped out of the running after dithering for over a year, and it is now once more for sale.

If anybody is interested, it can be examined at Fenland Rural Sports.

PM me for details if required.

BTW, this one, on sale recently for $155,000, has a number of alterations from the original gun -

It is, however, typical of the less-than-pristine end of the Colt Walker market...
