High Noon Henry Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 It's time to thin the herd. This is a pair of early model USFA Premium Models. 4.75 Inch Barrels. Solid Walnut 1 piece grips on the Black Powder Frame. Some holster wear. Still in excellent condition. The Case Coloring is excellent. Non-consecutive serial numbers. I have the original boxes and documentation. I am not interested in any trades at this time. $2800 shipped (unsure of California shipping) for the pair from my FFL to yours. Thanks for looking. HNH Now $2500 plus shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt. Saywut Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I’m fuzzy here; what is the significance of a BP frame if I’m a centerfire-only shooter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Noon Henry Posted April 2, 2018 Author Share Posted April 2, 2018 Maybe someone else can explain this better than I can. The revolver doesn't have the normal cross bolt that you press to release the cylinder pin. These have a small screw that must be loosened on the frame to release the cylinder pin. This can be seen if you look closely on the 4th picture. I hope this helps. HNH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Saywut Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Ah, I see it. Thank you for the explanation! I’m into top breaks like Schofields and Laramies, otherwise I’d look seriously at these. Good luck with your sale, sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutch Nichols, SASS #6461 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 To clarify these are early models made from Uberti parts are they not? Those firing pins lead me to believe as such Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Noon Henry Posted April 6, 2018 Author Share Posted April 6, 2018 Yes, these are US Patent Firearms stamped. As I understand it correctly, USFA did import Uberti parts and used their gunsmiths to fit and assemble the early models. If my understanding is correct, USFA used Doug Turnbull for some or all of the finishing on the USPFA premium models. I believe these are high quality firearms. I also read that the name was changed from USPFA to USFA after Colt sued for using the word Patent in the original name. As far as values, that depends on sales history and most importantly, the buyer and the seller. I have other sets of later model USFA models and don’t need 2 sets of 45 when I primarily shoot 38’s.
