Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Introduced in 1962 to update Colt's incredibly successful rimfire single-action line, the Frontier Scout '62 replaced earlier aluminum-framed variants w/ a heftier, heavy-alloy "Midnight" frame architecture. Scaled down to approximately 7/8ths the size of the legendary Single Action Army (SAA) "Peacemaker," the Frontier Scout '62 was engineered to provide the exact balance, handling, and single-action mechanical feel of Colt's iconic western revolvers in an affordable, soft-recoiling .22 LR platform. Featuring Colt's rich deep blued finish across its barrel and 6-round cylinder alongside distinctive factory "Staglon" (faux stag horn) grip panels featuring silver Rampant Colt medallions, the Scout '62 gained instant popularity among plinkers, target shooters, and western firearms purists. Produced in Hartford, Connecticut during the golden era of mid-century Colt manufacturing, complete boxed examples of the Frontier Scout '62 represent highly collectible pieces of American revolver heritage.
This specific example is an authentic Colt Frontier Scout '62 revolver bearing serial number 50898P, manufactured in Hartford, Connecticut in 1968. Chambered in .22 Long Rifle, it features a 4.75-inch steel barrel, side loading gate, ejector rod assembly, fixed sights, original Midnight finish, and factory faux-stag horn grips complete w/ silver Rampant Colt medallions. The metal finish displays high overall coverage w/ light operational handling wear and subtle edge thinning along the barrel tip and frame corners. Mechanically, the single-action hammer cocks w/ four crisp, distinct Colt clicks, cylinder lockup is tight, timing is precise, and the 4.75-inch bore remains mirror-bright w/ sharp rifling throughout. Offered complete in its original factory wooden-grain presentation box w/ yellow interior insert, this 1967 Frontier Scout '62 presents a clean, investment-grade package for Colt collectors and classic single-action rimfire purists.
