In 1984, Winchester and Colt collaborated to manufacture a special commemorative set to honor their symbiotic relationship during Western Expansion. Winchester and Colt were the two big companies that aided in "winning the West" with their Iconic firearms. Colt's was the Single Action Army "peacemaker," and Winchester's was the Winchester 1894 Lever-Action Rifle!
These sets were produced in extremely limited numbers, and many have been split apart over the years. A complete serial number matching set like this rarely appears on the open market and is highly sought after by collectors worldwide!

Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
In the year 1984, two legendary American firearm manufacturers, Winchester and Colt, united to create a special commemorative set that celebrated their intertwined histories during the Western Expansion. The set included two iconic guns - a Colt Single Action Army revolver and a Winchester 1894 carbine in .44-40 - that were both beautifully adorned with intricate gold leaf engravings, symbolizing the deep-rooted relationship between the two companies. This particular set was numbered 1,179 out of the 4,440 sets produced and embodied the spirit of the Wild West and the indomitable courage of those who braved the rugged terrain in search of a better life.

The Colt Single Action Army revolver, also known as the Peacemaker, was a staple of the American frontier and was widely used by lawmen and outlaws alike. The Winchester 1894 carbine, on the other hand, was a popular hunting rifle that was used extensively during the Western Expansion. Together, they represent the essence of American firearms, and their partnership serves as a testament to the ingenuity and perseverance of the American spirit. This commemorative set is a true masterpiece that any collector of classic American firearms would be proud to own. It combines the heritage and legacy of two of the most renowned American firearm manufacturers in history. It is a fitting tribute to the Wild West and the pioneers who shaped it and a reminder of the enduring legacy of these two classic American companies.
