    "MADE IN ITALY" makes it a modern reproduction. Colts weren't made in Italy and has no collector value. It's only value is as a shooter. I agree with slumlord's opinion.

    Agreed. There are no Italian reproductions that are particularly valuable, however, a good third model dragoon repro ought to bring about $225 - 250. That's what they commonly go for on GB, plus about $15 for shipping. That's in like new or VG condition.

    Sorry Pardner,

    If it aint a Colt it aint worth much except for havin' fun. Be very careful the Italian jobs are not made too well.

    Shoot Straight,
