packed auction hall, two camera crews, and an incessantly buzzing phone bank made sure that the action simmered all day long. Even within the first hour of the auction, bids for firearms were soaring over their high estimates. Lot 48 was an antique Winchester Deluxe 1873 with a high estimate of $3,500 that sold for $10,350. At mid-day, Lot 303 came up for bid, a historic Cole Agee engraved and gold plated Colt Single Action Army revolver documented as being Roy Rogers’ holster gun. Love for the “King of the Cowboys” still runs strong as the fancy little revolver more than doubled its high estimate by selling for $57,500. Highend shotguns also saw a lot of activity that day. Browning Citori shotguns were consistently selling high, but a true overachiever was the engraved A.H. Fox XE Grade
The historic Cole Agee engraved and goldplated Colt Single Action Army revolver with pearl grips and documented as being Roy Rogers’ “holster gun” sold for $57,500. It came from the Roy Rogers Dale Evans museum.

All those things undoubtedly enhanced the event, but the real attraction of the 2015 event was the quality selection of the 2,800+ collector firearms.
