    6 million for the Colt that killed Billy the Kid ...

    Do you think Pat Garret knew at the time that the gun would be famous ?
    If not then the gun might well have vanished among all the other colts.
    And Garret may have owned more than one.
    I hope the provenance is iron-clad or someone's going to be really pissed.

    That's a lot of money for a pistol but it is a "one of a kind", more power to em.

      Jesse James' mother used to buy guns at pawn shops and sell them. for big bucks, along with a letter testifying to their authenticity.
