Am out of town so won't be able to send pix until Saturday.

Basically, the guns are Colt 125 Anniversary models, consecutively numbered pair, Gold plated grip straps with US Border Patrol engraved on grip and Bill Jordan engraved on butt. Colt factory letter attests to all of this, says they were ordered by and shipped to Jordan at his home in Texas in 1963. Colt letter says the pair are unusual, aside from Jordan association by virtue of consecutive serials, factory engraving and that most guns of this series were purchased by Colt employees. Guns have not had cylinders turned. Comes cased in wooden case along with a lewtter from Jordan explaining the guns as a gift to a Texas physician in return for the physican's gift to him of a Churchill shotgun.

Additional material on Jordan accompanies the set. They are a truly impressive set with 7.5" barrels and in cal 45LC.
