Good afternoon to you!! No no misplaced decimal point. Only 1,200 original Colt Boa revolvers were ever manufactured. Produced as a limited custom order in 1985, this extremely rare run makes the Boa one of the most elusive and highly sought-after entries in the Colt "Snake Gun" series. Hope this helps. Have a good rest of your day.

Hi Jeff, no decimal point misplaced. The 1985 Colt BOA with a 4-inch barrel is highly sought after and can sell for around $26,000 based on recent auction prices. The 1985 Colt BOA is a highly collectible firearm due to its limited production of only 600 units of the 4" model. The value of this revolver can vary significantly based on its condition, rarity, and specific features. Excellent condition specimens are valued at $10,000 - $50,000 Stay safe & have a great day!

An original 1985 Colt Boa 4" is a unicorn in the firearms community, with only 600 of this specific barrel length ever produced. Because it is a highly coveted collector's piece, current market prices typically range from $9,500 to over $40,000 depending on condition and whether the original box and paperwork are included. Values for the original constrictor vary drastically based on the following factors: Average Collector Condition ($9,500 – $15,000): Values for standard 4-inch models in excellent-to-mint condition without the original box. Premium Condition with Box ($20,000 – $40,000+): Pristine models or "time capsules" that come with the original matching wood-grain box and documentation routinely command massive premiums at premium auctions like Rock Island Auction.

That is the correct price. I know its crazy but its a colt collectors thing

Hi Jeff and welcome to the community. The price is definitely correct and in line with current market value. The 1985 Colt Boa is one of the rarest "snake guns," with only 1,200 ever produced exclusively for distributor Lew Horton. Current market values range from $9,500 for a loose, good-condition revolver up to $25,000+ for pristine, unfired models complete with the original box and paperwork.
