I have a set of Colt Boa revolvers. they were made in 1984
or 1985. they were sold thru Lew Horton. there were 1200
produced. Both 4 and 6 inch barrels. I have one set of a 4
and a 6 inch with original boxes never fired. What are they
worth?

The Colt Boa's are valued in the $450 - $500 range. Maybe more from a serious collector.

these are a matching set, The serial numbers are only one
number apart. I know that the sets are worth more than
individual guns.

Not that I know squat about this, but search back on these pages and I think you`ll find there was someone with a matched set of these and they were worth much more than 5-6 hundred. In the thousands, if I`m not mistaken.

by the way WELCOME!!

You'll see the Boa cased sets being offered around at $1500 and sometimes higher, but they rarely sell. Market is VERY soft for this...
