John Kopec has passed away
While the name may not be familiar to many...if you have any familiarity with the Colt Single-Action Army revolver you've likely heard the name John Kopec. John was the preeminent authority on the SAA...particularly the US Army issued revolvers. He was a lifelong researcher into them and an accomplished author on the subject. He lived a full 97 years.
John authenticated many, many of these revolvers and issued letters with his seal and signature...bronze, silver and gold...which added great value to them.
He was a true gentleman and will be greatly missed. John...Rest in Peace.
John A. Kopec
