1964 Colorado State Rifle Assn Southern Division - A brass and enameled shooting medal from the Colorado State Rifle Association's 1964 Southern Division competition, awarded for second place in the Marksman class with any sights. The piece features a detailed rifleman in shooting position on the reverse, suspended from an orange and white ribbon beneath an ornate brass bar engraved with the competition details and date. The reverse shows the medal impressed with a maker's mark (Blackinton). The brass has developed a warm natural aging patina consistent with 1960s manufacture, and the ribbon remains vibrant. This is a working competitive award from Colorado's shooting sports heritage, the kind earned by serious marksmen who spent countless hours perfecting their craft at the range. A substantial collectible for those pursuing Colorado shooting medals or mid-century American competition awards.
