The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - I Don't Think I Buy The "Too Expensive To Make Colt DA Revolvers" Arguement Anymore

If this brings any bearing into the argument, I have an old 1928 Police Positive with a rebound lever/cylinder latch issue that is far too cost prohibitive for me to address (I know, I've tried). We all know that the old Colt DAs have become wallhangers because of their low demand/high cost-not easy to find parts. What kind of a market would they have just refurbishing old DA revolvers from yesteryear rotting in closets all over the country?
