I just finished cleaning my lil old .32 ACP hammerless Colt. For those of you who have any sort of experience, do these barrels have a little wiggle to them when the chamber is open? Im just a little curious if i should take her to the range tomorrow, or drop her off at the smith on Monday.

Just to make sure we are all thinking the same pistol here, this is the one im talking about.

Is that Colt as great a pistol as people say it is?

Please say no.:)

Yes and Yes.

They are a bit of a pain in the rear to get re-assembled sometimes, but wonderful little guns.

My dad has three of 'em. Great little things & I ain't a auto guy, or a colt guy but I really like 'em. The .380's are uber neato!

I have a .32 and a .380. Love them both.

I have the .380 and they are very neat little pistols. I don't know why they can't make something so flat and concealable today.

Well,that does nothing but make me want one of these classics even more.:D

But I don't have a grand for one in fair condition,yet.

I have two of them. What beautiful little machines! The function and accuracy is very good. So, YES.

I shot a whole box of 32's through the colt. You guys were right about it being a good little gun! Im probably going to keep this for a while.

I just bought one and it is a very neat little pistol.

Can anyone recommend a holster/holster maker?

I'm wondering if it can be carried comfortably in a pocket holster?
