81 year old Colt, 1" groups!

Just got this Colt Official Police back from my father. I gave it to him years ago for Christmas, but he's gotten too old to shoot any more, so now it's home again.

Took it down to my field and shot a few rounds to confirm the sights and wow, I forgot how good this one shoots. Six rounds all single action, two handed standing, from various distances into a 1" group. One at five yard, one at seven yards, two at 10 yards, one at 12 yards and one at 13 yards. The load was factory CCI Blazer 158 grain fmj. Sights appear to be right on, holding center hold.

This OP is from 1937 and in excellent condition.
