Saw this the other day and being a revolver lover could not pass it up.

Lock up is rock solid and everything appears to function perfectly. Looks like it was handled and holstered a lot and maybe shot a little. Bore looks almost perfect and cylinders are extremely clean. Lost a lot of the finish in places but appears to be a solid shooter.

Beautiful classic old Colt. Thumb's up on that one, and may you enjoy shooting it for many years to come.

Nice, my uncle had one like this when he became a cop back in 1937. He retired in 1960 the PD let him keep it. Sadly when he died it was turned in on a NYPD gun buy back and was destroyed.
