Manufactured in 1931, this is an exceptionally fine example of a pre-World War II Colt Ace pistol. The left side of the slide is marked with the two-line address and patent dates followed by the Rampant Colt, and the Colt Ace logo and caliber markings are on the right. The serial number is on the right side of the frame. The trigger guard is marked "K20" on the right and "3/VP" on the left. It is fitted with blade front (with red insert) and adjustable notch rear sights, a short checkered trigger, wide checkered hammer, checkered arched mainspring housing, a set of fully checkered grips, and a two-tone magazine with Colt Ace marked base.
