Description:

The included factory letter confirms some of the revolver's current configuration, except for the listed Patridge sights and barrel length of 7 1/2 inches, including .38 caliber chambering, blue finish, and type of grips not listed when sent in a lone shipment to the City of Toledo Division of Supplies in Toledo, Ohio, on September 1, 1923. Features a Colt-King Super target vent rib fitted with King "Ramp Reflector" blade front and notch rear sights, a widened checkered hammer spur, the standard one-line Colt address on top of the barrel, model and caliber markings between Maltese crosses on the left of the barrel, Rampant Colt on the left of the frame, along with "triangle/VP" and "3" on the left side of the trigger guard. Matching visible serial numbers on the frame and crane. Fitted with a set of over-sized checkered walnut finger-groove grips and a black rubber Pachmayr grip adapter on the front strap.

Rating Definition:

Very fine as Colt-King upgraded, retaining 85% plus original blue finish with some light edge wear, a minor cylinder drag line, a few minor visible patches of freckling, and some minor handling marks. The grips are excellent crisp checkering and slightly loose grip adapter. Mechanically excellent.
