Produced in 1918. Two line, two block address and patent markings on the left side of the slide with "COLT AUTOMATIC / CALIBRE 32 RIMLESS SMOKELESS" below the ejection port on the right. Fixed sights, two tone magazine with Colt caliber marking on base and checkered hard rubber grips with "COLT" in oval banner up top and the Rampant Colt imprint at the bottom. With a Colt brown box properly hand numbered to the gun, with the blue label on one end, proper internal labels, Colt "Special Instructions" sheet and component/ instruction sheet.

Excellent, with 95% of the original blue finish, with a small area on both sides of the front portion of the slide/muzzle where the blue has flaked off, with edge and high spot wear down the top of the slide and the bottom rear grip strap. Grips are very good, showing a small pressure dent on the right side and screw escutcheon area with honest wear on both sides. Box is fair, with tape repairs on multiple locations. Action is very good.
