Description:

Manufactured in 1922. It is equipped with a blade front and notch rear sights. Barrel has the standard one line caliber marking on the left and the two-line, three-date patent markings on the top. The frame is marked with the Rampant Colt, Verified Proof, and "3" inspector's mark on the left side, and is equipped with a checkered hammer, smooth trigger, square cylinder latch, and checkered ejector rod head.

Rating Definition:

Fine, with approximately 60% of the faded original blue finish, with wear and a mixed brown and gray patina forming on the grip straps, trigger guard, and the rear of the frame, with some edge wear, light spotting, and minor handling marks overall. The grips are very good, with some pressure dents around the butt and crisp checkering. The action is excellent.
