Manufactured in 1917. Fixed sights, with the two line, two block address and patent dates on the left side of the slide, with the Rampant Colt behind the serrations and "AUTOMATIC COLT/CALIBRE 38 RIMLESS SMOKELESS" on the right. Equipped with a slide catch, a lanyard ring on the square butt, and checkered Colt banner grips.

Fine, with 60% of the original finish, showing bright edge wear, a mixed gray and brown patina on the grip straps, and scattered spotting and handling marks overall. Grips are very good, with a small crack in the left panel and mild dents. Mechanically excellent.
