Manufacturer: Colt
Model: Pocket Positive
Type: Revolver
Gauge: 32 police
Barrel: 2 1/2 inch round
Finish: blue
Grip: hard rubber
Stock:
Item Views: 1634
Serial Number:
Catalog Page: 307
Class: Curio & Relic Handgun
Description:

The top of the barrel is marked with the two line address/patent dates, "POCKET/POSITIVE 32 POLICE CTG." on the left side and the Rampant Colt on the left side of the frame. Blade front, frame notch rear sights, all blue finish and fitted with checkered hard rubber grips with "COLT" in an oval at the top. The accompanying factory letter verifies the caliber, barrel length, blue finish with the grips as "Not Listed" and that it was shipped as 1 to Powell and Clement Company in Cincinnati, Ohio on April 20, 1933.

Rating Definition:

Excellent. The revolver retains 99% plus of the original finish with some contrasting shades of blue finish on the right side of the frame, possibly caused by a solvent or cleaner, a couple tiny dings and a cylinder drag line. The grips are near new with only a couple of light scuffs on the bottom of the right panel and sharp checkering. The markings are crisp and clear. The action is fine.
