Description:

Manufactured in 1934. The matching numbered slide has the two line address and patent dates on the left side of the slide, and the right side has the caliber marking with the Rampant Colt. The frame is marked "3/VP" and "60" on the trigger guard, with a flat top rear sight, checkered slide stop, checkered hammer, trigger and mainspring housing, checkered grips, two-tone blue magazine and a "45 COLT" marked barrel.

Rating Definition:

Very fine. 85% plus original blue finish remains with scattered small scratches, light edge wear, and traces of spotting. The hammer spur has been slightly shortened. There is a once cleaned spot on top of the slide that has been touched up with cold blue. Grips are also fine with sharp checkering and some small dings. Mechanically excellent.
