Manufactured in 1936, these Super .38 pistols were first shown to the public at the August 1928 Camp Perry National Matches, and were available for purchase by the start of 1929. The left side of the matching numbered slide is marked with the two-line address and patent dates while the right side bears the caliber marking along with the Rampant Colt. The serial number is on the right of the frame and the left of the trigger guard is marked "X" over "VP". Fitted with blade and notch sights, wide checkered hammer, long grip safety, arched checkered mainspring housing, replacement checkered grips, and a dual tone .38 Super Auto magazine. The included factory letter confirms the current configuration (grips not listed) as well as shipment to Shapleigh Hardware Co. in St. Louis on 9 June 1936.

Very fine, retains 85% plus of the original blue finish with the balance having thinned to a smooth grey patina, primarily on the edges and grip areas. The replacement grips are excellent with minimal handling marks, replacement grip screws, and sharp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
