Item Number 3120 Category Tag

This Colt was produced in 1928. The pistol’s serial number is 93664. It has the factory nickel plated barrel chambered for the 380 A.C.P. cartridge. The bore is in good condition with a bright bore and sharp lands. There is some light pitting in spots due to corrosive ammunition. This Colt has the original factory plated nickel finish. This finish is in very fine condition. The surface retains the high polish surface with no wear or scratches. The plating would rate a 98% overall condition. The magazine is also the correct magazine with the plated body and high polish floor plate. The action works correctly with no issues. The original factory Pearl grips are in very fine condition. These grips have the Colt screwed in plates on the underside of the grips to center the grips to the frame and keep them from sliding around. These grips have that deep lustered texture of old pearl. There is one hardly noticed tiny chip on the grip by the left panel below the safety cut out. This is a very stunning Colt pistol with these pearl grips! It is very hard to find early plated Colts that retain this amount of high polish finish that is not scratched from use and wear! Here is a stunning example of these early Colts that would be a standout in any collection! The pamphlet is for display only and not for sale.
