Description:
Manufactured in 1931. Fixed sights, with the two-line Hartford address and patent dates on the left side of the matching numbered slide and "COLT SUPER .38/ AUTOMATIC" on the right next to the Rampant Colt. Wide milled hammer, short milled trigger and arched checkered mainspring housing, with checkered grips, two-tone magazine and an unmarked barrel.
Rating Definition:
Very fine with 85% plus of the slightly faded original blue finish, showing a gray patina on the grip straps, trigger guard and the rear of the frame, scattered light dings and scratches, mild spotting in the slide serrations, a few takedown lines and bright edge wear. The grips are fine, with mild dents. Mechanically excellent.
