Description
8/15/22 – This is a very nice example of an early, first series Colt Detective Special from 1941.The first series revolvers used a narrower frame, with a shorter ejector rod, checkered hammer spur, half-moon front sight, and a square butt in some instances.It comes with a Colt archive letter stating it was shipped in April of that year to a retailer/sporting goods store.The original blue rates at about 93-95%, with minor wear around the muzzle, on the edges of the square butt, and a little more on the cylinder.Minty bore.Nice grips with sharp wood checkering.
