    digging around

    in the back rooms and the attic of the safe I find things that haven't seen the light of day in quite a while.
    Colt Police Positive 32 Police on a 38 frame, 5" barrel, has been fired but never in a holster. 1929 production, I think, that hasn't been verified, yet. All original and beautiful.

    Just received a firm build date from a reputable source 1930, not 1929. AH, good feelings abound!!! Yessiree!!!!

    Nice! Thanks for sharing.
    Thank you, to all who serve; past, present and future. It is people, like you, who are willing to serve that have made this a great nation. I pray for your safety, your family, and the leaders that make decisions that affect you. I will always pray for and respect the office of the President of the United States, I don't have to like the person elected. Until he comes, or calls me home, here by the power of Christ I'll stand.

    It is nice when old guns belong to people that know what they have and how to take care of them. Or as an old friend once said, " Old guns and old guys were made for each other." Take that as a compliment.

    Fletch is right. That's a special piece. I love old Colt revolvers. Seeing them is like looking at a little piece of history. You must be proud.
    I believe guns should used. It's great you found her. Let us know how she shoots.
