1964-65 10-6.
She was a virgin, when I bought her. Only had factory test firing.
I deflowered her, happily.
Great shooter. She thinks she's a 4" Combat Masterpiece.
My phone camera made the bluing look uneven.

If I can find 'em, I'll post pics of my last year of production Colt Army Special .38. It's a former Detroit PD gun that someone chopped the barrel to about 3", bobbed the hammer spur, checkered the top of the hammer, and installed Colt MOP grips.

She has an issue with occasional misfires that fire on the second strike. I'm thinking perhaps the hammer was bobbed too much, resulting in too little mass.
Or maybe someone tweaked the mainspring to lighten the pull.

Whoever did this also made a new front sight for it. Blade type with serrations on the rear face of it.
