Beat up old pony
I found this little gem while making my rounds of the local pawn shops today.
Rust pitted, poorly polished - even over polished. Reblued, hammer and trigger lightly jeweled. Latch in the white. Mismatched grips with a chunk broken out of the toe of the left one. Missing ejector rod knob. Lockup is OK, with a little play. Nice smooth action though. Bore & cylinders look shiny but well used.
I'm not even sure what model this is. New Army Double Action? New Navy Double Action? Something else? I know very little about Colts, as the only one I own is a Government Model 380. Any Colt guys here that can tell me more about it?
For a hang-tag price of $120 I'm seriously considering it just to have a Colt revolver, even if it is just shooter in poor condition.
