Every now and then I'll carry my 1941 DS to the range. Sweet shooter.

I'll be honest, I know very little about Colts but found a 1932 DS at a Pawn shop 2 weeks ago. After research, I believe it's a first issue, square butt with original grips and a bit of freckling but overall good condition for it's age. Not carrying it yet.

An old DS was my issued weapon in 1974 when I got into a gunfight, along w/two other officers, w/armed robbery suspects. We were on a small dark parking lot @ 6 PM and that little gun saved my butt.
