There, I said it.

A four letter word on the Smith and Wesson forum.

I was able to fulfill a bit of a 'gotta have' today.

Picked up this C O L T 1903 in the venerable .32 ACP cartridge.

I have always admired the total design of this hundred year old pistol.

It has quite the provenance also.

Got it home tonight and disassembled it. Ha. First time jitters. Came apart really smooth.
Re-assembly, not real smooth. But, I did it.

Holding this 'melted down' gat in my hand was quite an experience.

Light weight, smoothed over and comfortable to hold. And, no hammer bite.

Anyone help with the year of manufacturing?

Enjoy,
