Each August I celebrate the ultimate participation trophy, my birthday. It gives me permission to indulge. This piece is my first Gun Broker win, I think I should quit while I'm ahead. 1922 M1903:
Something in the air. Just picked up this 1921 1903 .32 on Friday. Yours looks better than mine. Hope to shoot it a bunch on this Friday at the range. I will sending for a letter also.
I sent off for a letter on my 1922 M1908 (.380acp) on June 6th. I'm hoping that this one comes back as nickel from the factory, but not putting too much faith into that. Looks aftermarket, but we'll see. If it comes back as originally being a blued firearm, I'm going to have it re-blued. I know it'll be expensive but I'm okay with that. Hopefully the letter arrives this year.
A Pocket Hammerless is just class! Alas, somebody else got all the nice ones! I only have ONE of each, and nothing particularly special about them except they are now mine.
Colt put out a run of these a few years ago dine in their royal blue finish. Here's mine. It's a fun little shooter.
OP gun looks about as nice and it's 100 years older!
Now you need a period correct holster. An informal survey of old holsters shows that the Colt pocket auto was second only to the .45 auto in popularity throughout the Twentieth Century.
