I've been checking a bit on it forged steel frame and cylinder plus real case color hardening.
Made for a short time in the 70's
Definitely some likable stuff.
Price wasn't much over a ruger wrangler too.

For that price it would have been criminal to pass it up.

He's had it out for 500 for awhile
Told Sako about it then guess that was a pretty good price.
He told a guy 350 today he wanted to move it.
I thought the Rugers were 2 something so thought it was a steal
Got to be a hundred just to mark it colt.. lol
Guy passed .....I didn't

Did try to get Sako first
Must have been sleeping

One thing that kind of surprised me is it's a 4 clicker.

A couple of things about the Colt, first is that it is a Colt, that automatically makes it a superior firearm. Secondly, the case color is pristine. Usually, case coloring begins to fade over time. I would be surprised if you said that this gun had been taken out of the box in the last 50 years or ever fired.
Man, they say that even a blind hog finds an acorn once in a while, but it seems that someone brings a semi to your house and dumps them off. As lucky as you are, I'd be buying lottery tickets every day.

I'll have fun with it.
Let a bunch of the kids try it
See if it's special to any of them.

For now it's a free ride.
I've tried lots of Colts over the years only one was extraordinary.

That was a colt officers match too

That one is spectacular as well. Am I not remembering correctly that you had a Officers Match .22 as well? BTW, Thanks again for that .38, it goes to the range frequently on handgun days.
