NICE!! I had a .38SPL Police Positive or Official Police i cant remember now which one it was? It was brand new unfired in the box. I did a timber falling job for a guy and that is how he paid me, funny thing is this particular guy was the known crook in our little town, he had everything imaginable, he bought, sold, and traded ever since i can remember and he ALWAYS came out ahead, if you wheeled and dealed with this Ole boy you needed to take Vaseline along! He was to tight to pay cash for the Log truck load of timber i fell and bucked, he asked me if there was anything i wanted in trade? I told him I'd like to find a decent little Revolver to carry in my Rig, boat, etc. nothing fancy, i mentioned a Ruger SBH, SP-101, etc. He showed up with this Colt, left it in the seat of my truck and told me when i got done working to have a look and see if i was interested? To my COMPLETE shock it was this Old Colt, it was in a little flat box (turned out it was the gun's original box) i agreed to the deal that night when i talked to him :D (he did NOT realize what he had? This was before internet was a big thing etc.) i did some researching on it and ended up selling it for 700 to a friend that collected old guns. The guy i got it from owed me roughly 250 bucks, i didnt do bad on this deal! Kind of wish i had kept it, but i am not a collector of guns, I'm a shooter of them. The ole guy that bought it from me passed away a few years later, lonely old hermit type fella with no family anywhere close by, What family he had showed up one day at his little house in town with moving rigs to clean it out. I often wonder what happened to that old gun?
