The frame shows hight edge wear with intermittent scuffs and thinning blue on the back strap. The grips have sharp checkering and are in excellent condition.

These Colt Junior pistols were manufactured by Astra in Spain for Colt from 1958 through 1968. They are known for their 2.25-inch barrel, 13-ounce weight, and simple blowback operation. The pistol was imported by Colt until the Gun Control Act of 1968 prohibited the import of such small handguns. From 1970 to 1972, Colt circumvented the import ban by having FIE (Firearms Import & Export Corporation of Miami, FL) import the parts for assembly in the US, before ceasing production.
