Description:
 PRE-WAR, GREAT DEPRESSION ERA OFFICERS MODEL .22 LONG RIFLE REVOLVER, #18XXX, MADE 1938. As I've stated many times  before, these 1930s vintage firearms are some of the finest made by all the major manufacturers of the time. Since the terrible economic state of the U.S. brought firearms manufacturing to a fraction of what it was a decade before, only the best gunsmiths and craftsmen remained on the job. They had the time (and expertise) to turn out truly amazing firearms. The fit and finish and timing/tuning of these guns has to be seen and felt to be fully appreciated. The Officers Model revolvers made by Colt during this time had some of the finest hand-tuned actions the company ever turned out. This adjustable sighted target revolver displays excellent blue overall with nice fire blue on the trigger and hammer back. All markings are sharp and clear, the grips show only the lightest handling and even the front of the cylinder retains nearly all the blue indicating that this revolver was shot very little. Bright excellent bore and tight action with amazingly crisp and light trigger pull. About as fine a  double action .22 revolver as ever made.
