Description:
c1922 NEW JERSEY STATE POLICE COLT ARMY SPECIAL .38 Special REVOLVER C&R

NJSP Marked Sidearm from the Roaring Twenties!

Here we present a C&R Colt Army Special Double Action Revolver, made in 1922 by the Colt Manufacturing Company. These had a production run from 1908 through 1927 in Hartford, Connecticut. The Colt Army Special was a pistol designed by Colt to replace the various models of Colt New Army and New Navy revolvers. It was in production from 1908 to 1927 in hopes of securing a military contract. The United States Army instead adopted the Colt M1909 New Service revolver in .45 Long Colt and later the Colt M1911 Self-Loading pistol in the .45 ACP cartridge after extensive trials.


This one has been engraved on the back strap with “N.J.S.P.” with a triangle and the number “17” within. This would have been an early police weapon in the agency’s arsenal and it is likely that 17 is an inventory or badge number.



The overall condition is very good. Nicely refinished. Excellent action. Bright bore. Both grips are in good shape with average handling. The left grip is missing a chip at the top, just above the “COLT” logo. Legible markings. Numbers match.

This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic.

Barrel is 6 inches.

Caliber: .38 Colt

Overall condition as seen in photos.
