Description:
SUPERB CONDITION, SCARCE 2 1/2" BARRREL POCKET POSITIVE .32 COLT WITH FACTORY LETTER, SHIPPED 1913. This was the "pocket" version of the Police Positive square butt model and has a rounded butt shape. More scarce than the Police Positive, these were made with barrels ranging from 2" (I've never seen a 2") to 6". The 2 1/2" is scarce as is the 6". This was one of Colt's first snubbies. This example appears almmost unfired and retains all the bright high polish blue with only some dulling/brown mixing on the grip straps. Even the cylinder barely has a line- you have to examine closely to see it. All correct markings and exc. fire blue on the hammer back and trigger. There is a small chip on the very bottom of the right grip and another small chip at the bottom edge of the left grip that are very minor that from a side view you can't see. Bright exc. bore, very tight action with about all the blue on the face of the cylinder which indicates this one was rarely if ever fired. Colt letter states caliber, barrel length etc. and shows it was shipped to Simmons Hardware Co., St Louis, MO on Nov. 25, 1913. Most of these little pocket Colts got carried a lot and finding a 112 year old example in this condition is a rarity. $895.
