Description:
For consideration is a very nice Colt Diamondback revolver in .38 Special caliber. The Colt Diamondback is a revolver manufactured by Colt's Manufacturing Company of Hartford, Connecticut, in calibers of .22 LR and .38 Special. Inspired by the successful Colt Python, the Diamondback was manufactured from 1966 to 1988 and was available in barrel lengths of 2½, 4, and 6 inches. Colt introduced the double-action Diamondback as a deluxe model in 1966. It has a wide serrated target hammer, ventilated rib, fully adjustable target quality sights, and full-length barrel underlug. It is a 6-shot revolver with a swing-out cylinder and was available in blue or nickel finishes. Visually, the Diamondback resembles a scaled-down version of the Python, though the action was not tuned as finely as the Python, nor did it receive the Python's Royal Blue finish. While the Python is built on Colt's "I frame," the Diamondback is built on the smaller "D frame," as used in the Detective Special. The Diamondback was dropped from production in 1988. This particular example is in very good mechanical and physical condition exhibiting some light handling marks and some muzzle wear but nothing serious. The ribbed barrel has a good bore and strong rifling. The grips are very good with Colt medallions on each side. Cylinder lock up is very tight in the "fired" condition. There are some areas of finish wear/loss. This Colt is in very good "user" condition.....not perfect but very nice.
