Description:
NICE 1932 COLT Snub Nose “DETECTIVE SPECIAL” .38 C&R Revolver PEARL GRIPS 

Perfect CONCEAL & CARRY Self Defense Pistol

Here we present a C&R Colt Snub Nose Detective Special made in 1932 by the Colt Manufacturing Company in Hartford, Connecticut, with a production run from 1927 through 1995. The Colt Detective Special is a six-shot, carbon steel framed, 2" or 3" barreled, double-action revolver, and the first example of a class of firearms known as "snubnose revolvers". This model revolver, as the name "Detective Special" s0uggests, was intended to be a concealed weapon used by plainclothes police detectives.

Introduced in 1927, the Detective Special was the first short-barreled revolver produced with a modern swing-out frame. It was designed from the outset to be chambered for higher-powered cartridges such as the .38 Special, considered to be a powerful caliber for a concealable pocket revolver of the day. The Detective Special uses a slightly smaller frame than the Colt Official Police.

The overall condition is fine. Original finish. Excellent action. Bright and shiny bore with crisp rifling. Markings are sharp. The pearl grips are in fine shape, albeit negligibly oversized.
