1968 mfg COLT “TROOPER” .357 Magnum Double Action SELF DEFENSE Revolver C&R
Powerful CONCEAL & CARRY Wheel Gun
Here Ancestry Guns presents a C&R Colt “Trooper” Double Action Revolver, made in 1968 by the Colt Manufacturing Company in Hartford, Connecticut. The Colt Trooper is a medium frame, double-action revolver featuring a six-round cylinder, chambered in either .22 Long Rifle, .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire, .38 Special, and .357 Magnum caliber cartridges. Designed as a less expensive alternative to the upscale Colt .357 and the later Colt Python and Colt King Cobra, it was marketed to law enforcement agencies as well as civilians.
Introduced to the firearms market by the Colt Manufacturing Company in 1953, the Trooper and its high-end cousin, the .357 Magnum, were introduced with the intention of addressing the medium frame revolver market, as law enforcement officers had long complained about the weight of earlier models. The two guns were seen as ideal in size and handling characteristics for the .38 Special and its big brother the .357. Offered as an alternative and competitor to Smith & Wesson’s Model 28 "Highway Patrolman", the Colts were lighter and handier.
The overall condition is excellent. Original finish is preserved. Excellent action. Bright shiny bore with sharp rifling. Excellent grips. Markings are crisp. Visible number match.
