Sales Description
Colt Official Police double-action revolver chambered in .22 Long Rifle. Serial number 10233. Manufactured just before World War II, this wheel gun represents a unique segment of Colt's law enforcement legacy. Built on the medium-heavy "E" frame—the exact same frame used for the standard .38 Special duty revolvers—the .22 LR variant was specifically designed to allow police departments and civilian shooters to practice their marksmanship with highly affordable rimfire ammunition while maintaining the exact weight, balance, and trigger pull of their service weapons.

Featuring a 6-inch barrel, this configuration maximizes sight radius for excellent target accuracy. Condition is Good to Very Good. This classic revolver remains mechanically solid, exhibiting only small, honest blemishes to the factory bluing and grips consistent with standard holster carry and range use during its nearly 90-year lifespan. It serves as both a fantastic vintage target shooter and an excellent addition to any dedicated Colt collection.
