Colt’s Widely Produced Police Revolver Design

Here Ancestry Guns presents a C&R Colt Police Positive Target Revolver, made in 1928 by the Colt Manufacturing Company in Hartford, Connecticut. This Colt Police Positive is a small-frame, double-action revolver featuring a six-round cylinder, originally chambered for either .32 or .38 caliber. It was also later offered as a target revolver chambered in .22 caliber cartridges, as is this example. Originally designed primarily for sale to federal, state, or local law enforcement agencies, the Police Positive was introduced into the overall firearms market by Colt's Manufacturing Company in 1905. The Colt Police Positive was an improvement of Colt's earlier “New Police” revolver, upgraded with an internal hammer block safety.

The Police Positive was very successful venture for Colt. Along with the Colt Official Police, it dominated the law enforcement firearms market in the early 1900s. The Positive was itself incrementally modified in 1908, forming the basis for Colt's Police Positive Special model. The Colt Police Positive Special was a slight improvement of Colt's earlier Police Positive model with the only differences being a slightly lengthened cylinder and elongated and strengthened frame to allow the chambering of the longer, more powerful .32-20 Winchester Center Fire and .38 Special cartridges.

The overall condition is very fine. Original finish is preserved. Some holster wear is present on each side of the barrel. The action is excellent. Bright, shiny bore with crisp rifling. Both grips are good with average handling wear and a few scratches on each butt. Markings are sharp. Visible numbers match. Replaced front sight blade.
