The Colt Trooper MK III is one of the finest double-action revolvers Colt ever produced, combining the company's legendary revolver craftsmanship with a stronger and more modern action system than earlier Trooper models. Chambered in .22 Long Rifle and fitted with a 6-inch target barrel, this example was built for shooters who demanded precision and refinement. The scarce rimfire configuration has become increasingly sought after by collectors due to its limited production and outstanding shootability.

This revolver is purpose-built for accuracy. The heavy 6-inch barrel provides excellent balance and a long sight radius, while the fully adjustable target rear sight allows precise zeroing for a wide variety of ammunition. The smooth double-action pull and crisp single-action break make it equally at home on the target line or in a serious rimfire collection.

The Trooper MK III features Colt's robust transfer-bar ignition system and redesigned lockwork, giving it a reputation for durability while retaining the classic Colt feel. Factory target stocks with gold Colt medallions provide a comfortable and secure grip. The overall fit and finish demonstrate the level of polishing and craftsmanship that made Colt revolvers famous worldwide.

As a .22 LR revolver, this model offers exceptionally low recoil, economical shooting, and outstanding mechanical reliability. The six-shot cylinder and precision-machined action make it ideal for training, recreational target shooting, small game use, and serious rimfire competition. Few revolvers combine elegance, practicality, and accuracy as effectively as the Trooper MK III.

Collector interest in Colt double-action revolvers has continued to grow, and original Trooper MK III rimfire models have become increasingly difficult to locate, especially with their factory box and paperwork. The matching box end label and included documentation add significant collector appeal. For Colt enthusiasts, revolver collectors, and target shooters alike, this is an exceptionally desirable example of one of Hartford's classic wheelguns.
