If I was interested I'd email him and ask for lots of clear photographs.
So what does everyone think of this Colt? To me the pictures are not good enough to bid more than re-blue money! Just can't tell what the gun is or isn't!

Blueing does look a little murky and dark to me also...looks 'dark grey' in a way.
Magazine likewise ( not a 'Two Tone', not a clear kind of 1932 sort of darker but still Blue 'Blue' ).
So...hmmmm...
Might be a 1960s Colt re-Blue or something.
1932 should still be a whole bunch of "Ohhh! what nice Blue!" with no pause or doubt or hard squinting.
Even if it is the Camera/lighting, the Magazine is still wrong...which makes one wonder how come the original Magazine is not present or was Cherry Picked? But, no big deal on that.
