    New Colt owner

    Hello, I recently went from not owning any Colts to owning two in a matter of 2 weeks. My first purchase was a Police Positive Special with it's original box, in almost unfired condition. Manufacting date of 1967 or so.

    My second purchase was a Model 1909. This revolver was manufactured in 1911. Great bore and lock up. Has all the Government marking and lanyard ring. Finish is about what is expected with a 100 year old revolver.

    So, I joined your group to educate myself in these fine handguns.
