I have a 1st year production Pre-Detective Special that I believe I am going to put up for auction. Picture attached. Does anyone know what they are going for currently? Comes with factory letter.
Thanks,
Mike
Sorry for the late reply guys. The serial number is 359348, I have attached a clearer picture showing the "38 Special" barrel markings. I have a factory letter from Colt somewhere but it has been misplaced during our move. It will turn up shortly. I believe it was manufactured in 1928.
You are right, I uploaded an old picture by mistake in my old post. That was another DS that I had a few years ago and I pulled the wrong picture from my files. I apologize for the confusion.
I probably will offer it for sale here. I am new to selling guns, so I am still working on my photography.
I have some other interesting Colts I will be selling, such as a New Service 44 Special from 1916, assorted Cobras and DS models. Here are some more pics I have of the Pre-DS.
I would love them to go to a collector who appreciates them. What is the best way to list them on this forum? I don't see anything on the classifieds section of the forum. Just list them here? Thanks for the advice.
Mike
