COLT DETECTIVE SPECIAL PRE-WAR (FIRST ISSUE) For Sale

$900.00

The Colt Detective Special First Issue, produced from 1927 to 1946, exemplifies Colt’s early 20th-century revolver craftsmanship. Chambered for .38 Special ammunition, it features a compact 2-inch barrel, ideal for concealed carry and personal protection. Its deep blue finish enhances both aesthetics and rust resistance. Initially sporting square butt grips until 1932, the design switched to ergonomically superior round butt grips in 1933, made from durable, high-quality wood. The last patent date stamped on the barrel is October 5, 1926, confirming its pre-war era production. This combination of features not only makes the Colt Detective Special First Issue a reliable defensive weapon but also a highly prized collector’s item, representing Colt’s historical and innovative legacy.
