Colt question
I have a Colt .38 Army Special Revolver that I got from my great uncle when he passed recently. I cannot find anything similar to it. The Serial number lists it to be made in 1911. It has a pearl handle and is very ornately engraved. Any info would be appreciated...

I picked up a Colt Detective Special at the Portland Or. Gun show last weekend, serial # 476054. It doesn't have a barrel shroud, has wood grips that are flat on the bottom with the edges beveled. Can some one give me a date of manufacture. It's about an 80-85% gun, and according to the 29th Blue Book of Gun Values it's worth $425-$500 if it's a first issue. Any assistance and information is appreciated. Thanks for looking.

Howdy FatStrat,
I'd shoot Colt a call. They have smithed a couple barrels for me in the past. Hopefully they still do!
Shoot Straight,

Looks like these folks do that on Colt's for around $90 and they are in Nebraska-closer than the Colt factory at least[:D]
