Item Name: Item Gone: FS/FT Colt detective special series III. W/ammo and holster
Location: Avondale estates
Zip Code: 30002
Item is for: Sale or Trade
Sale Price: was 650, would like 550, But firm at 500.
Trade Value or Items Looking For: Smith CSX
Caliber: 38
Willing to Ship: No
Bill of Sale Required?: Yes
Bill of Sale Info: Only need a BOS if you do not have a GWL.
Item Description: I have always love these since seeing them an old television and movies, had a chance to get this particular one from another member and snatched it up. Sadly it was a case of never meet your heroes, and while the gun itself shoots wonderfully because of my hands I cannot shoot it consistently as my hand is quite large even with the factory larger grips. I have put around 70 rounds through it with only about 10 of those being plus P, according to my research this model is rated for around 3000 rounds of plus P before needing to be inspected by colt. If I had to guess looking at the turning circle on the cylinder it’s probably had 2 to 300 rounds put through it in its entire life. I love it to death but I’m not at the point where I can keep things that I cannot immediately pick up and shoot. Side plate has had all the bluing removed by a PO, he told me it had a scratch and that he polished it back to bare metal, if it weren't for that I would consider it a 9/10 condition, as it sits I would say it's a 7/10. Ammo is a mix of new and old that I have collected, holster is an in waistband/in the pocket manufactured by sticky. Open to a few particular trades that will be mentioned above, but would prefer to outright sell.
