Well, you may be a man. You may be a leprechaun. Only one thing’s for sure… you’re in the wrong basement.
1917 production 1908 Vest Pocket.
1926 production Officers Model Target (this one needed and received a refinish, it had a few deep pits that would not stop rusting).
Late 60s factory short action Officers Model Match.
Late 60s Trooper, pre-MK III.

A couple of my Colts:
Here are a few more....
Colt Army Special, 1919
Single Action Army, 1977
Police Positive, 60s
Officers Model Match, 60s
1911, 1917
We may lose and we may win, but we will never be here again.......
And a few more...
I was bothered by my only Officers Model Target being a refinished example. Picked up another.
It’s a year younger than the refinished one, meaning it is a Third Issue rather than a Second. It definitely spent some time in a holster during the past century, but there is no pitting.

Very nice!
How much do you want for the old nasty rusty refinished one?

― Theodore Roosevelt
I wish she was "nasty," because then I might be tempted! That's my small game season woods-walking revolver. .38 wadcutters, a nice front bead sight, and a great SA trigger... beats toting a rifle or shotgun, especially early in the season when you can't see far anyways.Very nice!

I take this out about once a year and put 25 rounds of .38 Auto popcorn fart loads through it. The tiny sights make it a challenge and the slide cycles so slow its quite mesmerizing. There is a reflection on the pistol from the tree above.
