I brought one in the late 1960's and I have use it a lot and looks just as good as yours. It is a great 38 colt. Go out and shoot it. That is why it was made. do not worry it will look just as good like new, believe me. Mine does...Guns are to be used and not put in a show case, useless you retire them...

Hombre, yo tengo un Colt, producido entre 1992 y 1995. Calibre 38 Spl. Cañon de 2" Modelo Detective Special, con Cachas Anatomicas Pachmayr de factory y no lo cambio por nada, no me ha fallado jamás, 6 tiros para protegerte. En 1986, enfrentando cifras de ventas estancadas y un aumento de los costos de producción y mano de obra, Colt suspendió la producción del Detective Special. Colt se acogió a la protección por quiebra en 1992. Después de la reorganización, la empresa reinició la producción del Detective Special en 1992. El Detective Special posterior a 1991 se denomina a veces la Cuarta Serie y presenta empuñaduras envolventes "compuestas" (goma) con un medallón de oro. Solo se ofreció un barril de dos pulgadas, en acabado azul o cromado duro. La nueva producción continuó solo hasta 1995, cuando Colt presentó su SF-VI de acero inoxidable como reemplazo del Detective Special. Saludos desde Buenos Aires Argentina.

No lo cambias pero lo vendes? 😅

You got some beautiful guns man! Love it. Just picked up a very early Colt Agent with exposed rod. I got a quick video of it. My first Colt and I LOVE it.

[@coltthank2654]

Too beautiful for every day carry.

[@anthonyguidas2012]

That gun is beautiful, and those grips look incredible, very nice 👍

[@jn7420]

Beautiful! I have one made in 1934, my carry gun.

[@johngonzalez5593]

It's a beautiful gun.

[@richardkluesek4301]

Guns of Charley's Angels, Barney Miller, and Kojak. Awesome. Still relevant for their purpose.

Wowww! So beautiful! Mint!

[@giuseppecangiamilla8138]

I love this revolver!!!

[@erictalkington5674]

I got a couple guns where the grips are not the same shade. One of them just came that way. You can see that one is dark and the front part of the other is and the back half of it is really light and the difference follows one of the woodgrain lines. Drives me nuts.

[@bobpriddy5196]

Drives you nuts? Get a grip dude. It’ll be okay.

[@erictalkington5674]

I have a couple Smiths where one grip is darker than the other. The gun and grips are in very good shape, but they just came that way. I wish they would have taken the time to match them up better and put light ones with light ones and darker ones with darker ones. It drives me nuts. My Pre-Model 10 snub has grips like that. Nice collection.

[@Aprenticefalconer]

Could be from carrying it. The grip that touches you can absorb sweat and oil and darken over time

[@pinterestwatcher6904]

@6:00 Double action on the first shot, single action on the preceding ones and it works without ammo, it is the only revolver Colt ever made with this awesome mod! LOL

[@dmitrylikhachev6748]

Perfect!!

[@bobpriddy5196]

The shrouded ejector didn’t come along til 1973

I own the last generation, a colt detective special 38, i think is 93 model.

[@cacocarrillo5895]

I have just the same exactly gun how can i find out when it was made.?

[@Dragonfire1911]

Is this the smallest six shot .38 revolver ?

DONDE PUEDO COMPRAR UN REVOLVER DE ESE MODELO,COL

[@erictalkington5674]

Very nice gun. I'm pretty sure it's a 3rd issue. That looks gorgeous. I want one with the magna style grips from the second issue Detective Special. I've seen pictures of some with those stocks and they look really cool with those.

[@pinterestwatcher6904]

He states that in the video, watch it in full, or pay attention!

@@pinterestwatcher6904 piss off ya prick. Why the need to just be an asshole for no fucking reason?

[@erictalkington5674]

@@pinterestwatcher6904 by the way dip shit, at 5:43 he says it's a 3rd issue, but at the bottom he typed in that it is actually a 4th issue. Soooo, watch it in full or pay attention!

[@joebauers3746]

Why does this say Colt Detective Special from 1927 to 1946 then you display a 4th gen??? VERY confused.

[@timscarborough7575]

I do know th generation, but that gun not what he say.

[@winstonchurchill3597]

The title to this video is misleading.

[@Detman329]

If it doesn’t say plus P on the gun somewhere it can’t handle +P ammo.

[@JohnSmith-zx1bg]

CHILL OUT with the dry firing. Good Lord bro you need to learn to take care of these old revolvers.

[@gillyt629]

I’m not actually dry firing. I am staging. Thank you.

[@JohnSmith-zx1bg]

@@gillyt629 That can't be good for it can it? Also at the end of your video you said yours was a square butt. However the square butts were manufactured ftom 1927-1932.
