I got a Colt Diamondback from a widow and paid her $375 for it because it had surface rust and the hand was chipped. It is a 4" 38special in satin nickel. I didn't think they were ever made in a matte nickel finish...looks like a French Gray finish. The guy who this belonged to didn't stike me as someone who would special order a gun from the factory or care enough to get a gun refinshed. Also after a judicious amount of kroil and elbow grease the surface rust came off and under all the years of crud the gun is in excellent+ condition. Doesn't looked refinish as the markings are all deep and crisp. The grips look correct but there are no medalions in them. It was made in 1970. What do I have?
