I just picked up a new revolver and I'm very intrigued by its potential history. It's a Colt Police Positive Special in .38 Special. Serial number is 34-2678. I believe this was a police department presentation weapon, because "IPD No.21" is stamped on the bottom of the butt.
I don't believe this weapon has ever been fired. The bore is like new.
The weapon is nickel plated and I believe it is a very high quality refinish job. I suspect that a police department had some new quality weapons and had a batch nickel plated for presentation purposes.
I'd greatly appreciate any information you could provide for me.
