That's better! loved the diminutive Colt's, especially the later New Frontier .22s with their color case hardened steel frames and adjustable rear sight.

I swear I have seen that picture before...or one just like it.
Nice shooter! The grips look a little off or is that just the way the light is hitting it?
Regardless, it looks like a fun gun.

I owned three Scout models. One of them Identical to yours in the box. I bought it back in earlier days from a coworker. We were chatting and he brought it up. Said he had it in his car and the line engineer offered him $75 for it if he brought it in. I asked to look at it ,and so next break we went to his car. It was NIB and I told him I would give him $100 for it. He sold it to me. I did make an enemy of the engineer , but I kept him from completely stealing it from a nice guy. Can't say I over paid either, but for the time it was closer to its value.
The two others I owned I quickly shot out. Way to quickly I might ad, and never bought another scout. (cylinder wobble) When the New Frontier and peacemakers came out with the case hardened steel frame I bought a Peacemaker, A great gun that I shot enough to wear out two scouts and it was still tight and looked near new when I sold it.

That's a nice Colt.
Mine is just the opposite, nickle finish, black mother of pearl grips.

dbluefish- really great, enjoy your find.
