I purchased a Colt Trooper 357 at my LGS today. The bluing on the right side is almost perfect, but on the left about 80%. The lockup is rock solid and the grips are worn, but no cracks. Thanks to the link provided by Radacast in the sticky, the S/N puts it at 1967. I paid $380 out the door. This is my first Colt, so I thought I'd ask if I did ok? I wasn't looking for a Colt, but when I tested the lock up and the trigger, I couldn't say no.
