So I recently asked about the value of a Colt Cobra 1st generation that I found at a pawnshop. Turns out I was totally wrong.
It's actually a Colt Police Positive 38, maybe 32 not too sure really. It looks like a 1st generation Colt Cobra. I've seen CPP but they are all 3" or more. This one seems to be a snub nose. It has been reblued and has pearl (or pearl like) grips. I started to scratch the pearl with my teeth, but people started looking at me funny, so i decided to wait and see if they are real pearls in the privacy of my home once i finish paying on it.
As for stampings, the reblue job seemed to erased the Colt horse logo, and you can only read PoliceOsitive (words sharing the P) and the buttstock has K.P.D. No.40 . The markings in the butstock do not seem to be homemade.
As for the serial number I can't seem to locate my recipt, but I do recall seing a big "A" on the frame.
Any idea on value? Is it worth collecting? Has 30 day warranty so i can always return or trade
