A firt day production US&S......

[John Holbrook]

This is a very interesting US&S. It is a first day production example, the 28Th pistol assembled. Note the smooth metal finish, and the three Rockwell punch hardness marks on the front of the slide. It has a Colt hammer and a Colt grip safety and barrel bushing, plus note the machining of the slide stop notch in the slide.... The trigger is not as bright blue as later examples, however it is the right type..

All in all a very interesting US&S!!! I bought this example about 14 years ago and paid $600.00 for if I remember!!!!!! I sold it to a good friend about 10 years ago, and he was kind enough to let me take these photos..

So enjoy!!!!
