Is 1948 modern?
Traded for this last year. My first Colt double-action. My understanding is that before the Python this was Colt's top of the line revolver.

Adjustable front sight.
Adjustable rear sight.

Checkering on the trigger!

Very nice, Dave!
I'd be proud to own that.

I had a Heavy Barrel Officers Model made in 1935 with original Roper grips but it got stolen. It was the most accurate revolver I've ever owned. Yours is a lot nicer.

This one's a Heavy Barrel. In doing a little research I haven't seen one marked quite like this. Most have the "HEAVY BARREL" line immediately below the OM line, not separated like this.

I haven't seen one like that either. I found a not so good pic of mine. It had King sights front and rear with a ramped front. The ejector rod knob is different too. The grips are period Roper but not original to the gun.

Nice Colt! I have a 1944 Official Police.
