Both grips show a circular Colt medallion with the colt horse logo and the Colt horse on the left side of the slide. The pistol shows wonderful condition with little to no wear across the piece. The pistol weighs 1lbs 8oz. Serial Number: 113816. This firearm qualifies as a Curio & Relic firearm, and requires FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.
