32 Colt Police Positive

[Lone Wolf McQuade]

A friend of mine was cleaning out the garage of their Summer home yesterday and found an old wooden box with what appears to be a 32 Colt Police Positive( at least we think it is after a bit of research on line ). Some surface rust, barrel rust, lots of rust around the firing pin under the hammer. Cylinder does not turn. Grips in very good shape, and a US stamped military flap holster which seems to be in very good condition. They suspect it was his Grand Dads firearm likely from WW1.

At this point they are wondering who in SE MA to take it too for an evaluation. Possible restoration in mind but not 100% sure of their plans at this point. I do know at this time it is NOT for sale.

Comments welcome.

Might be a bit of a hike, but I'd take it to Brian at B&K in Natick. He deals with a number of estate sales and such.

Great find, not sure if this is the correct gun but I thought I'd show an old ad. I love the price and why can't Wally World roll back the prices to those days.

Seeing as it originally sold for $35......I'll offer him say.......$50? Deal?

I'll go $55. And extra $10 for the holster.
