    Colt 22 OMM from 1963

    Picked this up today. Nice having a 22 with Python lock work and trigger. Great
    2 1/2# SA pull. How about those gorgeous original grips? If you’ve seen the
    price on ORIGINAL Python grips these days you’ll understand.

      Very nice. Any plans on shooting it?

        I'm very jealous right now.

        Great Score! I've been looking for a OMM for a while. I foolishly passed on one in 38 a couple of years ago, but it was a pale comparison to the one you hold. That is amazing condition!

          Little story I’ll pass on. This gun was on Gunbroker and I realized the
          seller lived in Lake Forest,I’ve just move from Ventura Cty down to
          Laguna area. After the auction we did a PPT,no shipping no sales tax. First
          time this ever happened to me on GB.Seller was not original owner but
          his Father was. Looks like Dad never really took it shooting. I’m going
          to shoot this because they are a great accurate 22 revolver and I’m
          going to leave a timing mark on the cylinder,otherwise it will be just
          about perfectly clean.

                    Muy bonita.
                    Was the seller the original owner?
                    Looks as if it is a safe queen. Range trip planned?

                      Very sweet little Colt -

                      Nice one - the colt action from '66 is very nice, I have. diamondback from around that date - absolutely outstanding.

                          I have a similar one but pre war and not nearly as nice. They had a slight different name like police positive target. My local Gun shop had a case full of colt police positive 38’s with combat sights and the adjustable sights jumped out at me. Price was right. Your bluing is amazing. Mine has seen some days in a holster but the action is good.

                          Nice piece.
