    got a Colt 1903 today...

    ..about 98% condition...didn't get a chance to fire it yet, but has a lot of charms to it...quality machined & fitted piece, has a meaty feel to it, like the grip safety(similar to it's big brother Colt)...thumb safety is small and flat, but sharply serrated part gets flipped off fairly easily...
