Howdy everyone,
My uncle passed away and left me this handgun. Since this is my very first revolver, my knowledge is quite limited and would appreciate your help/point-of-view.
Here are some facts:
My questions:
Thank you.
My uncle passed away and left me this handgun. Since this is my very first revolver, my knowledge is quite limited and would appreciate your help/point-of-view.
Here are some facts:
- Brand: Colt.
- Model: Colt .38 Army Special.
- Year: 1923.
My questions:
- Given the current (poor) state of the gun, is it advisable (due to any possible depreciation) to re-blue it? (see images).
- Several .38 S&W-UMC rounds were in my uncle's closet. Was this specific round made for this revolver? (see images).
- Can I use current .38 Special rounds on this revolver?
Thank you.
