I just received a pair of Colts from my dad .
This one I remember him buying. It was probably 1983. It was NIB and has been fired maybe 12 times. The nickel has a cloudy appearance that will not rub out with oil. I think I remember reading somewhere that nickel can get stained if using certain cleaners. Is this what happened? Is there any hope of getting it shiny again? It is a Police Positive marked as such on the barrel with .38 SPECIAL CTG. underneath. Serial is 06501R. I did not know Police Positives were made in the 80's. Is it odd?
I have no idea where he got this one from. I assume it is pretty old. Serial is 186730. Caliber is marked .32 Police CTG. Is that .32 S&W Long? Is it old?
Thank for any help given.
