It was made in 1936. Value would depend on factory originality and cosmetic condition. If the Colt is factory nickel it would be a big plus, value wise. Unfortunately many of the original blued models were nickel plated, after they left the factory. If you could post quality photos perhaps our members could help you value it.

A Model M (Colt's inside model designation) made in 1936 should have checkered wood stocks. The hard rubber stocks were discontinued in about 1926. If the stocks are not original, the finish may not be either. Pictures are needed for positive identification.
