I bought a Colt New Service at the auction the other day( really legaly stole it)[:D] in 45 long colt,serial number 319xxx, dates it to 1923. My question is that someone shortened the barrel and put a ramp on it and now it looks like a Python on steriods[:0] Was this something that was done a lot back in the 30s,40s,50,???????[}:)][}:)] Any info on this pistol greatly appreciated[^][^][^]

This gun has Ivory grips, it has allot of engraving, it has no 29 on the trigger and cylinder.On the barrel it has [Patient Arms Paterson N J colts Pt].This gun looks to be silver plated or chrome plated.It has a little rod under the barrel that you pull down that moves a rod back into the cylinder.It is 5 shot 28 caliber.The gun is small and in excellent shape except for a small crack in one of the ivory pistol grips.

Still in the case and never fired.
He is asking 3900.00 for it, My question is he asking to much?
