My Dad carried one of those in his pocket for 30 years. Every year he would shoot the bullets in the magazine, clean it and reload it. The funny thing is it worked every time.
I remember when I was a kid in Los Angles maybe in the late 60's I was with my Mom and Dad and we were walking from one store to the next in downtown. 2 guys came up and started saying stuff to my Mom my Dad pulled that little 25 out and they beat feet.
I've fired a lot of 25's but I've never fired one of the 1908 Colt's.
Nice old guns
I have one owned for at Least 45 yrs
I use to carry it then my wife did a short time
I know it's a 25 but better than nothing and takes up very little space
They use to be somewhat desirable pistol
Good luck Nunn
That is a neat old gun.
Colt used to have an ad (LONG ago) with a picture of a .25 Colt vest-pocket laying on top of a dead grizzly bear. They claimed the bear was killed by the .25. I don't know if the bear ate the hunter and choked to death on the .25 or what, but it made for an interesting picture.
Why did you cover up the serial number?

That question is answered in the Item description.
