Colt Trooper Mk III

[mustang69 505]

So here's another great find at the LGS.  I was sitting in the store with the owner just chatting and I find one I couldn't live without - Colt Trooper Mk III from the mid '70's.  Nice shape, excellent stock and no holster wear, so probably a safe queen.  A small spot of rust and a filthy, but everything cleaned up nicely.

Not a snake gun but I'm also not worried about shooting it.  Has a nice balance to it.  I just need to get used to the cylinder rotating backwards.

The best part?  $300 out the door...

That's a bargain for that gun. I'm not a big Colt fan but would have bought that.

Just noticed the adjustable rear sight.  That would make it a Trooper Mk III.  The Lawman was fixed sight.

Thanks.  You're right, I knew it was a Trooper but for some reason had Lawman on the brain.  Edited...

I’m all ho-hum until you mentioned that price. 

That’s a steal!

Nice.  I have a Peacekeeper (Parked Trooper Mk V) - love it.

$300?????  Makin me cry..."stole" doesn't begin to describe the deal you got!

I have a Peacekeeper too (like Nick's) and a .22 Trooper Mk III

Would LOVE to have a Trooper Mk III 357.

It was a shop local to me in NH so I’d rather not post it on a NJ forum.  I encourage to shop your local dealer.  Become a regular and deals like this will show up.  Just my $.02.
