Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Official Police is a medium-frame, six-shot, double-action revolver, most commonly chambered in .38 Special, though it was also offered in calibers like .22 LR, .32-20, and .41 Long Colt. It typically came with barrel lengths ranging from 4 to 6 inches (with some shorter versions), and featured fixed iron sights and a swing-out cylinder. One of its key safety features was Colt’s “Positive Lock” system, which prevented the firing pin from striking the primer unless the trigger was deliberately pulled—an important advancement for safe carry at the time. The revolver was known for its solid steel construction, smooth trigger pull, and excellent accuracy, all of which contributed to its strong reputation among law enforcement.
Return Policy:
We gladly offer a 3-day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
