*SOLD* 1982 Colt Trooper MK V .357 Mag Blue 8" *RARE AND DESIRABLE MKV MODEL*
Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Trooper MK V stands as a refined evolution of the company's iconic revolver line. Finished in a sleek, deep blue, the surface gleams with a professional yet timeless finish. The 8-inch barrel is perfectly proportioned, lending the revolver both balance and a purposeful stance, ideal for target shooting or personal defense. The red ramp front sight with a white outline offers quick target acquisition, while the adjustable rear sight gives shooters the flexibility to make precise adjustments for different ranges. The grips are a showpiece in themselves, featuring checkered walnut wood that provides a firm, tactile hold. Inlaid gold Colt medallions on either side stand out against the rich wood grain, elevating the revolver's overall aesthetic appeal. These finely crafted grips complement the streamlined, rounded grip frame—a notable upgrade from the previous Mark III series, enhancing both comfort and control. Built on Colt's upgraded "V" frame, the MK V's internals have been designed for smoother, more consistent performance. The double-action/single-action mechanism functions flawlessly, delivering a smooth, crisp trigger pull, thanks to Colt’s reworked mainspring and shortened action. The revolver's overall form is clean and polished, with the Python-like ribbed barrel venting adding a touch of performance-oriented flair. This is the premium version of the Mark V series, and every detail speaks to Colt's commitment to quality craftsmanship.
