Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Police Positive Special was the Police Positive with a lengthened frame and cylinder to allow using longer, more powerful cartridges like the .38 Special. The Police Positive Special was the model that Colt would use for all small frame revolvers up until the last of them were discontinued in 1995. The Police Positive Special and it's various other models were extremely popular with police departments wanting a smaller, lighter revolver that could shoot the powerful .38 Special cartridge. It was made in various forms from 1907 to 1995. There were more versions of pistols using the Police Positive Special frame than any other Colt double action revolver. The Police Positive Special, First Issue was available in bright blue and bright nickel. Grips were hard black rubber from 1907 to 1923 then checkered walnut with silver medallions after that. Barrel lengths were 4", 5", and 6". Calibers were .32-20, .32 New Police, .38 New Police (.38 S&W), and .38 Special. The Police Positive Special was manufactured from 1907 to 1927.
