Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Colt's of Hartford. Conn., is among the world's leading suppliers of .25 ACP pocket automatic pistols.Their first pistol of this type was developed by John M. Browning, the famous U.S. arms designer, and introduced in 1908. Approximately 500,000 of this excellent blowback-operated arm were produced.

This pistol was discontinued in 1946. and Colt's did not re-enter the .25 ACP pocket pistol field until 1958 when they introduced the Junior Colt. This was produced for Colt's by Unceta & Co. in Spain.

The 1968 Gun control Act stopped importation of the Junior Colt, and this Spanish made pistol was replaced by a .25 ACP pocket automatic introduced in 1970. Called the Colt Automatic Caliber .25, the new blowback-operated pistol was produced by another U.S. firm. It weighs only 121/2 ozs., measures 4-7/16" in overall length, and has a six-round detachable magazine. Its low compact sights are integral with the slide. Also integral with the slide is a serrated rib which extends between the sights.

A mechanical thumb safety on the left side of the frame also serves as a slide hold-open device. Other safety features are an exposed hammer with rounded spur and a magazine safety which prevents firing when the magazine is removed. The exposed hammer makes it possible to tell at a glance whether or not the pistol is cocked.

Although the hammer has a half-cock notch, a moderate pull on the trigger when the safety is disengaged will cause the hammer to drop. The firing pin is independent, but not of rebounding type. With the hammer fully down, it contacts the firing pin which then extends beyond the breech face. It is therefore unsafe to carry the pistol with the chamber loaded and the hammer resting on the firing pin.

The pistol is attractive. Most metal parts have a highly-polished blue finish which contrasts pleasingly with the checkered walnut grips. Inlaid in each grip is a circular plated medallion bearing the Colt trademark.
