The Colt Special was an inexpensive ($ .98) 50 shot repeater that was introduced in 1957. This is one of the smaller guns, but still had the nice grips. Some were made in chrome and there were a few that were blued. They even came with wooden grips! Sometimes I think whomever was putting the guns together or selling them got bored and started something different—like blueing the guns, etc. Surprisingly enough, this is the same year that the famous Stallion 45 MK-II was introduced. And there sure is a lot of difference in value between the two guns. However, when you find one of these that is in pristine shape, it still isn't cheap.

Personally I can never tell what's the difference between a blued version and a black version. But here's one with the white grips from our friend Chuck Quinn.

A full dozen in the box like this is about as scarce as hen's teeth. I would love to own a set like this!
