From the Vault: Colt Police Positive Revolver
This video showcases the classic Colt Police Positive revolver, a compact and well-made handgun introduced in 1907. Host Steve Ostrem highlights its suitability for law enforcement and civilians due to its comfortable handling and mild recoil, particularly in its .38 Smith & Wesson (Colt New Police) chambering. The description clarifies the distinction between this cartridge and the .38 Special used in the later Police Positive Special model. Ostrem also explains the meaning behind the "Positive" in the name and suggests the Police Positive is an undervalued collector's item.
