    Need advice on an old Colt

    One of the local shops here has a Colt pocket positive revolver 3 1/2"bbl. It is stamped " .32 colt" on the barrel.

    Just curious.....

    I find that as I get a bit older and slower I carry a gun more often than I used to. In fact, as I type this, my .45colt Blackhawk is sitting crossdraw on my right hip (I'm a leftie). Wondering how many of you folks, as you sit reading this, have your SD (or any gun for that matter) on your...
