I just posted this early today, but since I am my most favorite subject, and you asked what my most recent purchase was....I bought this yesterday
I don't know what marred the slide on the right side, but I'll probably be sending the slide to Colt for a refinish. Frame is about 95% as good as brand new, I assume the previous owner left it sitting on it's right side in a sock drawer or something for a few years. Barrel bore looks brand new but shows wear-in from the collet-type barrel bushing it used to have. I think that a scenario of an older gentleman who liked to shoot but was somewhat neglectful of his pistols could be likely as the previous owner. The pistol was as filthy as I'd ever like to see! Obviously I'd cleaned it for the photos
