Title: COLT 32cal
Post by: 1shot on January 17, 2011, 06:21:58 PM: I have a Colt 1903 32cal . Does anyone know what it would be worth? Its not in bad condition, it still shows all the info on the side of the gun, serial number, and it says Dec 22nd 1903 Hartford CT. USA

They're not highly sought after.

Yeah when the military stuff is in thick it's more like 9-10 cents a whack.
