[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 3973508, member: 45773"] That's unfortunate because that's a nice 1972-made Colt. If you're lucky the internals of the gun haven't been messed up by bubba-smithing. I don't know how much it would be to fill those holes, checker the front strap and refinish the gun (I'd definitely do that as opposed to buying a new slide). I'd say if it could be done for $400-ish, it might be worth it. As it sits, assuming the internals haven't been screwed up, too, I'd pay about $250 for it. It's just hard to say what else might be wrong with it. Aside from the grips the external parts look correct. I don't know if it's worth more than that or not...that's just what I'd pay. Because by the time the restoration work was done I'd likely be into it for what I'd have into a nice Series 70 that wasn't messed up. [/QUOTE]
