A Colt Trooper MK III revolver made in 1980, serial Y14263, chambered in .22 Magnum with a 4-inch barrel. Trooper MK IIIs in this rimfire magnum chambering are rare. The blued finish and the wood grips are both excellent, and the overall condition is excellent as well.

A 4-inch .22 Magnum revolver is a range and small-target piece rather than a defensive gun, and this one's condition points toward Colt collectors in New Mexico who want a scarce chambering with its finish intact. Handguns leave the dealer only after the federal NICS check and, for most buyers, the state's seven-calendar-day wait; FFL holders, immediate family transfers and New Mexico concealed handgun licensees are exempt from that wait. The state keeps no registry and requires no purchase permit, and dealer handgun sales start at age 21.
