I'm looking at a Colt Trooper Mk III, blued with a 4" barrel. The seller is on the opposite corner of the state from me, so it's not a simple jaunt to go get it. It was, at one time, issued to the Border Patrol. From the pictures, it looks pretty close to what my current 6" Mk III does, nice bluing, etc., except some genius rubbed off the Border Patrol stamp, leaving a bare steel area. The seller is saying that lockup is fine, the revolver works, etc. But the area where the stamp was needs bluing. He wants $650 for it. Which is $50 less than what I paid for my 6" Mk III. I'm thinking that's a bit much for this revolver in the condition that it's in. What do you think?
