Do you think it's in response to an aggressive and oppressive federal government, or in reaction to recent killings that involved unregulated/unregistered assault rifles and semi-auto pistols?

1 AnswerCurrent Events8 years agoDid Colt make .38 revolvers for civilians as well as for police in the '70s?
About 20 years ago, I bought one in fair-good condition. It had obviously been in service for a long time, but it's a smooth, nice-looking long-barrelled pistol. If they were manufactured only for Police service, then I may have a gun stolen from a police officer and I'll need to turn it in to the local police. Thanks for any knowledge/thoughts.
