Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless .32 ACP Model M, Type III: This gun was manufactured in 1923. It holds 9 rounds, 8 in the magazine plus 1 in the chamber. The .32 ACP round is also known as the 7.65 mm.

Information:

The Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless .32 caliber (or 7.65 mm) was manufactured by Colt in Hartford, Ct from 1903 until 1945. The price of these guns varies depending on condition, features and history with provenance. This gun was one of the last issued with checkered hard rubber grips with the "Rampant Colt" molded into them. In 1924 the grips were changed to checkered walnut with the Colt medallions. Note: ACP is the acronym for Automatic Colt Pistol.

The name "Pocket Hammerless" is misleading in that the gun is not truly hammerless, the John Browning design features a concealed hammer. Humphrey Bogart used a similar gun in "Casa Blanca".
