I just inherited a Lightweight Commander in .38 Super. Don’t think it’d ever been fired. Ran 50 rounds of some stuff I got from Ammoman through it. Had a couple hiccups the first 3 magazines but after that it ran smooth as silk.

I did get 2 more mags from MecGar. Again, no issues.

Any idea of it’s date of manufacture? At some point Colt switched from headspacing on the case mouth like the .45 and tried headspacing off the dinky rim. That caused accuracy problems. As far as feeding, it can be a crapshoot sometimes. Glad you got a good one. How do you like the cartridge?
