This is a cool gun if y'all haven't noticed it already. It's also only the 4th Connecticut State Police gun I've ever come across.
Unfortunately it appears the original, cut down 5 shot POE magazine has been lost with time and replaced with a standard 5 shot factory mag. This is evident by the fact that all other Connecticut guns have the short POE magazine, but more so the magazine on this gun is poor fitting, has blue wear not consistent with the trigger plate/receiver, and is missing a side spring. It's also had the magazine indicator assembly installed which did not come with the POE magazine guns.
Still a unique and collectible gun.
