The '''Colt Detective Special''' is an American revolver introduced in 1927 as a snub-nosed variant of the [[Colt Police Positive|Colt Police Positive Special]], inspired by the made-to-order Fitz Special (1918 - 1944). The name "Detective Special" suggests intent to be a concealed weapon used by plainclothes police detectives. The Colt DS was the first "official" short-barreled (aka "snubnose") revolver produced with a modern swing-out frame, and one of the early widely-known guns of such type, after the solid-frame British [[Webley Bulldog|Bulldog]] and the top-break [[Smith & Wesson]] models. The Colt Detective Special went through several issues or series. The First Series was produced from 1927 until 1946, the Second from 1947 to 1972, and the Third from 1973 to 1986. After company reorganization, Detective Special production was restarted in 1993 (sometimes known as the "Fourth Series"). The new production run continued only until 1995, when Colt introduced the stainless-steel [[Colt SF-VI/DS-II]].

The Colt Detective Special is an American revolver introduced in 1927 as a snub-nosed variant of the Colt Police Positive Special, inspired by the made-to-order Fitz Special (1918 - 1944). The name "Detective Special" suggests intent to be a concealed weapon used by plainclothes police detectives. The Colt DS was the first "official" short-barreled (aka "snubnose") revolver produced with a modern swing-out frame, and one of the early widely-known guns of such type, after the solid-frame British Bulldog and top-break Smith & Wesson models. The Colt Detective Special went through several issues or series. The First Series was produced from 1927 until 1946, the Second from 1947 to 1972, and the Third from 1973 to 1986. After company reorganization, Detective Special production was restarted in 1993 (sometimes known as the "Fourth Series"). The new production run continued only until 1995, when Colt introduced the stainless-steel Colt SF-VI/DS-II.

In 1950, Colt introduced a lightweight alloy-framed variant of the DS, the Colt Cobra

The Colt Detective Special and variants can be seen in the following films, television series, video games, and anime used by the following actors:
