What is a 32 colt revolver police positive with 6 inch barrel patented Aug 5 1884 June 5 1900 July 4 1905?
I think that you mean "pistol" instead of "positive". I have one of these and it is indeed a pistol. Was that the question? "Police Positive" was a Colt trade name. If the revolver has a square grip it is probably the model known as the "new police" and if it has a rounded grip it is probably the model known as the civilian "new pocket". It's hard to believe but the little dinky .32 revolvers were the standard Police issue around the turn of the 20th century.

Either the Beretta M9 or the Desert Eagle. Most likely the M9. It depends on what you mean. If you mean America's military, the primary handgun is the Beretta M9, but if you mean in general, the Glock is the most common. About 65% of police departments in the U.S. use Glock, and probably about that same amount in competitive practical shooting.
