Colt Magnum Carry - .357 Magnum. Note the thicker top strap of the frame and the correspondingly larger front sight blade.

The SF-VI/DS-II is a modern version of the Colt Detective Special using a new stainless steel frame, with various simplifications meaning that it was easier to produce and didn't require hand fitting as was the case with the original Detective Special. When it was originally introduced it was named the SF-VI (Small Frame, 6 round cylinder) in order to stop confusion between it and the original Detective Special, which was still in production. After a year however the name was changed to the DS-II (Detective Special 2). A variant known as the Magnum Carry was also introduced in 1999 which featured a reinforced frame allowing it to fire .357 Magnum cartridges, however this was only produced for a year before all production of Colt revolvers (excluding the Colt Python) ceased in 2000.
