Colt Revolver Love…
Here are my Colt revolvers. Not "new" but, to me at least, MUCH more interesting than modern revolvers. Smile

1862 Colt Model 1860 Army (New York)


Colt Model 1849 w/ 4" barrel (Hartford)


Colt Model 1849 w/ 6" barrel (Hartford)


Colt Model 1849 w/ 5" barrel (Hartford)


1857 Martial Colt Model 1851 Navy (New York)


1860 Colt Model 1851 Navy (Hartford - shipped south prior to start of Civil War)

I've got a few Colts, including this factory 3" 80's vintage Python. While it's certainly the most valuable Colt revolver I own, I have a soft spot in my heart for my 4" barreled .22 LR and .38 Special Diamondback. These were my "grail guns" as a teenager and I dressed both of the smaller framed revolvers with Presentation Grade walnut stocks by Herrett's. The Python has some ebony stocks made by Fuzzy Farrant.

I truly enjoyed my Colt Python, 4", Blued. wish I still owned it today. Bought it in 1967, for $ 130.00. Also owned a Colt Gold Cup, Series 70, which I purchased for $ 160.00 in 1970.

Aah, those were the days!!

Presently own: Sig Sauer P220, P225, P226 Navy and Glock G21 SF.

Inherited this one. The grips are tulipwood Hogue's. I need to put some proper Colt grips on it. Serial # lookup shows it was made in ‘66.

Was digging through one of my holster trunks and came across a set of Hogue Tulipwood grips I had forgotten all about. Using girl math, a free set of D frame Hogue goodness. Slapped them on one of the Detective Specials and I really like them.

Gents,

Here is the new Colt King Cobra .22 I just purchased. It's going to be a very nice revolver.

I found this snubby Python in the classifieds here a long time ago - maybe 15 or so years. I add the Patrick Grashorn sheep bone grips

That's a looker, Blindref.

Mojojojo, lovely old capguns. Do you have an 1861 or a pocket police? Beautiful lines, like the 1860 army.
