DT#'s and Open Range guns
« on: December 30, 2016, 09:16:14 AM »
Are all the DT serial numbered guns USA made?

What about the "Open Range" guns? I believe these are USFA's that Turnbull sold directly to the public, correct? Are they all USA made?

I can't speak to all the DT guns, but the pair that I bought exhibit all of the US produced characteristics, at least as far as I can tell. Got them in 2012(?) if I remember right. Consecutive serial numbered, 7 1/2" 44 WCF black powder framed. I remember asking for the BP frame, they threw in the consecutive numbers just cause they had 'em on hand. Fantastic pair of handguns.

Mine is one of the first run of USAF guns I think he did and it has all the characteristics of an all USA parts gun. It is a 4 3/4" 45 Colt and one of my favorite of my USFA revolvers. I had custom Elk antler grips made for it that fit perfectly.
A man's true measure is found not in what he says but in what he does.

 I have read about the features of USA made parts. I'm not sure there is a definitive answer but all the DT numbered guns I have seen seem to be USA made too. I am just learning from pics I can see at auction sites, etc. Thanks for the replies.
