matched pair of Colt SAA's in Nickel and 357 ,in gunfighter bbl length 4.75" !! Perfect for a Colt collector or cowboy shooter, Purchased new and function fired only (25 rds apiece). Then  cleaned oiled and put away. No cylinder scoring as they time perfectly and minimal handling marks.These are a clean Minty pair of Colt's. Price is for the pair. They are NOT consecutive but close. These are 2008 manufacture date with Gen 2 style removable cylinder bushings. Time is running out on these original Colt's so get them while you can. I purchased these off a pard here a few months back but need to sell  Asking much less than I paid.... $4700 

 

The angle, and it's closer.

For some reason one of the 28's looks longer in a couple pics.  Maybe the angle.

20, 22, and 2 28's

Excellent!  The bottom one looks a little longer, what are the barrel lengths?

Mr King that is a Fine looking lineup!!!!  Lots of fun and enjoyment there!!!

Use a wooden mallet or a piece of hardwood and tap on the hinge bolt of the handles.

The sprue-plate hinge bolt must be lubed VERY sparingly to avoid lube seeping into the mold cavity and causing wrinkled bullets.  I prefer to run my molds dry.

Forgive my ignorance, but what is wrong with the hammer?  I wasn't tapping hard enough to mar anything, it was about as hard as wrapping your knuckles on a table, it was a very light (cheap) framing hammer.  I assume though that I was doing something obviously stupid?  I did not have a chunk of wood handy less than about a foot long chunk of 2x4, seemed ungainly so I just grabbed the hammer.  Is it the force that is the issue or just the metal on metal?  I only did a hundred or two drops at most.

Very nice.

Quote from: River City John on Yesterday at 06:37:17 PMI just finished casting for the season. I never plan on saving any of the early casts as it takes several pours to get the mold up to heat. So into the pot they go to be melted down for the next pour.
Did you smoke the inside of your mold before beginning casting? It makes the bullets drop out with just a tap.

If you have an old long handled spoon you can insulate the handle, or set it in a wood handle, and use it as a scoop to drag the dross off the top. I use a pea-sized pellet of wax to flux, then clear the dross off the top of the lead pool.

I did not smoke it initially, though I did make a point of holding it in the smoke cloud from the burning paraffin, in either case though the bullets either just dropped right out or came out with a tap or two with a hammer on the mold.
