Title: Colt's of all sorts...
Post by: shrapnel on May 03, 2010, 11:15:04 PM

I have loved Colt's and Winchesters since I was a kid. I was always wanting to get a real Colt from the time I first handled a SAA in 1964. I had all the Shootin' Shell and Fanner 50 guns as a kid and finally after years of waiting, got one, then two then...

I now have quite a few, here are some originals. Lightnings in first models in 38-40 and 44-40. A Colt model 1878 double barrelled shotgun, and 3 of my 1st generation Colt's, in 38-40 with buffalo bone grips;  45 Colt with one piece rosewood grips; and 44-40 with ivory grips. I keep waiting for the SASS to start a category of just Colt's.

Nice collection of firearms you have. I sure would enjoy hearing more about the shotgun.
