Back to the beginning
ManyIrons, in the first post of this thread you referenced a "SUPERTUNED Colt navies". What is that? Is this something the smith does? If so, what does he do and does he sell them?
Personally, I like the '51 Colt Navies better than anything. There's just something about the way they feel, and point, in the hand. They have that "old time" look with the octagonal barrel and hinged loading lever, not to mention the wedge to hold the barrel on. Anyone care to guess how old that method is? And yet for 1851 they were the most modern, most advanced, firearm known. The American hit of the great London World's Fair of 1851! So I am curious as to what he does to supertune them, and what accuracy improvements he gains.
