I'll join the club but only for a bit. Maybe the next owner will join. Don't put me on the club list. Photo is for display.
It is a Replica Arms El Paso Texas gun (made by ASM in 1963) 1848 Pocket squareback .31 5-shot 6" with load lever, date code XIX. It has the correct short frame, correct V-notch load aperture, and the correct short frame forcing cone, and the load lever/rammer pivot screw enters from the right.
Bought it at a GB auction years ago, paid too much for it, took it apart and cleaned up years worth of crud, and found the bolt/trigger spring has no tension, so it basically does not work, and replacement parts are not available to my knowledge. A good metal worker could most likely re-temper the spring. It is way too small for my long fingers so I have decided to give it away to one of two guys on this forum that are interested, and they know who they are. I am giving it away so as to pay it forward to guys (or gals) who have an interest in repairing such guns, and maybe they might do so in the future.
I am probably not the only guy who bought a pig in a poke.
I am an 1851 Navy .36 type guy, but I was a sucker for the squareback TG on this Pocket.
Sigh.
Good luck with the new club. I know there is a lot of interest in Colt Pockets.
