Some of you naughty people on this site were talking a couple few months back about how awesome the old Colt revolvers are and how great their triggers are and so on and so forth. I got to thinkin' about it and realized I DIDN'T HAVE A COLT REVOLVER, much less an antique, so I started looking around on Gunbroker. It took a while, and I was hoping to pay closer to $200, but splurged and paid $300 for this one. It locks up tight, and the rifling looks a little bit worn but still good.
It will be a week or two before I can go shoot it. I am looking forward to it. My "pre Model 10" and "Hand Ejector" are from 1915/1916, so it can keep them company. It is less worn than either of them and seems to have a better trigger.
Does anyone know if wooden grips would have been an option when it was new?
