i love my 1991A1 in 45cal

1991A1 among others. :-D

Currently only two:

Colt New Frontier, .45 Colt, 7 1/2" barrel.

Colt Single Action Army. 357 Magnum, 5 1/2" Barrel. This gun highly customized. Rear sight is Smith & Wesson, front sight is Ruger Blackhawk. Backstrap is brass from 1851 Navy.

I've beem through several M1917s, New Services, and Officer's Model Match, one Colt Python.

I still contend that if Colt had kept the New Service in the line, made it a .44 Magnum and given it the Python treatment, they'd be tall hog at the trough today.

Combat Commander Series 70

Peacemaker .22

I nearly forgot completely about one of my all-time favorites, a .22 Colt Frontier Scout, one of those dual-tone little single actions.

This little gun provided many squirrels for the pot.

Old 38 long wheel gun belonged to my father.From around 1900 Shoots good and very tight. Ammo expensive.

I have carried all of the Auto's CC .If I own it is shot .

I only got one Colt. It's a 1978 Colt Python 357 Mag. Still shoots as good as the day my wife bought her for me. I can't guess how many rounds have gone through it but they are many thousands.

These are the only ones I have photos of so far. I'm trying to find the time to photograph all my firearms.

I usually spell it. I haven't figured out a polite pronunciation yet. :)

I love the look of those hammerless guns. They're sweet. I'd purchase one if I could find one I could afford. fawcs may sound like someone trying to clear their throat (on offense intended). :smt082 :smt082 :smt082

They're some of my favorites also; always remind me of Bogart and Cagney.

You just always have to be on the lookout. I picked up the .380 at a gunshow for $400 4-5 years ago, and the .32 for $500, from a customer of the gunsmith I use who heard me remark I was looking for one. Finding these pistols in good or better condition is pretty tough, and the really nice ones usually command a premium as they are in some demand now.

and just what is the Anaconda? chopped liver?My Anaconda was the very first handgun I bought myself as an adult .I still own that SweET tHANG!

The Anaconda was a fine revolver, but it was stainless steel. And it certainly was no New Service. The New Service was all forged/machined hand fitted carbon steel construction, same as the Python.

The Anaconda was not.

King Cobra is my one and only wheel, Just purchased a 1991A1 that seems to be just a bit more accurate than my Glocks!
