Wow!! Those 'goons look awesome!!!
 Very nice Fingers!!!!

I've seen " screwless" '60s but did anybody ever make or commission a "screwless" Dragoon?
While we're on the subject, do you know if any screwless version of anything would actually function? The reason I ask is, I don't know how you could install the hammer with the hand attached. Do you have any idea?

Mike, sorry I missed your call.  I've heard of screwless  pistols; but know nothing about them.

Hi Fingers, those are really nice looking revolvers. Please give us the secret for finding such neat revolvers.

Rock Island Auctions. http://www.rockislandauction.com/home   Their website is easy to use.  I just set the search parameters to look for Colts.  Many times they have ASM,ASP, Uberti & Pietta items.  Last auction they had a Centennial Arms engraved 1869 Army with shoulder stock & cased accessories.  I usually bid on a couple items each auction; but don't always win.  Last couple of auctions the 2nd Gens went waaaaayyyyy more than they should have.  Couple years ago I won an auction with 7 pistols in a lot.  it.  I only wanted the Nickel Walker and a Hawes/ASP 1851 Navy.  Sold the other five items or what I paid for 7.
