"Good Trade"
« on: December 29, 2016, 12:44:12 PM »
A buddy of mine wanted a 49' Colt for his girlfriend and I had an unfired one so we did a trade, I got this unfired, too cool bicentennial, High Standard, Griswold and Gunnison. It's a brass frame, but it and the loading lever are chrome plated. Guess my collecting day's aren't quite over yet LOL.

Nice find.  I've always thought the High Standard pistols looked good.  Hope it shoots as good as it looks.

Very nice! I missed out on a High Standard G&G a few months ago (my own fault), but ended up with a Pietta little later.
