« on: June 04, 2019, 12:13:15 PM »
Beginning Jun 1st, 2019, I have begun putting anniversary dates of famous well-known historical events involving black powder firearms (especially Colts!) on our forum monthly calendar. For any of you historians who have an event you would like to see added, shoot me a PM with the info and I'll try to get it added ASAP.
Viva le Colt!

Calendar is located at the bottom of index page (click on the icon) For a quick link, click HERE:

A fine idea, Captain.  PM sent your way: 

June 8, 1844
Battle of Walker's Creek  AKA Pinta Trail Crossing (Guadalupe River);
Captain John Coffee Hays commanding;
Rangers try out their new Colt Patterson No. 5 pistols.

175 years ago, Saturday.
