Yup. I have a first, and two seconds. All three drop the LL with more than 40 grains. I don't own a 3rd. I prefer the looks of the 2nd, but folks tell me the 3rd is the best of all of them. More knuckle clearance for sure. Not quite as heavy as a Walker, but damn close! Colt produced way more 3rds than 2nds or 1st models, and with repros it's the same story...sales of third models top all the others.
