ASM Dragoons
« on: January 11, 2022, 07:10:21 AM »
Okay fellers. Just got these. A 1968 Replica Arms/ASM Model 2 and a 1989 CVA/ASM Model 3. I absolutely love these. These are my first ever Dragoons. They do need some cleaning.

Thank you Hawg. Interesting to me why are the wedge insert slots opposite? Did the Model 3 change the insert slot to the other side?

Nice! I believe the model 3 finally got it right with the wedge.... :).  Looks like a Model 2 and 3?

I don't know why ASM switched sides. All model Colt dragoons go in from the left side.

You done good on those Tim. They are indeed beautiful.

Not sure why ASM put some of the wedges in backwards. Maybe Luigi thought he was making a Walker.
