Colt Country | Home of The Almighty Colt

  Just "updated" 3 of Kaido's revolvers that had been here years ago. One of them only had flats in it  .  .  .  Including the hand spring (that was a LOOOONG time ago!!!) !
 So, they're all "up to snuff" now!!


Pics coming  .  .  .

I have the pleasure to announce the latest offering from Kirst Konversions. A first ever 45acp for the 1860 Army.
Here is a pic of the first 45acp '60 Army!!
 It's a Cimarron sourced Uberti with a silver plated trigger guard. I call it "Beauty and the Beast" !!

For those of you that shoot ROAs, a pawl (hand) can be fab'ed from a Blackhawk (3 screw)  pawl. These parts are extremely hard and can easily be broken if you try to stretch a worn pawl without heating it first. If you do break it, you can fab one from a Blkhwk pawl. It must be thinned to the demention of the original (they are somewhat thinner!). You also have to grind away the second finger and some material so that you can create a "reach"  to closely match the original profile. Then you can shorten the pawl to the full cock/cyl lock-up length and restore (or for the first time) perfect timing!

I decided I needed to set up my 3  ROAs to have the exact same timing so I could look for any differences as things progress with a project I'm working on. Yesterday, I did the above operation to correct the timing on one of two that needed correcting. Fortunately, swapping the pawl of that one was all that was needed to correct the other one. Now, all 3 of the ROAs exhibit perfect timing.

I just finished this fanner for a  customer. It is a " dream gun" he's always wanted.
It features interchangeable barrels and cylinders  which any  combination of  yields a barrel /cylinder clearance of .0015"  which allows its dry-firing capability! ! Talk about a fun gun!!
