Newbie again

[Len]

I've been hanging out on the Remi '58 for 5 yrs. Saw that most of the active guys also belong here, so thought it better to toe in.
I got 7 originals and shoot them all pretty regularly. No proper Colt, but my Manhattan Navy, Series I, S/N 515 might just qualify me as a member here (there's a Manhattan thread on, but it's void). It's a very nice shooter.
The others are: one French and one British flintlock pistol (18th cent) and one Belgian/Swedish caplock rifled pistol 19th cent), one Smith carbine (cavalry), one '58 Remi NMA and one Remi Navy Riders DA.
Like tinkering with what I drag home from auctions.
Shoot in my back yard.

Hi Len,   took you awhile to make the trip over here.

Yes. Some guys are shyer, slower and more withdrawn

Hey Len, You mentioned you have seven originals, I assume Colts. Pictures
would be nice. When you can please provide us with  stories for each  i.e., age, model, when you got them.
Welcome over here.

I've tried posting photos, but they bounce. Size too large. Have to find some way to compress or "Save for web & device", with a loss of quality,sic.

Picture now up in "Brand X" -- "Manhattan"

That Manhattan is a beauty and Mike did his usual excellent work.  Those two items together make quite a rig. 

Len – Maybe post (somewhere) that good photo of your recent Rem .36 DA and the original Remington 1858, the one with the ruler between them (IMG_2177).  It’s a really valuable comparative study of their relative sizes.

Hi G,
the Manhattan was kind of my ticket to this forum, not a Colt but certainly Colt-ish. I will attend to your demand in due time, but will take new pix with the Manhattan included (wouldn't like to pxss off any serious Colt fanatics on here, by including that-you-know-what in a pix without something Coltish.
