New to Colt forum
« on: October 19, 2019, 05:25:52 PM »
I’m a retired mental health worker.,  hospital chaplain.  Currently live in Garland Texas (Dallas). Age 71. I have three Colt style cap and ball replicas.  Two Armi SAN Marco #2 Dragoons.  One Navy Arms .36 1851 navy.  Love shooting the Dragoons.  The last time I was at the range I loaded one with ffF black. A fellow at the end of the bench said “Wow I felt that all the way down here.”   Dragoons make an impression.

Welcome aboard DragoonRick!

It's a little quiet around here right now, but it will pick up soon. Lots of fantastic people here. And a veritable plethora of information.

Welcome! I only have one Dragoon (Whitneyville Hartford Uberti) but many Pietta 1851 Navy "type" guns. Looking forward to seeing some photos from you.

Regards,

  Welcome DragoonRick! Check out the sister site too, "the 1858 Forum". Lots of good black powder revolver info there also.
