hello
« on: January 18, 2014, 09:41:45 AM »
been clangin along for years now and by chance got an invitation to join here. sounds like a place id like to read and contribute so here i is.

i currently am in the care of several revolvers to include;

-colt '62 w/ 5 inch barrel
-uberti '60 w/ 8 inch barrel and shoulder stock
-pietta '52 w/ 5 inch barrel
-Ruger vaquero 45 colt
-springfield Colt 45 auto with all the bells n whistles

many others which are too many to mention now.

my best times are when i slow down to enjoy my best revolver ... the '62 colt. i have such a great time with this little 5 shooter and the blackpowder and caps that it completely takes all the troubles of the world away. this little revolver has to be the best of the lot from yesteryear. modern tho it may be and the required special treatment from my own hands ... it rapidly has become my favorite in action and carry. what a peach.

anyway ... HELLO from Alaska for now but may be anywhere come spring.

Grab a seat and some coffee.  When you warm up, jump in the conversation and show us some photos.
