new to me revolver
« on: February 14, 2015, 06:55:30 PM »
man am I stoked ... I have line on and am going to touch and deal on it tomorrow and hopefully I will be the proud owner of a real pony.

she is the "col. Colt sesquicentennial model" in 45 Colt. 7.5 inch barrel and still in the wooden presentation box. polished screws and white cylinder and grip frame as well as the cylinder pin and ejector thumb piece. very good looking photo's and if I get it in the trade ... I will certainly post photo's of this super looking pony revolver. will be my first ever '73' real Colt. serial is 19XXSC.

any info would be super.

C:\Users\Owner\Pictures\73 SAA Colt

till I get nother photo chance ... I will use the sellers photo's here.

she is an inspiration in beauty. I am having a real problem not shooting this as there is 4999 others just like it. also it is not pristine and I REALLY want to shoot it in a real way. it has cousins that are very engraved and way fewer in number and if I had received one of those I would not have the current battle.

somebody tell me to go shoot this beauty ... PLEASE?

It's a beauty, Ted....but guns are for shooting, not looking at.

think I will load some BP's today and go put smoke thru this pony ... been a very long time waiting for my very own Colt and now ... as a result of yesterdays horse trading ... I have two. the second is a third gen [79] 357 in a 5.5 inch barrel. gonna try to smoke it up as well. those 357 rounds are sure fun loaded with Black Powder.
