    Colt revolving rifles

    Anybody on this forum own one??? Was this covered before? Have seen very few ever at gunshows, none recently. Just wondered if anybody has one and would post a pic for the rest of us.

    Don't own one, and I think I've only seen one for sale in person. Would like to have one someday to go along with my Burgess and Lightning pumps.

    I haven't shot the Burgess, as I recall it won't cycle correctly or something. Could have been the shells I was using. It's been a year or so since I "played with it", however it's a nice looking rifle. When I get my camera back I'll take some pics of it. As rare as they are, I've seen several for sale and a friend of mine close by here has dozens of them (it seems), but he goes all over the country to the BIG shows. I saw a Colt revolving rifle for sale on GB yesterday I think. It was rough but not too high. I'll have to go back and see if I can find it.

    The revolving rifle is still there-5 days left. Serial #333, but it has mechanical issues. It's up to $2400-2500
