Looking for a Frontier Six Shooter

[swamprat]

I am looking for the following guns:

Colt SAA, 3rd gen, nickel plated, black powder frame & barrel ETCHED "COLT FRONTIER SIX SHOOTER", any bbl length.

Colt SAA, 3rd gen, blue/CC, black powder frame & barrel ETCHED "COLT FRONTIER SIX SHOOTER" with a 7 1/2" bbl;( I got a 4 3/4" & a 5 1/2" bbl, need the long one!)

I also need a nice original magazine for a Colt mdl 1908 caliber 380 auto. This is a 1915 gun and requires a mag with the rounded top, stamped on bottom either "calibre .380" in one line or "cal.380" over "COLT" in two lines.

This thread made me smile...only because I have been scratching the dirt everywhere I can think of to track down one of the 2010 Frontier Six Shooters in nickel. I saw a 4 3/4" version at the Colt Show in KC but it wasn't for sale. I reckon they have to be out there and patience will ultimately produce the reward...but patience has never been a strong suite for me!

Hugh,

Did Colt's lengthen the cylinder flutes on that one Six-Shooter?

sixguns,
There was one at the HGCA gunshow in Houston last weekend, a nickel 45 Colt, 4 3/4" bbl. The seller wanted $2750 for it and I didn't want it that bad!!!

Tim,
That is a Colt long flute cylinder that came out of the Custom Shop several years ago. I don't know if they are still offering them or not.
