    Colt Noob from the Sooner State

    I've decided to delve into the world of Colt revolvers after handling my first one a few days ago - a MkIII 4-inch blued Lawman in .357 mag. What a tank! I was really impressed at how solid it felt and how tight it was. The pawn shop was asking $399, but since we're saving every penny for our trip to Israel, I had to very reluctantly pass on it.

    Had to pass on a sweet nickel 2-inch MkIII Lawman on GunBroker too. It was going to be WAAAAAAAY more than $399.

    When the time is right, a .357 Lawman or Trooper will be mine!

    Looking forward to learning more about Colt wheelguns here.

    Welcome to the Forum, Roscoe.357! I'm a Colt semi-auto guy myself, but I sure enjoy looking at anything Colt. Learning lots about Colt wheelguns just by looking & reading here.
