    New Member from NW Florida

    Used to post a lot at THR until their troubles. Retired from the Navy in 1991 after 26 years and have lived way North of Pensacola since 1986, practically in Alabama. I bought my first gun, a Ruger Blackhawk .357 in 1972 so I was a late arrival at the gun scene. Life member in the NRA since 1978.

    My interest in guns has changed over the years...pistols, .22 rifles, milsurps, Spanish revolvers, pre-war Smith & Wesson's in .32 and .38 calibers. Then I caught the Colt Clue and have been adding Colt revolvers to my larder, mostly pre-war revolvers and a few newer ones.

    After winnowing out the pistols and milsurps my collection looks like this now.

    Hello, HPFlashman! Florida Native here and future returnee to the Sunshine State. Retired Army in 1997. Shame your collection has "dwindled" so drastically, but I sense that since you've caught the "Colt Clue" your Pony collection will self-propogate. Ha Ha!! Welcome to the Forum!

    Welcome HPFlashman, glad you shared you nest of pistols. It would be interesting to see what hatches out.
    Tomorrow hopes we have learned something from yesterday.

    Thanks, majdad93. The trick to photography like that is a small single bed, lots of Eibar revolver filler and mixing in a few pistols.
