Like to try a new thread specifically for posting your new acquisitions. You can show your recent acquired Colt revolvers, receive comments and questions. Hope it works.

 

[Old-Colts]

Colt Single Action chambered in 45 Colt that was shipped to Walter Tips in Austin, Texas in 1896.

I'm currently trying to add another, but earlier, Texas shipped Colt to the stable.

 

[Flattopbis]

Colt Bisley Flattop Target 38WCF shipped March 1898 to Colts in San Francisco. The topstrap is lightly engraved " G A Searls Miles City".

My latest - traded another member for it (thanks Cam!) - New Service with a 4 1/2 inch barrel in 38 wcf to match my Rem slide-action carbine in the same caliber.

I also posted this in the New Service photos thread so if you've seen it before I apologize.

That's a beauty!

Here is another Bisley. Shipped in 06 to Bonebrake Hardware and Implement Co., El Reno Oklahoma Territory. Boy I wish these could talk!

Hopefully my latest Colt will be one I'll find at the Denver show this coming weekend!

UPDATE:

Well, the Denver show was good for me and I bought this Colt Single Action chambered in 41 Colt. It has a mint bore and examining the chambers with a high intensity light I only see 2 that look like they’ve been fired. There’s barely a nick on the firing pin, no marks on the recoil shield, and only a faint turn ring on the cylinder. It is truly almost unused. It was probably stored without a coating of oil, so the Case Colors have faded on the exposed flat surfaces, but the recessed and protected areas are heavy and bright. It was shipped to Simmons Hardware in St. Louis, MO on October 23, 1901 in the configuration pictured.

 

[whitecoyote]

Colt Detective Special, mfg. 1956, nickle finish

 

[Pulicords]

My latest: Diamondback 4" .22 (circa 1977)

 

[Old-Colts]

This is starting to worry me, this is my third posting on this thread! 1968 Trooper as new in the box.

 

[OIF2]

Nice Trooper!

Nice Trooper!

Thanks Bob! I bought it for my wife to use as a home protection gun when I'm gone overnight on hunting or fishing trips, but I think I might have to put that one in the safe and buy her another one that shows some wear!!

I picked this up Friday...

1980 Trooper Mk III in .22WMR

 

[Old-Colts]

Colt Single Action chambered in 41 Colt that was shipped to Tompkins Hardware Company, address unavailable, on September 30, 1892. However, based on my research the “Shipped To” location might have been Leadville, Colorado.

Combat Commander in 9mm

Combat Commander in 9mm

One of my favorites..
Question, though: 3 shots in 3 seconds? Why did it take so long? 1911's can run even faster....way faster....

 

[Doc H]

Engraved SAA from Nutmeg Sports, Jim Alaimo ivory, Jerome Harper engraver; slick action job as well, with antique nickel finish. Very impressed with their work!

 

[swamprat]

Early Christmas present to myself

Colt Bisley 32WCF made in 1907, Elephant Ivory grips, engraved by WBE. Any one know who WBE is?
