Colt Revolvers | Forum profile

The possibility has been raised in the past that there might have been a few. However, this isn't one of them. I think this should really be in Colt Revolvers.

Wow...thats all I can say: http://www.gunsinternational.com/Col...n_id=100097852

Today I shot a blued Colt Cobra and S&W Model 57. They both had powder rings on the face of their cylinders. I sprayed them with Gunzilla and let them sit for about ten minutes. Then I brushed the faces with a bronze brush. Poof! Powder rings gone.

I have repro grips on my cut down 1917 I've shown here. I might of got them from the same place. Can't remember but they are excellent and hang past the bottom just enough to feel but not bitch about. Your look better than the shiny wood grips.

They look good to me!

Those must have been some watches (an area that does not interest so I am mostly ignorant on the subject)!

so 1926 is the cutoff year for interchangability of grips on these smaller frame colts? i stand corrected.

Looks great! You're brave to work on such an expensive material for the first time like that, but you did a super job! I like the cracking and color on that ivory. Plain ivory, to me, looks...well, plain, especially one piece grips. But yours, showing just the right amount of character in my opinion, are about the best looking set of ivories I think I've ever seen

I am still shooting Ammo from 1958 in my M1A, National Match.

Any ideas who this person is? Thank you. Could be Dan Chesiak. If so he is one of the best and has done the CCA Show Gun for quite a few years running. I don't know for sure, but I wouldn't be surprised if Colt farmed...
