Train Robber 13659 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Went out to look at some vintage Lionel to buy and bought the trains and as always asked if they had any old guns or gun related items . Little ole lady says yeah we have a 41 Colt ! She agrees to show it to me. I ask might I make you an offer. I get to go home with the trains and the Colt plus two boxes of once fired Western brass. A first gen Colt with a replacement cylinder..likely a Christies and an undersized base pin no finish but all edges and markings are sharp! The trains were well used but the Colt sure made the day !! Glad I had an extra 1k in cash along :-) The Colts are still out there. Train Robber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Train Robber 13659 Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 SAA I am not familiar with Thunderer values but am sure one with no finish and a replacement cylinder is not a 1k value gun. T.R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Train Robber 13659 Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 All Lionel trains . a 2020,2023,622,and 2056 engines plus a dozen or so frieght cars . Poor condition in todays market they are low end runners or for restoration.Did get the Sheriff and Outlaw car though . We'll add that one to the around the tree set as my wife likes them . She really enjoys the Giraffe cars as they duck the telltails:-) Two of our five kitties always come over and watch the train whenever I run it . The're packed back up till next Christmas now. T.R.

DocWard Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 How come I never have that kind of luck? "If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all..." Congratulations on the finds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
