Griff Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Chalk up another shooter for the best category & side match in all of SASSdom: Colt 2nd Series 1851, LNIB. Sorry, (not sorry), collectors, this is destined to be a shooter! Along with the other 3 mates! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dilli GaHoot Galoot Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 A couple times in my life I have been lucky enough to have a firearm that some might call "collectable" and all of them were destined to become shooters. Anytime anyone objected I suggested that if they thought it should remain a "collector" and not a shooter there was nothing stopping them from making me a fair market offer. Out of all the times that came up only ONCE did anyone step up with any offer and truth be told his offer was great, included sampling some whiskey when we met up and everyone was happy. The other times I just added that experience to my opinion of the offended folks and went on with my life Lovely pistol you have there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Coffinmaker Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 And a Squareback to Boot!! Good Catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griff Posted April 23, 2023 Author Share Posted April 23, 2023 8 hours ago, Colorado Coffinmaker said: And a Squareback to Boot!! Good Catch. And only 173 numbers from the first one I bought in 2007. Both under 8,000. The new one still needs a Manhattan gate & a Ruger plunger and hand spring... All I need is a set holsters for the Patersons and they're ready for a match...
