[QUOTE="turkeyrun, post: 4143819, member: 27991"] I HAD one, looked exactly like yours. Billy the Kid carried one, supposedly because the small birdshead grip fit his small hands better. Cool gun, fun to shoot (I don't recommend it) and very fragile action. I loaded .38 Special brass with 2.5 gr Unique and 148 gr HBWC. Very low power, weak load, but accurate. Sold it because of value and possible breakage rendering it worthless. Can't shoot it, don't want it. There is a dealer in Tulsa that collects them. Sets up at many gunshows. I ran into him in Lawton and mine was gone. I had it about 10 years. I was working for psychopath. Went to unload some electronics from the trunk of his car, for repair. Seen the Colt and was looking it over. He came out and tells me he won it in a poker game, couldn't find ammo for it, I could have it. He didn't have to say it twice. As stated in several responses: Very fragile action, no parts available Don't not refinish Don't fire / dry fire Enjoy the history, beauty or sell it I enjoyed mine, reminence on it, but have never regretted trading it.
