Not at the moment.
As Archie and Edith sang, "Those were the days!"
Dan Combs, the Man. The Legend.
A close friend use to tell me stories of training under him, and how Dan and Jelly Bryce used to get together and shoot together. That would be a sight to witness.
Edit: referring to the second picture, top left. How in the world did you acquire that, of course I know it is none of my business. No need to Answer. I would love to see all those on display in person. Thanks

I have looked for quite a while trying to figure out the ??? model, you have below and to the right of the Combs pistol, with the dove tail or partridge front sight.
Every one I found says it has been recrowned.
I see the new Competitor series, which look ugly as all get out, silly. Even tried to pick one up at the Tin Star, could not make myself do it. It is Old School or No School for me. And I am Okay with that.

The Dan Combs was acquired from an OHP Trooper several years ago. NIB, with presentation case, unfired, cylinder not turned and has some documentation with it. It's the holy grail of Oklahoma guns and it's for sale. Be ye warned, it's not cheap. PM if interested.......
The ??? model is a 681. It was a beater gun, bought it from another member and completely re-worked the entire gun. I milled the dovetail for the front sight and then cut the frame for a Cylinder and Slide rear sight. It turned out pretty good. I created a thread on it when I built it, I will try and find it and resurrect the thread.
‘If’ I had any they would be locked up safe and sound.
It would be an Honor to own such a piece.
I won't ask how much, cause you know if I have to ask, I do not have that kind of coin, on hand.
Plus I would constantly be tempted to get it out and play with it, then I would have to Shoot it.
I do have a 2013 HD Ultra, for $13,000.00 , Like New sitting in the Shop, Stage 1 kit with Vance and Hines exhaust, Mustang leather seat, with back rest, arm rests for passenger. around 11000 miles on it.
If and when I sell it, I do want to invest in some revolvers especially a pre lock S&W 686 model, also want a 44 mag, but leaning toward an Anaconda for that piece. A Dirty Harry would work though.
I'm fairly certain I got to see Dan and some other OHP perform at a 4-H camp, at Quartz Mtn. over at Lone Wolf, OK. in 1975 shortly before his death. They demonstrated a man hunt with some blood hounds, and showed us a 55 gallon drum full of home made shanks from Big Mac Riot. There was no Live Fire, but I recall the voice of a Tall skinny fellow that was the MC of the performance. His cadence in speech was One of a Kind and very interesting. I could be wrong it was years ago, I did however get to meet Jelly Bryce, he used to visit my Uncles Beer Joint in Mtn. View, OK. He and Jelly were close to the same age.
YouTube has some awesome video on Dan Combs demonstrating Firearms well worth a watch.
