Model 1860 Colt Army revolver as it probably looked when manufactured.

lboos,

Thanks for you comment.

I would never be able to afford a pristine example as shown above.

I guess we all have to decide where we fit in this collecting game.

I personally don't collect dug relics either....although ...there is huge interesting history to be found there.

I have a weakness for clear markings....and as much remaining original finish that I can find.

It’s all interesting!
