Colt Eley for Sale

The upside is that you will probably be able to shoot both .45 Colt and .455 ammo with no dramas. That is, if the .45 Colt rim recesses are small enough to allow the .455 rims to seat on the rear of the cylinder.

I have a Colt New Service .455 Eley converted the same way. It will shoot both .455 Eley and .45 Colt out of the gun. I figure the gun was converted in the late 50's or early 60's when the gun market was flooded with surplus .455 Eley pistols. I like to shoot the shorten .45 Cowboy rounds out of the gun.

The simplest would be to take it to your local gunshop and say " I want a box of ammo for this , it may have been coverted to .45 LC . If it will fit I'll buy some , if not I'll take some .455 . "
