Old Colt - 1909

[Spodeley]

For the longest time I thought I had one that had been in the first shipment to go off the Philippines, but the SN# is off by a thousand or so.
I had to get it to go along with my M1898Krag (1900-build) I inherited from Grandpa. It's so damn big it's like shooting a .38Spl - but it's a .45Govt. Colt - so I shoot .45LC in it. :)
I love that big old drain-pipe barrel - no damn taper needed. Woof!

That is a really nice find you have there!!! Very cool!

Thanks! It has a great-long but really smooooth trigger. You can just stop in the middle and like *park it* there, stage-it and hold it, and then pull till it breaks when your sights are (back) right on target! :)
