What do you Hombres think a Belgian made Centaure Centennial 1960 New Model Army(copy of the 1860 Colt Army revolver) is worth....... with the action tuned as well as can be done....not real ragged out in the finish dept......main spring ground with a snappy taper to it (flat ground and not hour glass shape ground.....arbor properly bottomed in the barrels hole when the wedge tightens it up.....shoots a lil high and is as accurate as one can be........made dry fire safe so the hammer stays nice........solid lock into battery......alignment of the chambers to the bore right on......new milled tool steel wedge fitted well with the surfaces all bearing flush(no light can be seen between the surfaces of the wedge/barrel slots/arbor slots......made of steel harder than the average Italian guns......made to lock into battery when the hammer stops dead solid against the backstrap(no over travel to the hammer)....... chambers reamed with a chucking reamer to .002-.003 in.over the barrels groove diameter.......breech end of barrel reamed with a piloted reamer to be perfectly perpendicular to the centerline of the bore with an 11 degree forcing cone reamed with a piloted reamer concentric to the bore......muzzle end of the barrel face reamed with piloted reamer perpendicular to the bore and piloted reamer done crown concentric with the bore......hard Belgian cones/nipples in real good shape......fit of the parts even and flush as they should be........showing some use to the finish but has been well maintained with no rust/pits in chambers or barrel.....shoots standard size lead balls.......looks to have the real cyanid casehardening that actually hardens......hard to find anything to critisize or complain about with the gun.
I'm just wondering what something like this gun would be worth to someone. I know anything is only worth what someone is willing to pay fer it.
I have several of these Belgian Colts. Out of the eight I have I've worked about four of them to one degree or another.
Just wondering about this in case,down the road, I ever decide to sell.
You can't hurt my feelings or insult me with any opinions bout this. I'm too old to get riled up over lil things.
