Just happy to have it :D
 
The grips look like Navy grips to me, a bit shorter than I would expect to see on an 1860 Army. I happen to have a steel framed Armi San Marco "44 cal 1861 Navy" that is basically an 1860 Army with Navy grips which was an original factory Colt option.
 
If I wig out, whaddaya gonna do about it? Hey, if it's your shooter do with it what you want to make it fit and function how you want it. I find matte black a nice color for sunny days 'cause it cuts the glare. I have 4 Uberti pistole`s that are millennium finish which is a matte black. No blinding glare. Love 'em.
 
Some of the forums I "was" on -- the purists were a little touchy -- the Mods would always have to step in and squash arguments :rolleyes:

"I just put pearl grips on my .45 ACP Luger" :D

:eek:

"But its my gun" ! :mad:
 
If it's a clone.... you can paint it red, white and blue and it won't bother me.
If it were an original or a Belgium Centaur, I might feel bad about it, but still couldn't do anything.
Have fun with it! :)
 
Me-thinks only a Yankee...

Or a damn Yankee -- a Yankee who travels south of the Mason-Dixon Line... and stays! -- will like this pix! ;)
