Jbar4Ranch,

Are you married or single? If married, how do you manage to accumulate such an arsenal? :eek: C'mon, I need some tips here.

Single, but married twice... wasn't very good at it apparently, so it's just me and my daughters running the place now. I seldom drink, don't smoke, and invested wisely. ;)

Fingers,

I sure love your collection of 2nd Gen Colt's! Do you have all of them?

No, and probably never will. There are over 60 different ones, including the one of a kind presentation models. If you count only those that had 75 or more made, there are still 46 different ones. I'm working for the 46 number. Unfortunately, the ones I still need rarely come up for sale (500 or less made) and/or are very pricey.
 
OMG those are all beauties!

Several manufacturers I didn't know and quite a few discontinued or special run models up there!
Thank you for posting those sweethearts!
I just love BP revolvers, they have so much class!

Only one at present... an Old Vaquero in 45 Colt.

Dino, that 49 Pocket/.32 s&w conversion is just WAY cool!

My younger brother has a Pietta just like this one, same vintage too. It is actually a very nice piece and shoots quite well.

This one is a good shooter too. The cased set was one of the ones that Cabelas sold in their Christmas Catalo back then. Wish Ihad bought the other sets as well.

I liked this pistol so well that I finally bought a matching one a few years ago. They've both been used in CAS and gunfight reenactments.
 
Sorry my pic is slightly blurry because of my cheapo camera. Sometimes it takes okay pics, other times they come out slightly blurry.

Far right, CVA, double set triggers .50 cal percussion mountain rifle.

Very top, ASM engraved nickel and gold plated 1860 army .44

2nd from top, unfired, 1 of 2 consecutively numbered Pietta fully engraved, nickel and gold, special edition, 1 of 5000, 1858 Remington.

3rd from top, nickel and gold, fluted cylinder, Pietta 1860 army .44

4th from top, the other unfired, fully engraved, nickel and gold special edition, 1 of 5000, Pietta 1858 Remy that is consecutively numbered to the 2nd one from the top.

5th from top, my cut and crowned barrel, stainless, Pietta adjustable sight target model with dark almost black grips, 1858 Remy that I have the "stainless" R&D conversion cylinder for.

#'s 6 and 7 from the top are another set of unfired, consecutively numbered, fully engraved, nickel and gold, special edition, 1 of 5000 Pietta 1858 Remys.

That all the BP guns I have right now, but watching several others on auction arms and gunbroker as we speak. Both my unfired, consecutively numbered sets of special edition, 1 of 5000, nickel and gold Pietta Remys are currently for sale on gunbroker as well as in the BST forum here. I'm a shooter, if it's too nice and collectible to shoot, I don't want it. That's why both sets are for sale. I shoot all my other ones pictured except for those two unfired sets.
