Wow! I have to ask, when it's just one big one on the back of your neck the size of a fist is it still called goose bumps or is it called goose bump?

Thanks for kind words, really appreciate it.
All are 44 or 45, except the Frontier '62.
Need to do again as this was taken several years ago.
I am half afraid to get the ladder out again to get high enough for the picture.
Been collecting Colts and Winchesters for lots of years, and more recently Ruger Old Models.
Be careful out there, most all (estimate at least 8 of 10) Colts have been "enhanced" in some way when you get prior to 1920's or so.
Winchesters even worse. Winchester "restorers" are some of the best I have seen at recreating "original" 70-90% finish high dollar guns.
This is hobby I share with my dad, and am fortunate to still have him around while I am old enough to listen.
Anyway, hope you enjoyed me having a few drinks and me pullin up some photos.

That collection is incredible. I have not been a huge Colt fan because of the grip frame shape but as I have been playing with my Lipsey's 44 sp I realize that my issues are with that grip frame and heavy loads, something that you don't do with real Colts. One of these days I will have to get a 5 1/2" 45 colt 1st or second generation gun I think for a shooter. You know in the name of historical research. That 44sp really is what I feel a Colt should be...
