My favorite single action is the Colt. I have a Third generation that some fast draw idiot buggered up a bit making it a bit unsafe. It will fire from the safety, half cock and full cock notches. Colt wants too darn much for a new trigger and hammer but being cognizent of the problem, I know how to handle it. It has the 4 3/4" barrel and is light enough that it is carryable all day long. A Keith style 250 gr. bullet and a stiff charge of Unique finishes off the package. One of these days, I'm going to whittle out a decent one piece grip for the gun that doesn't feel like a pregnant cow. My First generation Colt made in 1908 has grips that feel just right as did the Second Generation .45 I had back in the early 1960's.
That hair triggered .45 has come to be my favorite hiking handgun and I figure it'll handle any problems I have with predators, either two or four legged on my mountain hikes. Paul B. |
