Re: 45 colt
I wish, but have to wait until I can buy it from a Canadian dealer. Darn border patrol! Should be like the old days, I just ride down to Miles City, spend a day or two at the hotel, and win the new rifle in a card game. A couple of good bar fights, a gunfight in the street, saddle up and ride home.

Re: 45 colt
The LGS Henry dealer is actually getting me a quote for price and ETA to Canada, Mr. Imperato told me spring but you never know they might show up sooner or hopefully they can order one.

Re: 45 colt
it might pay to email Mr. Imperato to find out what's up .... who knows, if anybody can expedite one for you, he would be the one

Re: 45 colt
As much as I would like to have one theres that 1800 dollar price tag that has a big hurddle to it. I also wonder how much I would shoot it as the wood on the one that I found is outstanding. Id be afraid of the dings and scratches. Maybe I shouldnt be but man you spend 1800 on a gun the last thing I want to do is put a big ole ding in the stock. Im sure its just me and how I am but trying to overcome that is hard for me. Al

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: 45 colt
Actually there's no rush, cuz I won't have the dough until spring anyway, at least that's the plan right now. Assuming no truck repairs, house repairs, horse repairs, etc etc...JEBar wrote:it might pay to email Mr. Imperato to find out what's up .... who knows, if anybody can expedite one for you, he would be the one

Re: 45 colt
I hear ya on that one. I'd likely put a leather stock cover on it, but then you cover up the nice wood. It's a cowboy conundrum for sure.BigAl52 wrote:As much as I would like to have one theres that 1800 dollar price tag that has a big hurddle to it.

Re: 45 colt
Good luck getting one of those RR. I wish you the best. I cant wait to see the one you get I will be jealous for sure. I have a couple of other wants in front of one of those and like I mentioned above that price kind of holds me back. Al
