Single-Action Trio

Post by PT7 » Thu Nov 08, 2018 8:30 pm

In one of her thread comments, NCG said "you are building a very nice single action collection."
The "collection" is three SA revolvers with no further "building" being planned. Anyway, I like taking firearm photos, so thought I would capture the Trio in a group photo. 'Tis a small group, but a purty group! :D PT7

Largest caliber at top:
~~~1874 Russian Top-Break in .45LC
~~~1890 Police in .357 Magnum
~~~1873 Stallion in .22LR

As to your plans of no further building, let me remind you ... the best laid plans of mice and men and so on, especially when it comes to guns. This is coming from someone whose plans last about a week when it comes to guns. :)

Beautiful trio, though, must admit.

The "number 4" you're suggesting, RR, would be but a duplicate of my 1890 Police. When I introduced this revolver on the Forum http://henryrifleforums.com/viewtopic.p ... ice#p72921 , the short Uberti video clip I listed explained the interesting model production changes back in the late 1800s. Just dug up this Wikipedia history description of same info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_Model_1890

Thanks for keeping track of my small SA revolver collection! :) Always like to look at the guns you point us to.

NCG, agreed that these SA revolvers look very cool...thanks! 8-)

Well, my current plans to stop adding to the cabinet has lasted now three weeks as of yesterday! :o That's good news because the handgun space in the gun cabinet is all taken, and my budget remains intact. Plus I've been quite occupied shooting and learning about these new revolvers. Much fun, and a great distraction from the gun-shopping mode.

Still, understood re. "the best laid plans of mice and men and so on." Just need to keep on holding on. ;)

I once heard "if you want to hear God laugh, tell him your plans."
