Here’s my 1950 Colt Challenger (the 1,154th made). This gun came from the Charles Kroeger Estate Collection. Mr. Kroeger was a master gunsmith, master engraver, avid Colt collector, and lifelong member of the NMLRA.
I suppose he decided to make his $40.00 investment look just a little better. I’ve yet to see another, but assume some exist. He also added the walnut grips.
I think the known issues are taken care of. If you have any issues or know of another member who is having issues, PM daytime dave. As we head towards the holidays, hunt with your Henry.

Collecting Colts is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs. There’s also a negative side.

Re: 1950 Colt Challenger With A Twist
Very Nice, you can make a basic gun look pretty good if you try.
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.
I don't look back at the things I can't do anymore with regret, I just look forward to the things I still can.
