It is a common misconception that General George Patton carried pearl handled Colt Single Actions. When he read reports in the media about his "pearl handled" revolvers, General Patton became very upset and blasted the reporter good! His revolvers had IVORY grips, Patton's comments were that "only a pimp in a New Orleans whorehouse would carry a pearl handled pistol". <img src="graemlins/r.gif" border="0" alt="[king]" />
