I have a '60 Colt Army that my Wife's ancestors ,34th VA, relieved from my Dad's ancestors (18th PA.((Both Cavalry)). I aquired it before we married. I guess it is water under the bridge now. Unless we make ripples like I do. These stories are our rich history. They should be told so we can pass them on. On the subject of firearms. The Colt (100% original down to the nipples) shoots straight, just a little high. Not bad for a gun that has been slaughtering hogs for a century or more. I think the collectoble arguement comes in here. Cool holster wear at the front of the barrel where it rode in the saddle for many years. It just talks to you of history. (Roadkill, I have read some of the good natured bantering that wen't on between the WW1 Militia troops. I can't remember where though.)
