Awesome Triple Lock ! Thanks for starting this thread!
Thanks Linda. I am pretty proud to own that Triple Lock, the stocks and holster are just icing on the cake.

Here is my Colt 1908 in 380 ACP, but yours is all gussied up, maybe I am a close second?

My mother's father had a Colt very similar to this one. His had the checkered walnut stocks. He carried it in a suede Bianchi IWB with the nickel plated belt clip. It was used in a murder somewhere in CO when he was in LE up there. On his passing, it was offered to my uncle, but he passed due to the history and the shiny Colt went to an unnamed family member (and sadly not me). This little Colt was as close as I came to re-creating it for my collection.

The holster is a floral carved rig by Blumel, made right here in Texas.
