Of course, the buyer may have wanted it to round out a particular look for a display of his vintage Colt, who knows. As someone else mentions, you never know what those Colt fellas are gonna get up to next.

I have found that when some guys find a holster they like,
especially on auctions, they don't let a little thing like money
prevent them from having it. I have been guilty of that syndrome
a few times myself, but not too bad.
