Default Me and Colts

Don't seem to shoot well together.
This is the next experiment.
At least it is my opportunity to try a King enhanced gun.
Pretty sure the action was done also.
Trigger is scary light with no push off.

King with red reflector? Heck, even a blind man could shoot that well

Nice gun Paul, looks like a 5" barrel. The Colts are nice shooting guns, is it a .38? Some day I'll have an Officer model match but I want the bead front sight and a rear U notch. If you shoot it, give us a range report. The bright red bead should help in being a tad more accurate. My targets seems to look like a shotgun blast no matter how hard I try. Enjoy that Colt, Larry

Very nice King done Colt. Mine is just like yours only the red post fell out! Have a spare sight but I like the black better.
