Anyone into Colt Snubbies?

[perpster]

Lucked into a Banker's Special but it's in .38 Short so it doesn't get carried. The Colts are nice and I like the extra round, but I don't like the exposed ejection rod. And of course, the Colts turn the wrong way.

OCD1,
Yes, it is. It does carry nicely, and I would not trade it for anything, even for a .45 ACP revolver which is something I have slobbered to own for a long time....someday! LOL

I tried it out in a Mika pocket holster today. Not used to have a exposed hammer. It snagged my pocket several times. Either needs a shroud or a bobbed hammer but would hate to "desecrate" a nice gun.

My only Colt snubbie is a cut barrel OP

Got a 1961 Cobra last fall from the male goose on the hill; very clean less some finish lost on the top of the frame. Have yet to shoot it much-new house-new hip (or more accuratly old hip).

She's a pet and doesn't have to work.

Hey Jim, I lived and worked in Mad Town for several years. My inlaws still live up there.

I have seen many geese, but never carrying a Colt

Love your signature(by line) sure you are not my father in law??

And Barb you should see how green I am. I guess you would call it a Safe King. It's a beauty.

I've got a pair of Cobras, but I like my Smiths better.

Very good Thread!!

I've had my Colt Agent for nearly 25 years & have had nothing but enjoyment from it.

Yes, I have fired some +P rounds but mostly stick to the target ammo and never had any problems at all.

Recently aquired this Colt Detective Special.
Manufactured 1970.

Very nice Colt's. I see very few Colt handguns for sale in SW PA, must be a regional thing

I had a brother-in-law leave me a new, late model Detective Special that I haven't gotten around to shooting. No way is that situation going to continue for much longer! Any who said brothers-in-laws couldn't be great guys?

I have only one Colt snubby - this Detective Special. It dates from 1959. I also have the original box and papers for it. Still prefer the Smith J-frames for compactness.
