Oldest gun you carry

[Grimjaws]

I decided to go old school and carried my 1930 38/44 over the weekend on my friends property. It was real heavy on the belt but was neat to do it. So what is the oldest gun you've carried?

 

[PuertoRican]

Colt Army Special .32-20 from 1927.

 

[sigp220.45]

Colt Pocket Hammerless .380 from 1916.

 

[jdh]

Colt pocket hammerless in 32 from 1916.

 

[BloodyThumb]

Also a Colt Pocket Hammerless on occasion. I rescued a rusty old 380 from 1909 with a new barrel and an satin nickel finish and carry it on occasion.

 

[petepeterson]

Colt Pocket Hammerless .380 from 1916.

I think the Colt was way ahead of it's time for CC.

 

[ContinentalOp]

Nothing as vintage as the previous posters, but I currently EDC a Colt Series 80 Govt Model that I bought new back in the 90s. It was my first 1911. According to the Colt website, it was manufactured in 1993.

 

[cvc944]

Colt Model 1903 Pocket Hammerless built in 1926. If you bought a new car when this was made, you bought a Ford Model T. I love this little baby.

 

[Deceasedeye]

1910 FN Browning 32cal. my favorite!

 

[bigwheelzip]

My oldest CC is my sharp tongue.

 

[delcrossv]

I carry this beater M&P from time to time. Dates from the 'teens.

 

[AJ]

I have carried this before several times in my pocket. Also have carried it in a leather case. It is a Colt 1903 Hammer in .38 ACP. The .38 ACP is the forerunner of .38 Super. This is 1914 manufacture.

 

[Xfuzz]

Another 1908.
Slipped this in my back pocket on my evening walk
a couple weeks ago. 1922 Colt

I don't carry it much but sometimes a 4 digit M1917. I assume it was made in 1917. Larry

 

[biku324]

I carry my M58 hiking - it's lighter than my other N-frames and could dispatch any of our smallish New Mexico black bears or feral dogs.

 

[NovaJoe]

I occasionally carry a .32 Hand Ejector from 1909.

 

[serger]

3rd model Safety Hammerless in 38 S&W.
Sn in the 631** range. No idea when it
was born .

 

[Charlie Foxtrott]

Another 1908 Colt Hammerless here.

Mine dates to 1924.

 

[rubiranch]

Shipped April 1995 my 640-1. LOL

My oldest gun was shipped March 1960.
I never have felt much like carrying a M27 with a 6.5" barrel.

 

[Heinz]

M1910 FN Browning, Shoots well, fun to carry.
I believe 1911 production, 4 digit serial number. It now has wood grips and a set of original horn grips. Photo in original FN case. Alas it did not come from the factory with that finish (GI bring back)

 

[NCBeagle]

I regularly carry revovlers from the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Most of my regular carry guns fall on that spectrum. Sometimes carry a 1969 Colt Agent. That's probably the oldest in the carry rotation.

 

[LLOYD17]

Carried this for a time until I picked up a Colt DS. Shipped in August 1900.

 

[nutsforsmiths]

Carried a Smith 32 Safety Hammereless a few times. Dates from 1913

 

[Valmet]

Carried my 1956 Pre-37 Airweight and 1968 Colt LW Commander years ago, but these days, just a boring old Glock, mfg'd in 12/04.

 

[Protected One]

Occasionally carry a S&W Model 60-0.

 

[oldiegoldie]

when i'm anticipating an unruly mob.

 

[Marshal Tom]

While I was the Town Marshal in my town I dressed up on Halloween in an old west outfit and carried my 4 3/4" 2nd Gen. Colt .45 SA but I backed it up with something else on my person when I did, just in case!

 

[31FordA]

The oldest gun I've carried was a 1948 M&P snub. Also carried a 1950 Detective Special for a while. Currently the oldest gun I regularly carry is a 12-2 snub.

 

[ruger 22]

My oldest is my 1961 Model 17-1. Just love that rich blue and fantastic fitting.

 

[jchodur]

Occasionally this Colt 45 Model 1911 made in 1918.
