A true pair, matched consecutive Colt SAA. 3rd gen, black powder frame. I've had these for 30+ yrs. Past down to middle son this past Christmas.

a few more pairs
Richard, I don't have anything that compares to those beautiful engraved guns of yours, but here are a few not regularly seen.
First, a pair of bicycle guns, 2" on left and 1 3/4" on right, caliber 32 S&W
Next a pair of model 16's, caliber, of course, 32 S&W Long
Third, a pair of I frame target models, caliber 32 S&W Long
Next a pair of M&P target models, caliber 32 WCF
Finally, a pair of model 631's,2" bbl fixed sight and 4" bbbl target sights, caliber 32 mag
And yes, I like Smith and Wessons in the various 32 calibers

You know, I clicked a "like" here and there and then stopped because I liked them all!!!!
The OP wanted thoughts - my thoughts are that it's always a joy to see guns that match each other, no matter what style, age, brand, caliber. Gun art, sometimes called "gun porn" around this campfire, is enhanced when there are two and three of the same thing.
From a practical perspective, if the firearms are shooters and not just collectibles, there is always something to be said for having guns that match, whether for competition or self defense. Clint at Thunder Ranch likes to say two is one and one is none in the case of fighting guns that might break when you need them most.
So I really do appreciate pairs, or sets, whatever you want to call them.
Then, again, I'm one side of a two set pack that my late, lamented, and quite sainted mother delivered a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
That gives me an idea for a fun thread in the lounge. "Twins".

Here's the Phil Quigley engraved pair of pre-27s, with Keith Brown Grips that is currently my avatar. Probably one of my favorite pairs of all time...
... in their custom Marvin Huey case:
... and a few of them together:
Every time I see them, they make me smile...

Well I just have some test pics right now until I can do a thread. Also waiting on some Historical info but I have a set of something a bit different.
A set of pretty scarce factory red post guns
A four screw pre 17 in factory nickle,
A five screw three digit k22 in matte finish
The way the factory sent them
The way I like them. Not sure which set the Rosewood looks better on.
