    1862 colt copy

    I picked this up today at the gun show. Always thought this was the best looking percussion revolver built. It's cute as a bugs ear 36cal on a 31cal frame.

    Beautiful small frame gun.

    I love the 1862 Police, especially with a longer barrel like yours has.

    I have one of the Pocket Police models, also with the 6" barrel. Nice compact little revolver and the only 36 I have with recoil! Well, not quite, I have a pair of Pocket Navies also.

    Your right, the Pocket Police is a nice looking revolver.

    Knowledge I take to my grave is wasted.

    I prefer to use cartridges born before I was.

    Success doesn't make me happy, being happy is what allows me to be successful.
