Reprocussions

A new series from C&Arsenal, the folks who brought us the weapons of WWI series. They're doing Colt percussion revolvers beginning with the ''Old'' Model Patterson. Looks like they're doing the entire Colt line of cap&ball revolvers, all re-pops so they're not risking shooting any originals, and the lovely Mae does load and shoot them as well as giving an opinion on each afterward, just as she does with the WWI collection.

I'm just posting the first video, you can link the rest from the You Tube side-bar.

Most excellent!

When they finish with the Colt line of revolvers. I hope they go to other sidearms of the Old West, Smith & Wesson, Remington, Merwin & Hulbert, and more.

I knew Sam Colt was a rather interesting fellow, but this series sheds a lot more light onto his personal life, showmanship, genus, and even his odd ways. The development of his guns so far is also an interesting history in itself. I'm waiting for the Dragoon videos!
