When cracks were discovered

Actually, I discovered the cracks, several of them, while cleaning it the first time after purchase. I was not observent enough to pick them up during initial inspection. Probably because the weapon was so filthy. I had not actually fired it with this barrel yet.

So I took it back to the shop where I had purchased it, and of course, no refunds... But they did help with calling their Colt rep. who told them to have me send it in to them immediately. Colt fixed it. It took about six weeks, but I have it back with an 8" barrel. I never saw a bill. I assume from reading other posts that this would be highly unusual for Colt not to charge for this type of repair, so I can only assume the the shop paid for it.

I have about as many Colt wheel guns as I do S&W. I can say that I like them both on their own merits and will continue to collect both.

It is an awesome tack driver. I hope to hunt with it this season.
