Welcome to the forum.

One of my favorite flicks of all time was set partially in your back yard.

Can anyone guess what it is?

Here is a hint: It is not often when RCMP are caste as the bad guys.

You got it goin on kwhi.

Very nice!

Yes, Welcome illu1son

Roaddog · December 28, 2011, 07:27 AM

That is one good lookn Colt. I would give one back leg for one like that. You have a very nice wife ya know. I got a cell phone from my wife

Now she thinks she can get ahold of me any old time, but not if I don't turn it on.

MLeake · December 28, 2011, 10:32 AM

Nice Colt... And the movie sounds like "Manhunt" with Charles Bronson and Lee Marvin.

Doc Hoy · December 28, 2011, 10:42 AM

Close, but no cigar.

Hawg · December 28, 2011, 12:17 PM

Looks like Uberti.

Gehrhard · December 28, 2011, 12:49 PM

Nice, shiny, gift indeed.
The movie, of course, was the 1999 romantic comedy Dudley Do-Right.

In my 40s I went back to college and got my Degree. A guy came around hawk'n graduation rings. I noticed that the price of a ring was exactly the same as the price of a new SAA. I never regretted getting the Colt.

illus1on · December 29, 2011, 01:26 AM

Thanks doc and shortwave!! I'm enjoying it here very much!

BIGR · December 29, 2011, 10:12 AM

Great gift for sure. One can never go wrong with gifts like those. Now if I can just get my wife to start getting me gifts like that instead of clothes.

Gatofeo · January 2, 2012, 03:55 PM

Your wife got a sister?
Who, maybe, likes grumpy ol' desert cats?
My birthday's Feb. 4.
Only 33 more shopping days!
Um ... .44/40, 7-1/2" barrel, and nickel plated with walnut grips.

ghunter1 · January 9, 2012, 08:50 PM

nice present,enjoy it.

bedbugbilly · January 9, 2012, 09:14 PM

Great present! That's a fine looking revolver for sure! Congrats!

Now for the pin to prick his baloon . . . did you guys notice that he didn't say ANYTHING about his lovely wife getting him any cartridges for it . . . . it would be a shame if he had to wait all the way until his birthday to get some cartridges.

kwhi43 · January 9, 2012, 09:20 PM

I've got plenty of 45 Colt. You guys haven't figgered it out yet have you?
Those who know me, my first name is Phil. The reason for the top "P".
What do you think my wife's first name is. I'll give you three guesses and the
first two don't count. Yep your right. Paulette. So the BIG queation. Just
who's initals are on the grips ????????? What's the old saying? What's mine is
mine and what's yours is mine.

bedbugbilly · January 9, 2012, 09:53 PM

LOL! Somehow, with the wife that you have . . . I don't think you'll mind too much if she "borrows" it once in a while!

All kidding aside, that was a real nice Christmas present and i'm sure you'll treasure it always!

And those grips are like sweet icing on an already delicious cake!
