Video - Shooting the Colt 1860 Thunderbolt

This is a gun I made about 10 years ago by cutting down the barrel of an 1860 Army and fitting it with birdshead grips.

A .45 Colt cartridge cylinder completed the transformation.

Another great video! I think that the last two or three have been big improvements on your previous videos (and they were no slouches.) In particular, the post-production voice over and multiple camera angles really spiff them up - a lot. Also, the back story adds a nice bit of character.

Thanks for sharing with us!
