New Toy from Old Thread

toolslinger · May 5, 2012, 01:04 PM

So I have really been craving a Griswold and Gunnison. I wanted one as a start to a Confederate handgun collection and because I like the show Hell On Wheels and it really pisses me off that they don't give Cullen an accurate replica.
I have been eyeballing the repro's on the various sites and have seen them for as low as $209.00 but I chickened out every time.
While reading through the archives I saw over on page 40 a link to the Traditions bargain bin
Just ordered this
http://www.traditionsfirearms.com/pr...c3c68a3a434054
Yeah I know it's a .44 but it's close enough for $177.00 shipped.
Here is the link to the bargain bin
http://www.traditionsfirearms.com/sp...810428969d2ecc
In case anyone else wants one.

Toolslinger I'm really tempted to buy that bling looking 1860...
Thanks for the link but wish you hadn't posted it

toolslinger · May 5, 2012, 02:36 PM

Yeah sorry about that bubba

But blame Arcticap I got the link from one of his old threads. I didn't even know you could order directly from Traditions. I thought they just supplied stuff to other retailers.
But it's ok if you want to blame it on me

Just don't tell MY wife.

I'm not employed by Traditions. Honest!

toolslinger · May 5, 2012, 08:16 PM

Doesn't matter

If I get caught I am still blaming you.

What do you mean these cattle have the wrong band? He told me they was his!

TomADC bought a nickeled Traditions Hawkens with a laminated stock from the bargain bin that he blamed on me too, so you're not the first!

thanks, just ordered one.
I've gotten several similar deals with Traditions.
Although I wanted it in .36, this is too good to pass up.

Well now that I know about it I will be watching with great interest. Maybe they will decide they have too many Spiller & Burrs

toolslinger · May 8, 2012, 09:52 AM

Traditions just informed me they ain't got none

I am trying to figure out what they do have

Red Wiggler · May 8, 2012, 01:17 PM

TomADC did you ever find another ace's and eight's ?

toolslinger · May 8, 2012, 01:43 PM

Well shoot. No gun for me

Order cancelled.

TomADC · May 8, 2012, 01:54 PM

I didn't buy the Traditions blinged 1860 but did buy a Uberti 1860 from the person I bought my 3rd model Dragoon from. Should have it soon.

Red Wiggler not for the price I wanted to pay.
