Cimarron Lightning

This is my old orginal Cimarron Lightning. Got it back in 1992. These came in
barrels of 22 cal thru 50 cal. I have the 32 & 45 barrels. They also had a
Flintlock version. Changings barrels is a snap as only one screw is removed.
Two different barrel makes were used, Green Mt. & DeHass. Original price
was 350.00 This is still our main pistol for compention. It has won five
National Championships. Going for six this year. The company has been sold
and I believe is still being made in Jefferson City Mo. No it's not for sale.
The wife would get rid of me before she would the pistol, you see, I really
don't own it, she does. I just get to use it and clean it.

I thought this was a Cimarron Lightning:



I see it says Lightning on the gun, but I've never seen one of those at a SASS match! Interesting gun though.

Edit: Ah, silly me. I see now that I am looking at a muzzle loader. Learn something new every day!

As you can see, they were made by "Cimarron Gun Works"
