    At the risk of being unhelpful, you just won the prize for "Post I Least Understand" in my history on fchat:)

    Umm not really, Colt firearms forum. We are just as OCD about these old Single Action Army guns. Like what box they came in. And it gets worse.

    I got two SSAs.

    One .357 and the other 44.40 (1 of 50).

    Both 4&3/4"

    Not the finest guns ever made, but the finest guns in a hand ever made.

    Err... Shouldn't that be 4&5/8" Mark?

    Wrong forum? How do y'all think I signed up as "455Fosbery" in a Ferrari forum if it wasn't by mistake!

    Nice brace of guns you got there. Of course they all have pretty hard trigger pulls. 😉
    Are you on the Colt forum?

    Where do you put it in your 308? Under the seat or in the tool roll? ;)

    ...that or a Bianchi #4 ("Askin's Avenger") wearing a suitable coat to protect the Ferrari leather... P7 PSP is about the best carry piece if you are OK with a 9... I'd imagine that the Mk23 would be a bit bulky Robert!

    Here's a near mint "455 Fosbery" with the correct box and all the bits (about $20K at auction in this condition)... A pre-WW1 automatic revolver with speed loader, who knew...

    Had seven Fosbery's at one time, extremely accurate and very fast in rapid fire. I set a record at Bisley with a 1901 Model that has not been broken.

    Dang! Wrong forum (again)...

    In my opinion it belongs into the tool roll.... Just in case Robert wants to shoot his steering rack :)

    Best
