The '49 Colt Pocket Model was also widely purchased (.31 cal.)

 

[Skinny 1950]

Very nice guns, the Stagecoach hold-up scene on the '49 pocket looks mint and the over all condition on all of them is great,really enjoyed seeing them.

 

[Win 38-55]

A real pleasure to be able to see these old revolvers and day dream about the battles they saw.
