Another "need to sell". Up for sale is a reproduction .44 calibre 1860 Colt's Army pistol. Here's the specs:
Made by Armi San Paolo, which later became Euroarms, so I've heard. Was marked Armi San Paolo, but had the Euroarms inspector's stamp.
Overall good shape, bore has some very minor pitting, but the gun shoots fine and is accurate.
ALL modern markings have been removed
Pistol is polished, "in the white"
Grips refinished with correct oil finish
Action smoothed/tuned
Hand spring and trigger/stop spring are both reliable wire springs
New mainspring (pietta is a drop-in fit, so any later replacements will be easily available)
New spring on original hand
Timing is excellent
Nipples and hammer face excellent, nipples have all been removed and threads coated with anti-sieze compound
ACTION IS SLICKER'N SNOT! :)

Asking price is $215 shipped.
