My Bisley Shoot

Post by krinko » Wed May 28, 2008 11:32 pm

Yes, that's a hole in my living room ceiling and yes, that's the Bisley with which I made the hole.

Thumb slipped, bullet stayed in the house.

Pooh.

All's well that ends well.

Good looking firearm.

Is Bisley the model or the brand ? You can tell I'm not into revolvers can't you.

The less said about the hole the better I think.
The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it.

Woftam,

Bisley, in this case, is a variation on the Colt Single Action Army.

Slightly deeper frame and very different grip, trigger and hammer.

By the way, this is a Uberti/Beretta copy and not a perfectly preserved Colt.
