Review

An outstanding bit of research on these very highly collected guns, and a must for their owners. --Gun Report, July 15, 1999

Valuable reference volume...it helps clear what has previously been a rather murky area of Colt Single Action history. --Gun Week, January 4, 2000

Extremely detailed with the use of serial number lists and details about how the guns were altered and marked. --Oklahoma State Trooper, Spring 2000
