New "Colt" For The Stable
« on: May 07, 2011, 05:20:47 PM »
Been wanting a .22LR pistol for a while. Was really getting an itch for a Ruger or my friends Colt. Well, lucky day!!!! This 1994 Colt .22 has been a safe queen since new.

Box, Manual, 2 mags. and it reminds me of something out of Star Wars. ;).. The grip is as natural as almost any other pistol I have held.

I ran a quick 50 rds. through it, at a cardboard box and it never even blinked.  Trigger is kinda scary light, and paid $300 for it.

(Friends discount),..... ;)  Took these pics with my Blackberry, so sorry for the pic quality.





Anyone with one of these that has something to share,...please do.



Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

Very nice Twyacht. I have a Beretta Neos that I believe is the same internally abeit with poly lower and a different bbl attachment. Its been very reliable for me.  I think the Star Wars factor was one reason it didnt do better when initially introduced, but I like the futuristic lines.

Nice looking TW. Looks like you got a great deal.  A quick check and I think this is about the cheapest one I found on GB.  Looks like the seller might be a relative of HAZ.
