In 1861, after Texas seceded from the union, and all the federal troops left the Texas frontier forts, Ben McCullough cut a deal with Sam Colt to ship 1,000 of the new Colt 1860 Army revolvers to Texas for frontier defense. 500 successfully made it past the union naval blockade and were used by Texas Rangers to patrol the frontier. Cimarron Firearms offers an accurate replica of these early McCollough 1860 Army Colts. We'll examine the history and features of this gun. Then we'll see what it can do on the range.

Mike,
As usual I always enjoy your videos. That McCollough Colt looks like a keeper. The full fluted cylinder compliments the good looking 1860 Army.
Thanks for sharing,

A lot of what is taken for engineering fact, if you dig into it far enough, is often just someone's opinion.

That WAS my happy dance.

Didn't I look happy?   ;D

I held just under the 2x4 for the first shot, and I was really surprised when the bird broke, but, after that, the last four were really easy because I knew where to aim.

I thought it would be more difficult. If I'd known how easy it was going to be I wouldn't have built it up so much.
