As promised long ago here is my USFA Cowboy in .45 Colt.  I was going to buy a .44-40/.44 Special this month but IKE had something to say about that.

United States Patent Fire Arms - .357 magnum


This is the gun (not the exact gun) that got them sued by Colt for the use of "Patent" in their name, hence United States Fire Arms. I think that is when they dropped the .357 Magnum chambering also.

[Blackpowder Burn]

Here's my present USFA battery - until the budget recovers sufficiently to purchase more!  2 Premium SAA's in 44-40 and a Lightning Carbine (with rifle buttstock) in 44-40.

[Marshal Halloway]

Thanks, the leather was made by Tombstone Leather out of San Diego.  I have a matching holster for the longer barreled Colt.  I've had the rig for about ten years and I believe Tombstone is now out of business.

Tombstone Leather aka Knights Leather Products got back into manufacturing gun leather earlier this year.

Yeah, I reload - can't afford not to.  I use Bear Creek 41 heeled.  You can contact me at ThreeB.Shooting@att.net if you have more questions.  Be happy to jaw.

Which Model of USFA is most popular or used? And how about Bbl. length? I am new here and don't know which way to go. Any info would be most helpful. Craig

[Charlie Bison]

Wowser, good looking pistola Rawhide!

My new SAA

[Johnny McCrae]

Here are pictures of my USFA. This was my first attempt at making Walnut grips and and fitting them to a pistol. I'm in the process of making another set that will fit better.

[Capt. John Fitzgerald]

Johnny,
For a first attempt, those look pretty good!

Look good to me, Johnny. Real nice grain to them.

I think the picture says it all. A perfect match

Can't wait to see mine!

 :)Rawhide, or anyone that knows, I have a Rodeo II from Longhunter and am getting a 12-22 soon. My question is can I switch the grips? The white ones I just saw on the nickel revolver I just saw look great.

[Scott Yancey]

Here's a few new additions I picked up recently, thought you might enjoy. The engraved SAA and 1911 .45 I found used and the Super 38 was on super sale, new.

[Grogan]

I have my father's "Civilian" pre-WW-II 1911 Colt in .45 ACP.

There's some features of the original 1911s that I really like.

For my hand the long Trigger and Straight Housing I really like.

The wide, checkered Hammer is nice.

However the original pattern sights leave a LOT to be desired.

[Buck Stinson]

This is my 4 3/4" in .44-40.

[Skeeter Lewis]

Nice. Now who made that rig, Buck? That guy may have a future in leather working.....
