[QUOTE="Earl Brill, post: 581163, member: 10336"]A collector wants to sell me those 2 Colt 44 percussion revolvers- Sheriff & Navy, albeit they are not American/British made like the originals. Both barrels are inscribed with the label "Black powder only- Made in Italy". From what I can deduce, they were both designed to shoot, and follow the same patent & design by Colt. Moreover, they bear die markings of several armories & are embossed with serial numbers. The collector wants about 600$ for each (The ""Colt"" Navy is almost mint in box). Is it worth the investment? Cheers.
