Bought the Buntline Special (.45 Colt)

Folks:

Made around 1982, according to the serial number. Gorgeous condition, CC and blueing -- an obvious safe queen.

Cleverly left my .45 ammo at home, but the shop loaned me 5 rounds to put through it at their indoor range. At 15 yards, printed tight but a little low probably due to the fact that the bullets were 225 grainers, not the typical 250.

Will put more rounds through it next Saturday.

Oh, I noticed that the end sticker on the box misspells Buntline as "Buntiline." Interesting typo.
