to help rebuild a destroyed Church in Mozambique.
I am offering this for sale. I have not been shooting black powder in awhile and I am getting older, I think I will sell a few guns that someone else can enjoy and raise some money to help rebuild a church that was destroyed by a cyclone. This is in the village of Mieze where I worked for six years. These folks are good friends of mine and are having a hard time of it.

The Church Now
I bought this gun a few years ago. After I shot it awhile I started messing with it. The first thing I did was "antique" it. I removed the blueing and the finish on the stocks. Later on I cut a dovetail and put a fairly decent front sight on it and opened the notch in the hammer. The front sight is my copy of the front sight on Wild Bill's 1851 that is in the Cody Museum. Then I reshaped the trigger to more like the original. The factory nipples have been replaced with Slix Shot nipples.
It comes with a home-made loading stand and a kit to make paper cartridges (both 36 and 44).
Make me an offer. PM me or use this colt.tnql6@passinbox.com
That is an alias email that I can delete if the bots pick it up and I start getting spammed. I will answer from my normal email.
The photos were taken before I changed the front sight and worked on the trigger
