Sigh… so much potential. That is all I could think of when the movie wrapped up. A high concept, an R-rating, all you need to make a classic nature-run-amok exploitation B-movie. Instead, we had an hour and a half wasted. No one likes this kind of movie more than me. No one wanted to likeContinue reading “Cocaine Bear”

Colt Combat Elite ( 2nd Generation)
The name “Combat Elite” is nothing new to most Colt fans or anyone who is old enough to remember. Initially it was an upgraded government model tweaked for carry with fighting more in mind. Over the years it developed into a two tone gun with adjustable sights much like the Gold Cup of the day. Continue reading “Colt Combat Elite ( 2nd Generation)”
M1860 Colt
Today’s pictures don’t come from Karl, they come from friend Walter. A martially marked Colt M1860, made in 1863. This one still has a good deal of rifling left, and even traces of the cylinder engraving. Lock up and timing are excellent. The slot for the wedge has been cut, so it allows a littleContinue reading “M1860 Colt”

The Ultimate Hi-power?
Today’s post comes from our pals over at progunmillennial In my opinion, new production versions of classic cars are just about the coolest thing on four wheels. Classic looks with modern technology are a powerful combination. Cars like the Morgan +6, the Caterham R500, and the Singer 911 (I’d also include the Weismann GT toContinue reading “The Ultimate Hi-power?”

Ted Yost Custom Colt
Pistol_purview I get asked not infrequently what is my favorite 1911. That’s a tough question to answer. Scratch that, it’s an impossible question to answer. Some 1911s are rare and cloaked in soul, but executed poorly by today’s standards (Swenson). Some 1911s are engineered to burn, with a premium on accuracy, but they are purposeContinue reading “Ted Yost Custom Colt”
