New Colt in the herd...........

Just added this one. A Colt Lightning rifle (small frame) in .22 cal. It will load and shoot both .22 shorts and .22 longs but not .22 long rifle (action is too short). It was restored about 35 - 40 years ago, reblued and the barrel relined. The guy that I got it from said that the gentleman he bought it from had the work done by Doug Turnbull. No proof, but the quality of the work is certainly up to his standards! Some pictures. Oh, yes, made in 1900 so it is 114 years old!
