An almost old, new to me

Nice! Nothing like finding a gun from your youth!

Actually my friend, that's not a Colt Frontier,,,
It a Colt Frontier Scout

The Colt Frontier had a full size frame,,,
The Frontier Scout has a somewhat smaller frame.

I own one exactly like yours,,,
She's a superb shooter.

That is correct.

Frontier Sixshooter was the only Single Action Army that Colt gave a specific name to. The Frontier Sixshooter was only chambered for 44-40.

But it is certainly nice that you found a nice Frontier Scout from your youth.

My father purchased one similar in the 70's. It wasn't two tone though. Had a color case hardened frame as I recall. Black plastic grips. I could have had it, but chose his combat commander instead.

Super nice looking Colt Frontier .22. I use to have a couple of the later steel frame New Frontier .22s; the ones with the color case hardened frame and the adjustable rear sight. Man, I loved those little .22s (especially with the 4 1/4" barrel); should have held on to one but something new always caught my eye so away they went in trade.

I had one of those, bought as soon as they were available. Dandy squirrel gun, and deadly on cottonmouths!

I have the blued Frontier Scout, 1963 vintage so it’s a few years younger than me.

Is the frame on this gun cast zinc alloy (Zamak?) or aluminum? If it's Zamak, it is in wonderful shape. I mean, it looks great for any material, but especially for zinc, which often does not seem to age well.

Very nice find MMC SRET. These guns seem under-appreciated.
