I posted this on the Colt forum, but thought it worth sharing here also.
A family portrait of almost a complete set of 2nd gen standard Blackpowders. Missing is an 1860 fluted and a Baby Dragoon. The Walker and the 1849 pocket are actually 3rd gens, but their finish almost equals the "C" series of the 2nd gens. I'm letting the 1849 pocket model fill in for the baby Dragoon. I haven't convinced myself that I need the two missing models since I don't care for the look or design of either. The implements are also Colt marked.
The Walker is in the center--then starting with the upper right pistol and going clockwise. A 1st model Dragoon, 2nd model Dragoon, 3rd model Dragoon, 1851 Navy, 1849 Pocket at bottom, 1862 pocket Police, 1862 pocket Navy, 1861 Navy, and 1860 Army
Cheers
