A good friend of mine, and High Road contributor, just posted a video on U-Tube about the 1851 Navy. You all gotta watch it.

Probably just a stupid oversight on my part. I can't remember if there was a '61 in that museum collection; probably there was but I did not have a photo of one in that group, so I decided to give production figures only for those models shown. Sorry, no offense or discrimination intended!Awesome video. One of the best I've seen on the '51. During the video I noticed that during the evolution of Colt revolvers it skipped right over the '61. Also in the slide showing production numbers the '61 wasn't listed. Wonder why? Yeah, I don't own a '51 but I do have a '61 somewhere in Ga.
