Colt Single Action Buntline Scout 22 LR -What Is It worth - 12/20/09 02:50 PM
Hi:
I'm new to the forum.
I have a Colt Single Action Buntline Scout 22 LR pistol and just wondered what it was worth?
It was passed on to me by my favorite uncle.
There is a story with it.
He used to practice quick drawing the pistol at a range in San Antonio. One day he drew, but pulled the trigger too soon. Shot himself in the knee. I was about 7 at the time and the local TV did a piece on it calling him "Quick Draw McGraw".
Oddly enough I saw it on the News and asked my mom if that was my uncle. Yep !!
He was teased about it for 0ver 50 years. He carried the lead in his knee all that time. Couldn't get it out.
He was a great guy !!
Sorry to be so long winded !!
