Had unknown to me good look'n woman all over me at the range yesterday

[Brokenbear]

Cause I was showing her husband and two sons how to load and shoot an 1849 Colt Pocket Model ...she was so appreciative ...and compassionate too! ...did I say good looking? ....she saw me struggling with my BIG fingers trying to get spent caps off of the nipples and she said "Sweetie" (that would be me) ...you just hold up a minuet ..I'll be right back ...

Low and behold she presented me with her eye brow plucking tweezers she had fetched from her car!!!!

Now in my house ..the fastest way to get the boom lowered on a fella is to use the "Bosses" tweezers or scissors UNLESS she is the one operating them and doing so on approved material and in an approved manner

Pluck'n caps off of an 1849 genuine Colt I'm pretty sure won't quite measure up!!!

I said Mamm I'm pretty sure these pluck'in do dads won't be any count if I do as you want ...she says they are yours so do what you want!!!

You guys gotta get you a pair ..just slid'em pointy end down over the nipple in front of the spent cap and then tilt the handle slightly forward and the rascal pops off like it's spring loaded

BONUS: today I was at the farm shooting my new 1862 Police and I was having cocking resistance which turned out to be me not getting all the led rings out (that's on me) ..but as I am thinking of what tool I had with me and the
"M1A1 Genuine Cap Plucker" made my day!

I'm old at black powder but new at revolvers ...so I'm sure you revolver shooters of long standing know all about this but it may help another new to revolvers

***** like me

Be safe out there ..especially the 4th

That’s just wrong! Can you see old Wild Bill with a pink dodad picking at his revolvers?
But I might get me one and paint it black (manly style) then hide it in my waist band.

Seems like a
Small price to pay
To get all that

Perhaps that's why his nick name was WILD BILL

Forget the pistol; I'd like a few pictures of the lady!

Pink used to be a man’s color.
Vikings loved it and pink shirts was a common trade item to the original rendezvous

Sorry I got the pictures out of order ..the first pic is an Uberti/Taylor 1862 Police that I shot for the first time today and very pleased as it is ONLY 8 " high at 25 yards

The 1849 Colt Pocket is driving me nuts (it is new as in 3 weeks) as it is like 2 1/2 feet high at 25 yards so it is going to take some ingenuity to get me to where I can actually hit an aimed shot without modifying it which I do not wish to do ..although it is a 3rd generation less than 50 years old is still says Colt ..I know some say 3rd Generations not a Colt but the same guy (I am told) was the boss on Gen II for Colt and Gen III with his own $$ and is the brains and $$ behind Henry Arms or again so I am told (is that an unmentionable?)

here is my original vintage Colt 1849 Pocket which I cleaned up...

 

[Brokenbear]

ditto !

JT ..They say no pictures it didn't happen ..well I've no pictures ...cept in my head ..Think Sophia Loren about 5 years past prime ..mahogany/ Auburn hair, hazel almond shaped eyes and va-varoom for the rest of her 5'6" stature ...she walked kinda regal and had a hint of the Carolina's or Georgia sound but sorta burried like having been away from her upbringing for quite awhile ..

Now I don't want you all to think I was infatuated with this lady ...it's just my 16 years of law enforcement that kinda kicks in when you meet some one new ..you know ..you just remember "stuff"

I will say this ...If I swung everything she did when she walked ...I'd be at the chiropractor now instead of jawing about this new "tool" I have tried to introduce to you pack of wolves

Until you get a grip

Good place to meet someone with like interests! Havrun into a few myself. Nothing gets someone's attention like a cloud of smoke whenever you shoot your gun.

I got to say I’m proud that a cutie was at the range. We need more, and not for aesthetic reasons
