Handguns Descriptions

Colt Prototype 1860

Rare Early Colt Factory Prototype Model 1860 Army Revolver Converted to Metallic Cartridge. Serial no. 170997, .44 rimfire caliber, 8-inch barrel, the top marked: -ADDRESS COL. SAML COLT NEW-YORK U.S. AMERICA. Blued finish. In-the-white six-shot breech-loading cylinder. Experimental conversion ring. Varnished walnut grips. The breech loading conversion represents a first departure from the front-loading Thuer conversions. One chamber of No. 170997 was countersunk to accommodate the cartridge's rimmed breech. That countersunk chamber is considered to have been an experimental procedure, abandoned when realizing that to countersink each chamber was not possible, due to the overlapping of each cartridge rim and therefore each cartridge's chamber...thus, first, the circumference of the cylinder had to be enlarged.

Glock 23

The G17 Gen5 features a no finger grooved, multiple backstrapped, rough textured frame with hundreds of miniature spikes which results in remarkable traction for extreme environments and gloved operators. The frame also features a smooth trigger, reversible mag release, and ambidextrous slide stop. The magazine comes with a floor plate which is extended at the front for faster magazine change, and a orange follower, while the flared mag-well makes it easier to funnel the magazine into the mag-well. Glock\'s nDLC finish provides a tougher, more durable protection against corrosion and scratching. The Glock Marksman barrel features a barrel rifling which delivers improved accuracy. his Glock Gen5 model has AmeriGlo night sights (green with orange outline front and green rear) and a 10-round capacity.
