Very neat. Are those the original front sights with the orange paint?

I'm not to familiar with old wheel guns..

Looks like a pricey set tho, being colt and all.. thanks for sharing!

Safe queens or going to shoot them?

Awesome set (y)

nice pickup! especially hard to find in CA and impossible to import because the barrel is too short to qualify for single action exemption.

I've watched the value of the snake eyes set increase dramatically over the past few years. A set just sold at RIA for nearly $11K. Most collectors think this set will reach $15K in the next few years.

congrats!

I cant shoot these. They are an investment.

Thanks!! I have been watching them go up in price for a while and thought i would never own a set. I really lucked out.

Range report please!

And I thought the guy at a Utah gunshow was crazy for asking $5700+ for an unfired set of Snake Eyes just like that. That was 8 years ago.
