Yeah, it certainly seems out of place.

I have one though, the 6" with both cylinders. It's a great little plinker for the $$$

Hey, I hijacked the mans thread, for that I sincerely apologize for my bad manners ....
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Years ago I had a colt single action .22 don't recall the barrel length, maybe six inches, but it was a fine looking and shooting .22
Pistol, why I got rid of it I don't remember, like all the good firearms I've owned and sold or traded I kick myself in the arse when I see them again for sale for twice what I paid for it ...dum not smart enuff to be dumb :roll: :roll: :roll:

if you guys have never played with one or shot one, they are pretty much junk, made of cheap material lots of zinc, similar to pot metal, sure lifetime warranty, but parts are easily broken and not always covered....might look into other options for new shooters....Ive got one here thats 20 + years old and the hand that rotates the cylinder no longer an obtainable part, so its basically a wall hanger

Well, I don't have anything to say, you've done the best you could. You really have, the best you could. You can't expect to win em all. But, I want to tell you something I've kept to myself through these years. I was in the war myself, medical corps. I was on late duty one night when they brought in a badly wounded pilot from one of the raids. He could barely talk. He looked at me and said, "The odds were against us up there, but we went in anyway, I'm glad the Captain made the right decision." The pilot's name was George Zip.

I just installed a new toilet and after the first flush, I looked at my wife and said "Wow, it sounds like a Ferguson".

Being a wife, she missed the reference and looked at me like I was stupid.

I actually did get a new toilet for Christmas. Not gift wrapped.
