In fact, I wish my gunsmith buddy would get my repaired so I could use it on a daily basis.<br /><br />Even better, I've tried to convince certain Colt reps to bring the darn thing back. The 1903 Hammerless is simply a WONDERFUL little pistol. Who cares if it's a pea-shooter?<br /><br />All The Best,<br />Frank W. JamesFrank W.
