cartridge. It was dropped years ago. I have customers all the time think 45 Colt means the 45 ACP. A couple of years back Jim Taylor sent me a pic of a 45 short colt and the box it came in but I lost it when my site was hacked and a lot of pictures erased.

Which is correct 45 Colt or 45 Long Colt? (nm) - bigboar, 2019-06-07, 10:45
