We got trapped in the details again 
We wouldn’t be Americans without opposing views would we?

without opposition where is the challenge. If not fatally flawed a alternate viewpoint can sometimes better another opinion

Opposition?
Oh, like Elmer and Jack or “little Phil Sharp”? I
got it.
And “Little Phil Sharp” was a quote from Elmer.

I just went to the colt forum and it is stated by them that the term “long colt” was started in the 1880’s to differentiate the differences in all the various.45 caliber cartridges.
That’s 19 years before Elmer was even born let alone started writing.
Hmmm?

What length of barrel on that hog leg ? Honestly @BryanAustin is entitled to his view as he sees it . It doesn’t hurt anything to have ones own views We are all brothers in arms the opposition is out there 
So lets not get to feuding thanks fellas

I agree but it was stated that Elmer was the one responsible for the term “long colt” when after doing a very simple search online and in my very old literature it was determined to be very incorrect.

Yes, I remember coming across the very thing probably 20 yrs. Ago. It has been talked about many times on other forums. @ramprage40 I applaud you for getting down to brass tacks and searching for the facts.
Facts are Facts . I was probably guilty of using that terminology as a youngin’ also. Time and research has cleared up that for me as well.
