OT - Colt Frontier 22lr
Well decided to fill the niche of no .22lr in my stable for my BD. Picked this one up. Before it comes home to me, it is going straight to nutmeg for some ivory grips and an action job. Mikey is all smiles!!!

Mike,
Congratulations on your BD choice.
I had one of those many summers ago. Wish I still had it. Didn't need anything done to it and like a fool it went somewhere for something else.

Very nice Colt, Mike!
Where do you get ivory grips these days? Is it real ivory or ivoroid? Do you have a website? Thanks

Jim at Nutmeg did action jobs & put ivories on both my
Colt SAA as well as my New Frontier.
He does awesome work.

Re: OT - Colt Frontier 22lr
Have one of these in a 5 1/2" barrel. Excellent firearm. Am looking for a .22 magnum cylinder for mine.
Re: OT - Colt Frontier 22lr
Victor, Mike gave you the website where this one is going. Action job and real elephant ivory for $625. One piece ivory grips no extra charge. Really a nice guy to work with. 2 week turn around.

They are pretty good little revolvers. Mine seems to really like the 22Mags. Pretty much dot on. A keeper.
