Colt only made TWO really good pistols...The Single action Army. and the 1911...End of discussion...NO! I am not biased..
It is noted that Remington with their "Stronger" solid frame revolver on which the cylinder was much easier & quicker to interchange did not begin to encroach on Colt production during the "War" until a major fire at Colt's greatly curtailed production. a lot of men in both Blue & Gray whose lives depended upon their 1851 & 1860 Colts would likely disagree with you & with good reason I might add.
