Other than me buying it 20 years ago Ive got nothing! A friend of mine is a colt collector and he gave me the name of the person at colt that is in charge of finding the history of peoples firearms, and It seems that at some time in colts history there was a disaster at the location of all their records and paper work was lost, and mine was included. They would have been able to tell me who it was made for, when and where it was shipped, so the gun is a mystery. There were a number of colt lightnings made in various calibers, but the baby was made lighter than the rest and in fewer numbers, and this one is from the mid 1880s making it a great find!
Im always making changes and last night I made a few a took a new shot, my colt friend is going to give me a couple 44-40 that I will photo and add in this weekend.
Thanks Guys for the compliments of the gun
