    Default 100 years

    going through my records, i saw these two turn 100 years old this year.
    i have little doubt that both were refinished at some point.
    the eddystone was probably a government overhaul before storage, while the colt was someones home project... it's a decent job, the barrel should not have been parked.

    i can't recall if i've ever shot the m1917.
    at the time i figured 500 bucks was worth adding it to the collection.
