Any Replica Colt 1860 Centaures out there?
 

A Centaure is a Belgium made replica Colt 1860 black powder pistol. If any of you have one or for sale. Give me a shout. It does not have to be in working condition.

Thanks.

There are many 1860 replicas out there, but Centaure is what I am looking for.
 

There are many 1860 replicas out there, but Centaure is what I am looking for. They were made in the 1960's and only 20k were made. They were made in Belgium and under a patent from Colt, meaning that they are using parts that could be interchangeable with the originals.

Thanks, but those are not Centaure's, nice though.

Sorry. Does Centaure refer to the Belgian manufacturer?

I have one.

you may already know of this site http://www.1960nma.org/

Yes, the Centaures are made in Belgium. Check out the site that JTecalo postes, I am member number 151, signed up just today. Worth reading about if you are a collector of fine antique pistols. Thanks.

Thanks Jim,
Yes, a fun website created in Europe, for Black Powder enthusiast there.

Care to post a photo of your Centaure ? Any for sale?

Bookmarked and I'll check it out when I have time. It's always good to find a new forum to look over; thanks.
OP - I'd never heard of these particular reproduction revolvers before -- good luck on your search.
