I got a new 5" EXcelerator coil for my MXT Pro and went on a quick hunt at a site that i've found some lead at about 2 miles west of the Resaca battlefield. To date, I've found some melted lead and two beat up minie balls but thats it for the Civil War era find. I was more interested in just trying out the new coil as i only had about 30 minutes when on the third hole, I dug this Colt brass trigger frame. The serial number is 91003. Best i can tell, its either from a model 1849 colt pocket .36 or a 1860 army. Can anyone help in IDing it? The property owner told me that when he plowed the field once, he found a octagon pistol barrel, but gave it to a friend.
Thanks.
Thanks.
