Colt Frontier Scout '62 Single Action 22 Magnum Revolver

More than half a century ago, Colt introduced a new twist on an old favorite: A genuine Colt single action revolver, made with modern materials and chambered for 22 rimfire cartridges. And while it was obviously meant by Colt to compete with the Ruger Single Six, which was capitalizing on the public's love for Colt's old-timey products, it never quite did so.

Gun writers showered Bill Ruger with praise, shooters flocked to his products, and Colt moved on. In the end we are left with a nice, handy little popper that spells C-O-L-T with every cocking of the hammer, and doesn't break the bank by demanding high-dollar ammo.
