QDA Colt CC

Thanks for your interest in my work!

To use my Quick Draw weapons: right click a weapon and choose "Add" (not "Wear"...that may replace something else you are wearing).

Choose "hand" weapons, and two of the following : slung, hip, shoulder...L and R, one for each side.. You only actually need "hand" weapons to shoot but, is cool to have holstered weapons too!

No "draw" or "sling/holster" commands needed, no gestures, no chat commands. The gun draws ready to fire as soon as you enter mouselook, and holsters when you exit. Quick Draw! =)

I like to use the mousewheel/scroll wheel to enter mouselook but you may use any method you like (view menu or keyboard or the Camera Controls window mouselook button).

Fires a Linden Damage bullet, no push or cage etc.

Gun ejects empty cases on reload, after 6 rounds.

Also included is a reticule HUD. When worn, it will only appear while in mouselook and place a circle in the center of your screen, around the tiny mouselook crosshairs. If you find the diminutive size of mouselook crosshairs irritating, you may like to use this.

I usually don't include historical info as many who have an interest in firearms here, already know a lot. But these guns are a bit unique.

The advent of metallic cartridges quickly made percussion/cap and ball pistols such as the Colt 1851 Navy, undesirable.

In 1871, an employee from Colt by the name of Charles Richards was awarded a patent for converting Colt percussion models to breech loading cartridge revolvers. The Richards cartridge conversion was an instant success. On July 2nd, 1872, William Mason, another employee from Colt, was awarded a patent for an improvement to the Richards model.

Getting a cartridge conversion was about 1/3rd the cost of buying, say, a Colt 1873 SAA ( the Peacemaker, designed from the start as a metallic cartridge using firearm). Thus, these guns were much more common than the oft featured "Peacemaker" in movies and television.

These models feature the ejector assembly as well; I am not certain how common the ejector assembly was . However, ejector assemblies became commonplace, and maybe were common all along once metallic cartridges were introduced. removing spent cartridges was a vital need to take advantage of the fast reloads metallic cartridges made possible.
