This is the public release.

So Othais was able to get ahold of one more reference source, specifically The Gun Report, May 1972 Edition, U.S. Naval Martial Sidearms, 1775-1875, Part 3: The "UDC" and Guert Ganesvoort by A. W. Lindert, and came across some clarifying info regarding one of the US Navy contracts.  Starting at timestamp 50:14, there is an additional 1 minute 30 seconds of details squeezed in there.  Enjoy!

I just got around to try getting those Ballistol Commemoratives for myself and a friend for their birthday and they're out of stock. Would you please pass along to Ballistol that there is still demand for these retro bottles?

But do we get a "civil war were declared" bit?

I know I should've watched/commented to this when it was released to patrons, but either I don't understand your southern dialect or maybe you misspoke at 42:13. Is it just me, or do I hear "...metallurgical testing in the 1950's..."? Did Colt have some form of time travel back then? ;)

BTW- I've never been much of a wheel gun guy, but I've found this series fascinating. Keep it up, Love this!
