Limited edition Variation Factory box to reflect grip change
We were pleased to see TALO’s Night Defender in a Combat Hanguns Magazine article By Charlie Cutshaw. Thank you for that fine article Charlie. He ends the article by saying he liked the gun well enough to buy it and carry it every day. Wow. That’s a recommendation! A number of folks are looking for the gun on the site and not finding it. We apologize. The site needs a lot of work. We’ll try to get it up to date.
About 800 Night Defenders have been shipped. There are a few more planned for December.
About 200 more Ghost Commanders ship next week.
We have a limited variation on the Colt 1970MA that will ship soon. It sports a knockout new grip.
There is other news regarding a TALO alliance with Wiley Clapp and some very cool performance based guns in the works. Look for TALO’s first Wiley enhanced gun to be a Colt! Perhaps a SHOT show peak at that colaberation.
Plenty of other stuff in the works. I am trying to do a mass mailing with some special offers or info to those folks who have bothered to sign up for the mailing list.
TALO really appreciates your input.
How can it be that there are no posts here since June? No excuse for this!
The year has been interesting. Demand in every quarter of the business is great but sometimes the factories are too busy to talk about special projects. We don’t take it personnally but it happens. The business is returning more to “normal” these days. We have a number a projects in the works.
The Ruger EZ Vaquero has been produced very slowly…maybe we made 300 so far.
The Colt Dragon 1980XSEDDG .45 is being made now. 1 of 400.
Ruger is starting to produce their 60th Anniversary MKIII’s Single Sixes and Vaquero. There will be 3000 Blue and Stainless MKIII’s , 750 Single Sixes in 2 barrel lengths, and 400 Vaqueros in Blue & SS. There is a 1/2 color advertisement in the Nov. 2009 Amer Rifleman.
News is a Colt Ghost Light Weight Stainless Commander XSE with Novak Ghost rear and green fiber optic fronts in the works Colt O4680XSENCC (special numbers, grips, sights)

Colt Ghost LW Commander .45 - sights by Novak
We will bring the sight up to date and keep it current. There is a new mass email program being put into place to send to folks who want to stay current.
We will offer collectors a chance to buy some cases and lord knows what else we have cluttering up the office.
I appologise to all collectors or interested persons who have checked this blog to see no updates.
Thank you for your support.

1911A1 Limited .45
This shows the engraving pattern. We looked for Colonial American themes. Originally we were going to make a variation in tones for both the eagle & the snake but decided it detracted.
