@@The2inchGrinch looking cool is definitely important!! Personally, I prefer a peep sight to a red dot. But red dots on these seem to be pretty popular.
Actually there was a 45 Short Colt. The official designation was 45 Colt Government which unlike the Schofield was an actual Colt case except for shorter case length. That would be the round that needed to be distinguish rather than the Schofield which was an entirely different round. See Jim Taylor " The Long and Short of the 45 Colt".
@@SmoknJaysGarage You're welcome. YT won't allow links but Jim Taylor's short article is pretty interesting. I seem to have lost my old copy of Barnes Cartridges of the World but it had an entry for the 45 Colt Government. Apparently not all editions included it.
Could you try a red dot on top of this. It would clear the sights. Plus everyone knows looking cool is more important than accurate shots.

@@mkshffr4936 I couldn't find any record of a short Colt. But I didn't look under the 45 government. Thanks for the comment.
