Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Lightning Carbine or Colt Lightning Rifle was a slide-action (pump-action) rifle manufactured by Colt from 1884 until 1904 and was originally chambered in .44-40 caliber. Colt eventually made the Lightning Rifle in three different frame sizes, to accommodate a wide range of cartridges, from .22 Short caliber and .38-40 to .50-95 Express. Its profile resembles the pump-action rimfire rifles made by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company and Remington Arms. The Lightning saw use as a sporting arm in America and was adopted for use by the San Francisco Police Department, but was never as popular or as reliable as the various lever-action rifles of its day.
As for the C45, Taurus revived the Lightning design in 2005. The guns came with hardwood stocks and a plastic forearm pump. Chamberings included .45 Colt and .357 Mag/.38 Spl. The metalwork came in three flavors: highly polished stainless, blued, or a color-case-hardened affair. Sadly, production ceased in 2010, but these guns still pop up from time to time on the used market and in cowboy-action shooting.
