Nice, and almost there. I have a couple of the BKH45 but unfortunately, they all were shipped in 1971. I always have my eye out for them for you.
I know you do! Thanks Troy!

Just 2 more variations to go! 
VERY nice set of 4 there. The brassies are hard to find!

I'm a sucker for the OM .45's myself.
I did a display of them at the OGCA/ROCS show a few years back. All 6 variations. I'd add a few pics,, but I've had a computer crash,, and I'm still trying to recover pictures somewhat. I'm so computer stupid,, that I can't figure out how to get them out of "the cloud" & onto my computer.
Update; I finally figured out how to find the picture. This wasn't done to take away from the OP,, but instead to show the 6 variations, AND for me to try to figure out the new picture posting thing on this new computer.
Getting OM .45's is a SWEET thing for anybody out there. TATERARK has a heck of a GREAT selection.
As noted,, the OM .45's were only made for approximately 3 years,, and in fewer numbers than the .44 FT's. Yet the .44's FT's seem to get more attention by many. Oh well,,,,,, their loss!

A very nice start to a great collection.
A pile of 45s old and new in Colt 45, 45ACP, and 45 BP, and FT 357s converted to 45 Colt
These are called 44s but are 45s by today's standards.

I much prefer the .45 Colt cartridge to the .44 and obviously love the Old Models. I sold all my .45 Colt stuff but I'd buy more tools and molds again if I found a local deal on any three screw .45.
