So one deck I've tried to get of the ground for a while now is Cho with boxing gloves and a weapon, bandolier style, My logic was always that cho often runs out of steam given each card in his deck basically only kills one enemy, adding a gun (or other reliable weapon) would give much more gas, the issue I always run into is this:

I have a .45 in play with 3 ammo, I then draw boxing gloves, what do?

A) If I keep the gun in play I lose out on the efficiency of getting draws when I kill.

B) If I play the boxing gloves (without waiting for bandolier) I lose three bullets that my deck has no way of getting back and sacrifice total killing power.

Now my collection has the colt (2), unlimited bullets on a card that can return to hand at any time, I think it solves both issues instantly to the point of probably just not bothering with bandolier at all.

And this probably works with any two handed big weapon, play the colt as soon as you can, when you need to play your big "thingie" you just bounce the colt, then you wait till you run out of ammo/spirit cards in your deck and just replay it.

what if you get near the game and you aren't out of spirit cards/ammo, well then, this card just became an overpower, and that's the worst it can ever be, which to me seems like a bargain for a card subclass characters can take.

The Cho running out of steam problem is one that I've heard of often, but I've never experienced it in my own runs as Natcho. If basically every card in your deck is a cantrip, a spirit, or an asset, he ends up in a state where every card in his deck is a cantrip or a spirit, and thus will never run out. — suika · 9389
If you are gonna run Cho with Bandolier, may as well go all in and run him with Bandolier 2 and 2 sets of boxing gloves :-P when you get 9 fight while fighting and 2 tutors per enemy killed :-P — NarkasisBroon · 10
Man, I legit forgot this cards exists. It's definitely interesting, but it suffers from the same issues that many level 1-3 weapons do: mid-range weapons are a luxury that most decks can't afford. As far as Cho with bandolier, I usually pick survival knife as my third weapon. Upgrading that to level 2 feels a lot more valuable to me than upgrading this. — SGPrometheus · 803
It's really clever to combine this with Boxing Gloves/Bandolier as it gets around a significant weakness of this card, namely its lack of Combat bonus (pretty bad for an XP weapon.) But I have to think it would be better just to run a stronger weapon alongside them. — CaiusDrewart · 3119
I'm just not big on spending overall 5 resources (or 8 if the scenario goes that long) for what amounts to a less risky Knuckleduster. Granted, they're not upfront, which is a big deal, but still. I think the og Colt is a fine choice in high commit decks, but I don't see myself upgrading to this over Machete if I am going to take a mid-XP weapon. — StyxTBeuford · 12985
again, I think every single post misses the point, if you run colt (2) you don't need bandolier at all, so if your so dead set on comparing it to other card that don't do the same thing then compare it to bandolier. — Zerogrim · 292
I’m mostly comparing it to melee weapons because that’s kind of how I think of both versions of Colt, as it’s a lot of uses but with a small boost. — StyxTBeuford · 12985
I think I'd rather have a ranged option in the form of a Colt(2) than another melee weapon due to some interactions that enemies could provide. — D'Card · 1

Does anyone know what to do if you return it to your hand with upgrades attached? do you also return the attachments or discard them? Im thinking about a gun build with this with reliable and well prepared but dont know what to do when im "reloading"

The attachments will all discard. The card you’ll need to add is Well-Maintained for the deck idea you’re considering. — Holy Outlaw · 267

There's Arkham Facebook group which is perfect fit for such questions. Consider joining. — bugiel_marek · 21
Good idea, yeah. There’s also the Arkham Horror forum on BoardGameGeek, which I highly recommend. — Holy Outlaw · 267
I don't know if well-maintained would work here though - it's reaction triggers specifically on discard. — Olimarrex · 1
