It’s great to hear that you appreciate the quality of the Classicballistx cylinder and we're all fortunate that he's still making them available.

Another happy Classicballistix user, also just got another pair for my ROA's on Gunbroker used but in very good condition and they are the cat's meow, I can now shoot 48 rounds of B/P without reloading!!

here's my pair

Thanks, I should have included my 32 H&R Single Six.

Out of curiosity, how much do new or used spare cylinders go for on an ROA? Was thinking that spare parts for those guns must be expensive since they are not made anymore. Always been intrigued by the ROA, especially some of the ones pictured in this thread.
Thanks.

There is one on eBay that is $180.00(approx.) . It is an aftermarket part and it is new. Could maybe find one cheaper by searching the web.

THR member Classicballistx has a website that sells them to ROA Club members at a $25 discount.
Their regular starting price is $259.95 before the discount. --->>> http://classicballistx.com
Henry Anvil mentioned buying one on page 127 of this thread.
They have slightly deeper chambers and are made with premium steel.


IIRC new or like new used factory ROA cylinders had a similar price of around $200 - $250.
Perhaps their prices have come down since another manufacturer started selling them on eBay for $180, but the steel isn't quite the same as the original factory part.

Old South Firearms lists a new aftermarket ROA cylinder for $155 but it must be backordered. --->>> http://www.oldsouthfirearms.com/RugerOldArmyUpgradeandReplacementCylinder.aspx

Good to know, thanks.
