Pietta has made some fine doubles as well. 7# or a little under and come up nicely.

They also got weird with SAA’s from time to time, made a Forehand & Wadsworth replica, a short barreled .410/.45.

I’ve heard both ways. Also that the parts were rough castings finished by USFA. In any event given the quality of the SAA’s these folks produced I would really like a shot at one.

USFA… I have never seen on in the wild but if I ever cross paths with an 1860, I’m gonna buy it so fast my head will spin…

Sprue misplaced most likely. It happens every so often… hornady swaged ball are notorious for air pockets…

Track of the Wolf and others have plenty of suitable sights fore and aft and as long as you’re cutting dovetails, two are not much harder than one…

I would believe that. I‘m guessing one of the most difficult aspects of publishing a book is deciding where to stop. I’ll be over here waiting patiently for the second edition…

Reading the book now Gary. Excellent read so far.

Well ok but dang… that’s just ugly!

Like this…

They did quite a bit of the engraving early on. Navy Arms sold a bunch of engraved Ubertis. That sure is a beauty. Noticed the file tracks on the arbor, is it… short?

BTW, is Goex producing OE yet? I have seen the other stuff available.

I have used a lot of GOEX over the years. Live in the hinterlands, so I drove either 40 miles to Eagle, ( RIP Al), 35 miles to Glenwood (RIP Dusty) a hundred miles to Leadville (Bill Copper RIP) or 40 miles to Craig, they all stocked GOEX. I honestly didn’t know anyone else made black powder...

Yes, more powerful and as clean as smokeless apparently. Swiss 3 and 4f are all I need…

Bust? Like break apart or something?

Can’t remember the last time I’ve had a slow fire let alone a misfire in a percussion revolver. These things might be useful if you want to use Blackhorn or something like that. Or if you can’t find caps I suppose.

She’s a beast!

This might represent the Hazard cartridge from the 1860’s…

Truer words have never been spoken! My gosh that’s a beautiful revolver!
