    Percussion Cap Information

    I find that with all the information sporadically available about different percussion caps, I have not found a source that puts it all together in one spot. This may not cover everything available, but it suits my interests very well. Enjoy! Regards, Jim

    ROA With Distinction

    First, I really like the Ruger Old Army revolvers. I have never owned one due to the prices they command these days, so I have not paid a lot of attention to the variations that have been produced. A while back I came across photos of a very special ROA, nothing like I have ever seen before...

    1849 Pocket .31 Italian Cased Set

    I found this on GB yesterday. It is listed as a "Replica 1898 Pocket Pistol Set In Felt Lined Wooden Case". This is a consignment sale. I asked if he had any other info about them and he replied in the negative, not even serial numbers. IMO, they are not early ASM revolver because the trigger...

    Schneider & Glassick #25 ?

    I found a thread about a possible Schneider & Glassick SN 25 in an online thread a couple of years ago and saved the photos but alas, not the link. I think it is a very good candidate for an original revolver. The backstrap is engraved Capt. Edward A. Palfrey C.S. 1862 in period script. I have a...

    The Schneider & Glassick SN 25

    I have long been interested in the scarcity of the S&G revolver in these modern days. It is believed that no more than a few dozen were produced, if that. There are only three documented S&G revolvers extant in the present day, two are brass-framed .36 caliber with octagonal barrels (SN 6 and...

    Part Round/Part Octagon Barrels

    I am creating this thread in response to a question from Mr. Here Comes The Sun on another thread. First, I am a Pietta 1851 Navy .36 "type" collector and parts changer. By that I mean that I try to create Confederate revolvers that Pietta does not market presently (and probably never will do...

    Pietta 1860 Army With Shoulder Stock

    Found this one on GB today. Very nicely figured wood (stock and grips) but just slightly dinged up. If that is a Pietta stock it is better wood than is usually present on the ones sold by EMF. J-hook housing length and J-hook length correct for the 1860 Army gripframe. Datecode BH/1996. Wish I...

    Colt 1851 Navy 2nd Model Factory Engraved Cased Set

    Unlike the $200K guns that Mr. Kibbey has posted, these are "much" more affordable.;) https://www.proxibid.com/Firearms-Military-Artifacts/Firearms/Pair-of-Factory-Engraved-Colt-Model-1851-Navy-Revolvers/lotInformation/53208370 Don't I wish. Regards, Jim

    R. G. Wilson Revolver

    I would like to pick your collective brains for more information about this revolver. It is a "copy" of a Colt 1860 Army .44 that was entirely handmade by a machinist/gunsmith R. G. Wilson, Fulton MI in the early 1960's. It is serial number 7 with a total of only ten revolvers like this...

    The George Todd Revolver

    I am looking for additional information on this gun. George Todd was a small gunmaker in Austin TX from 1856-1861 and produced copies of the Colt 1851 Navy .36 prior to the ACW. My information about him and his guns is relegated to Flayderman's Guide and "Confederate Handguns" (Albaugh, et al...

    ASM 1860 Army 4 Screw Replacements

    I have an ASM 1860 Army 4-screw cut for shoulder stock (BC/1993). I would like to know what the thread size is of the 4th screw(s). I would like to find a couple of set screws to temp replace them for shooting purposes as the protruding 4th screw really is a hinderance with my trigger finger. I...

    ASM (1965?) 2nd Model Dragoon: Unusual?

    I found this on Ebay this morning. Seller has for auction an Armi San Marco 2nd Model Dragoon, starting bid $200 with no bids. The 4 photos provided do not show the date code (insofar as I can see). It is unusual (to me) as the wedge, wedge screw, and load lever pivot screw enter from the right...

    Uberti Whitneyville Dragoon To Walker Conversion

    To all: I have a new Uberti Whitneyville Hartford Dragoon and am contemplating ordering parts from either Taylor's or VTI to create an Uberti Walker as a parts swap. I have priced out all of the parts from both outfits and am convinced that I would be better off just buying new Uberti Walker...

    Uberti Whitneyville Dragoon

    Hello to all! I am looking for information about a certain "flavor" of this revolver. The Uberti USA site shows the revolver with only the end of the hammer screw showing on the right side of the frame, whereas the trigger and bolt screw ends do not show, telling me that they are in "blind"...

    Traditions Pietta 1851 Navy Steel

    If anyone is interested in one or more, Old South Firearms has recently acquired 9 in stock after being out of stock for a few months. I bought one last fall and it may have been the last one in their inventory then. Decent price, and I wholly doubt we will ever see another Cabela's sale again...
