Well I would like to get an 1851 Navy at Cabelas - I wanted to hold out until the Pietta 1851 Navy London goes on sale for $249 again .... but now I am torn because I see that the 1851 Navy (with brass trigger guard and backstrap) is on sale.
I already have a 1861 Navy (with steel trigger guard and backstrap). The main reason i wanted to wait for the 1851 Navy London to go on sale was so that I could have a matched set of steel frames (to match my 1861) and perhaps get an extra barrel down the road....so that i could swap them out and get a set of matched pistols -- now i noticed that the frames are not the same - the 1861 is a military frame that has cutouts for that carbine stock.
So what should I do! Get the 1851 Navy on sale of wait for the 1851 Navy London to possibly go down to $249 someday? :banghead:
