I pick this Pietta .44 1851 Navy up at a pawn shop last year. I was contemplating cutting the barrel off when looking through a DGW flyer that they had some Pietta 1851 Navy barrels in 5" length complete with loading lever. I fired off an order on Monday and received the barrel today.
Taking time to snap a picture.
Remove the wedge key screw and wedge.
Replace with the new barrel assembly and 2 minutes later I had an Pietta 1851 Sheriff's model.
Works slick,
