I've noticed that a lot of guys on this site use percussion revolver parts from Dixie Gun Works as replacements for worn parts or to fix timing problems. I've seen these same parts from Cimarron selling for considerably more money ( cylinder bolts for instance are $15.00 each). Are the Cimarron-Uberti parts really worth that much more? Do they possess superior hardening characteristics, better quality steel, etc. or would I be better off just getting my cap-and-ball parts from DGW. As for you shooters that use DGW parts, are you satisfied with their quality? Also, Cabellas carries spare parts kits for some of their (Pietta) revolvers; are these interchangeable for the most part with Uberti-made replicas?
