I am always around somewhere.....always...

And I have that damn job. For a little while longer....

The conversions are so Clint Eastwood. I also like the 75 Remington looks.

Uberti makes both the 1875 and the 1858 conversion, good looking solid guns. They probably made excellent clubs for peace officers back in the day, I've read that Wyatt Earp clubbed far more people with his revolver than he shot with it.

Uberti is the source for the ones that are unobtainable.

Here's an 1851 Navy conversion, very good shooter.

When we can all gather in the love of lever rifles six shooters and leather I will be there.

When you get that far back, stuff gets really expensive and you have to use BP cartridges.

There is a pair of 1872 “Colts”, (uberti), with a gun belt on GB.

Uberti and .38 for the win.
so the Colt I bought was made in 1905. That’s in the transition period to smokeless powder?

I have nothing to add to this but am enjoying the conversation.

 

[rkwhyte2]

Dang it now you all have me out on the Uberti web site looking at rifles and pistols.

 

[KJQ6945]

I bought about 4 types of ammo, but it’s all low velocity cowboy action stuff.

 

[SarahG]

I'm been looking at more commie guns. Someone guide me away.

They make very affordable, and beautiful guns.

You need a nice American lever gun, made in Italy.

You’re asking the wrong group if that’s what you’re wanting

Nobody knows for sure, but 1905 is definitely smokeless, you may be able to see a small triangle with a VP in it on the trigger guard that confirms this. The change over takes place sometime between 1890 and 1900 and not all the parts were changed at the same time. You see Colts with what are known as "long flute" cylinders which are BP vintage 1878 cylinders that were reworked after that model was discontinued. William Mason wasted nothing, a true factory man.

I'm looking at 9mm SBRs
