    1858 New Army revolver - legit combat arm?

    garandman, As I said in my earlier post, if YOUR caps are falling off you are using the wrong size caps, and that makes it operator error, not the fault of the equipment. As for standardization of caps sizes, there is LESS standardization today then there was 150 years ago! :youcrazy:

    1858 New Army revolver - legit combat arm?
