    This came in today.. purdy. Leech and Rigdon, Cimarron

    That was nice of Cimarron to respond.

    Pronunciation of "gonne"

    Go boom thing.

    This came in today.. purdy. Leech and Rigdon, Cimarron

    The C is an imperfectly stamped date code. The second letter only shows the top and in my opinion could be an F, T or Z. ( I’ll go with Z.) If it’s important to know maybe Cimarron can tell you? The marks on the barrel are also imperfectly stamped. As others frequently point out on the forum...

    Pritchett Bullet Mold

    I have not used Pritchett bullets or cartridges but please explain how the Burton ball and cartridge are clumsy by comparison. And please know I’m not trying to start an argument - I would just like to know the basis for that claim. Thanks!

    That is a handsome piece. If it were mine I wouldn’t hesitate to take it to the range.

    Owners of original (not modern replicas) C&B revolvers, do you shoot them?

    My only originals are a Colt 1855 Root and a Starr DA. I took apart a reproduction Root once and the fragile parts made an impression. I’m concerned about shooting the Root and breaking something. Not sure about the Starr but I think it would be fine. I just haven’t got around to it yet. Any...

    Inquiry about current replica percussion revolvers

    That sounds great @No second place! Let’s see, I just checked the mileage - 1,909 miles from my door to Dixie Gun Works. Sometimes I envy y’all in that part of the country. In Bjg Sky Country options are a bit more limited. 🫤

    Inquiry about current replica percussion revolvers

    Want to consider a lightly used Pietta Remington New Model Navy? 😄

    Inquiry about current replica percussion revolvers

    I have purchased quite a few Italian reproductions and I have also found that Uberti is generally of higher quality (fit, finish, action, etc.) than Pietta or earlier makers. I have had a few issues with Ubertis, but none I couldn't correct. (Be aware of the short arbor problem, discussed in...

    SOLD - Pending funds ASM Wells Fargo

    I see a date code AT (1988) over-stamped on both serial numbers. Looks nice enough, but this is a rare case where I have all I need/want. For now.

    Need help identifying defarbed repro Enfield's markings

    DGG = Armi San Paolo, Italy. (At least I’m pretty sure…)

    FOR SALE 1865 Enfield for sale

    I agree except - as I posted before, I learned that some of the Parker Hale pattern 1853 (“three-band”) Enfields had 1:48 rifling. I was told that they were made for the U.S. market. I have two PH p1853 Enfields, in both 1:48 and 1:78 rifling. They are both accurate and I’m not convinced that...

    WANTED 31 cal pocket models

    I have a Palmetto 1849 clone, "Hartford Pocket Model." BN/2000 proof date. It's very clean and I believe it's unfired. Price is negotiable, but certainly less than a new Uberti. (No offense meant to blackpowderbill!) PM if interested.

    Difference in Cimarron Colt Walker vs "regular" Uberti Walker?

    Anything for another Dead Head.
