    Newbi Advice for a BP revolver

    I am no expert and can only speak of my experiences. My first Cap and Ball was a Pietta "confederate" 1851. It was an impulse buy at Bass pro with the started kit. It is a blast to shoot. The grip feels great in my hand. I then got an 1858 remington. Pietta from Cabelas. I really like this gun...

    Should I shoot BP Revolvers?

    My first was a pietta colt clone. 1851 navy in brass. I love the gun. My second is a pietta New army remington. I love the gun. :grin: The handleing of the colt to me just feels alittle better. The grip is really nice and fits really well. the remingtons handle doesn't fit quite as good for me...

    Any book suggestions for 12 year old Nephew ?

    Maybe mark bakers books" a pilgrims journey". It's geared toward living history and trekking and camping stuff. A lot of how to type stuff.

    I know what "Pietta" realy means

    You are absolutely correct. You should get rid of it as fast as possible. Send it my way and I will find a home for it. :grin:

    Do I need a 54 caliber rifle?

    smoothbores on a TV show

    It's really not bad. Just don't watch it as a documentary or base a persona off of any of the characters. It's a decent story and has some really pretty scenery. I have the DVD set and pull them out and watch them on a rainy day every now and then.

    Ordered my birthday present

    Sorry guys, it took me awhile to get back. I shot it about a week and a half ago for the first time. I really like it. I haven't had a whole lot of time to mess with it and really get a good set up. However for shooting it the first I was very pleased. It hit a tad high and left at 25 paces off...
