New to me Replica Arms Ridgefield NJ Griswold and Gunnison clone. I bought this on gunbroker on a whim, as I’ve always wanted a Griswold clone and it’s pretty hard finding any new ones in stock at the usual retailers
.
After looking at the loading plunger it’s a Pietta made gun. The plunger is machined for round ball.
Right out of the box, the gun would not cycle. It was all bound up. Turned out it has a short arbor and had to be shimmed.
This will probably be the first cap and ball Revolver I will send to Goons Gun Works.
