Each time that I went to local Sportsman's Warehouse, there in the back corner of the store, hung a rack of Traditions BP pistols and two lonely Uberti's. One was a Walker and the other a 2nd model Dragoon. I was hoping someone would buy them, and get rid of the temptation. But yesterday, the temptation, over-came me and I bought the big Dragoon.
Over the years, I've had several BP revolvers. Two were 2nd. gen. Colts, which I never fired, so I sold them. One was a Pietta 1860, older model, that I never liked the quality. Some of the first one's that I had were brass framed and mostly junk. But, the best one that I owned was a Uberti Colt Walker, that shot point of aim, at 25 yards. I still have a ROA, but they just don't have the traditional look and feel, like the Colts.
The trigger pull, on the Dragoon, is not the best, but I'll work on that later. Today I plan to give it a full work out, and hope it hits close to point of aim.
I'll give a report, later today or tomorrow.
The only cure for the Plague, would be 6 rounds balls, in a tiny group, at 25 yards.
