New to black powder and looking to get a new or used 1858 Remington .44........I've found 3 different brands online, Pietta, Tradiations, and Uberti......Some say they are all made by Pietta.....Any info on this would really help me out and thanks to.......
"Traditions" is just a seller of Pietta products. Uberti and Pedersoli also make 1858 Rem. I own 2 2019 Piettas 58s that will shoot match winning National championship scores when I do my part. These 58 factory guns keep up with my Custom built match 58 with only a trigger tune. Considering my side by side evaluation of Ubertis vs. Pietta at DGW in 2019 including caliper measurements of bore vs. cylinder Pietta Colts and 58s won for match use. "Pretty boy gun" or display gun issues were not considered. Would not bother with current made Ubertis at this time for a possible match gun...c
