Great Black Powder Gun

Date:February 18, 2012

I've owned this gun for over 5 years now ... fit and finish is excellent. And, what an experience to shoot a replica of a gun tha used to be an actual combat piece. I can't imagine having to defend myself with this hunk. It is too cool! Buy an extra cylinder ... more fun between reloads.

Great Revolver

Date:January 27, 2008

I just used this for the first time and I would say that this is an excellent revolver. I am very new to this so maybe my issue was related to that.
The instruction manual that came with it, from Pietta, said to use 12-15 grains of powder. This was not enough to get the ball out of the cylinder and it jammed it up. The Cabela's manual said to use 35 grains. This worked great.
I would recommend this product to anyone.

Good gun

Date:September 17, 2007

Just started shooting black powder and pistol.
I am getting 6 inch groups or less with 777 powder and hornady balls at 25 yards. Sights are not adjustable so it is a bit hard to aim. Easy cleaning wiht black powder solvent. Nice trigger pull. #11 primers work great.

Very Nice Revolver

Date:May 11, 2007

I bought this handsome revolver based on the excellent looks of the color case hardened finish as depicted on the web site. I was not disappointed.
My pistol has the prettiest color cased finish I have seen in a long time. The gun shoots well and I am enthused to spend some more time working up a "best load".
The trigger pull was a bit gritty as recieved, I tore down the gun and smoothed the triggers sear engagement surface lightly with #600 paper and likewise with the hammer sear surface. Much improved now.
These revolvers need to be disassembled completely to a bare frame after shooting to prevent corrosion. Invest in a "gunsmiths" screwdriver set, if not you will destroy your screws by trying to use standard screwdriver bits.
