Well Satisfied
Date:
My first firearm purchase. Had to learn from scratch but getting better. Gun seems high quality, starter kit was nice.
Been out to the range 4 times with it so far....does seem to shoot a little left, right, high and low but I'm thinking my old eyes have more to do with that than the gun!
It's been a load of fun to own...and the service from Cabellas was very good with the gun arriving a bit ahead of schedule.

Lots of fun
Date:
The Colt 1860 Army is a lot of fun to shoot. It's also well made, nice fit and finish. I recommend the starter kit.This was my first cap and ball revolver and the kit gave me every thing I needed to shoot except powder and caps.

Art Deco Revolver
Date:
I bought one of these from Cabela's a few years ago. I once read a description of the 1860 Army as being 70 years ahead of itself in terms of industrial design, and the author described it as an Art Deco-like design. I agree. The housing for the rammer gives it that look...very streamlined. It's well-balanced with a grip that fits the hand well, although it's difficult for me to sight through the hammer notch (I prefer the Remington New Army for cowboy shooting applications.# I prefer Pietta's more authentic-looking grips to Uberti's red-stained wooden grips. My only complaint about this model is that, like other Colt-style percussion revolvers, it doesn't lend itself to using a loading tool, or easily swapping out a cartridge conversion cylinder #as in the Remington 58 design) because the barrel wedge must be removed first. Nonetheless, it shoots well and is a beautiful gun, with its case-hardened frame, richly blued cylinder and barrel, and attractive grips, not to mention the streamlined rammer housing. It was a highly regarded weapon during the Civil War and was used in its original configuration out west well into the cartridge era.
