That's a nice gun Rockstar (how much did it set you back) (don't make me look it up)
Can your new gun use hollow point bullets? I only like hollow point's due to what an old Army man, that won the bronze star in Vietnam, told me one time, "Never shoot to maim" "Always shoot to kill" Hollow points go in small and come out big

The only thing you cannot shoot through this pistol is jacketed bullets. I think Federal makes lead hollow points but I really dont see the need for them. Considering this pistol was designed to hurl just a simple lead ball to kill charging horses and cavalrymen. Round Flat Nose Lead bullet will do just fine for any personal defense needs you might have. Even a lighter load at 750 Feet per second will probably generate somewhere in the realm of 290 foot pound at the muzzle is more than enough.
Oh and the pistol set me back $315.00 and the conversion cylinder $240.00. Added it up its about the same price of a Remington factory conversion. But you dont have to deal with a FFL transfer.

Something of interest I came across a while ago. A reproduction Nazi Sturmgewehr 44 (StG 44) chambered for 22. caliber. These rifles are made in Germany and imported by American Tactical Imports. Quote: This rifle strikes an enjoyable balance between a historically accurate replica rifle and a fun plinking .22. The accuracy and reliability are much better than one might expect to see in a novelty gun. It's not easy to construct a rifle that looks like one design, while functioning like another, but GSG did a good job with this model. So grab a bulk box of .22 rounds and a sack of snacks, and head out to spend an afternoon mounting a successful skirmish along the tin can front with the GSG Schmeisser StG 44. https://www.americanrifleman.org/art...fle-semi-auto/ https://www.gsg-waffen.com/ |

I got a real K43 scoped infantry rifle I'll sell ya. As for the Uberti when it come to quality I think they have always had the reputation of leading the pack. I had purchased a Uberti Colt .36 Navy many years ago and several Remy's between then and now. They were good then and IMO awesome now, Im a happy camper. Never had a Pietta but from what I hear they have come a long way and are running neck and neck with Uberti in the quality department. Mr. Quatro, its a .44 in name only. Even if you didn't convert the cylinder to shoot .45 Colt cartridges. You would still need load a round ball that could measure anywhere from a .452 to .457 in diameter. https://www.uberti-usa.com/uberti-po...of-twist-chart

What sucks is the backlog on ordering specific firearms, went to order a stevens 320 for the wifes birthday, might get it by the end of summer. and Ammo is non existant.

If there would be one gun that I would love to shoot for fun, it would be the Ruger Single Six, six-shooters are the second-best on my list, Caeser Guerini Shotguns are first.

Pandemic gun buyers: outspoken critics of gun ownership who immediately betray their beliefs when their political affiliates and co-rioters begin to burn, loot, and assault.
Which parts does he make mistakes on? |
