Help ID-ing/finding grips - American Arms
Colorado Coffinmaker replied to Tatanka Tom's topic in SASS Wire
Tanaka Tom Just based on the shape of the grips as shown in your tin Types, I would be prone to guess what you have were made by Pietta. The grips appear to be the "Old Style" Pietta with the "Trombone Bell" shape at the bottom. That style Pietta grip is no longer in production, but there are some folks who still make grips for them. Take a gander on eBay for Pietta Parts. Good Luck -
Hey there H. K. Short answer is NO. To the best of my knowledge, nobody makes "conversion" cylinders for SAA or SA Replicants. So: I have to agree with Abilene and add my professional (retired) Opine. Start with 32-20, then Bore out and Sleeve the chambers. It won't be cheep, but it will be do-able.

OK. When I retired, I put my little book of secrets in a safe place. You guessed it. Now I can't find its safe place. Anybody know the thread pitch/size for the Magazine End Cap on a Uberti Rifle?? Of course, then I have to find a correct Tap.

Do they teach this in the military?
Colorado Coffinmaker replied to Alpo's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
YES -
Pietta has been building really nice guns for a number of years now. Quite superior to Uberti, who have never fix'd the abominable Barrel to Arbor fit.

Depending on whether you hold yer tongue right, the Targets will move Left, Right, Up Or Down just as you break the shot. Seen 'em do it I have.

4.4 mile record rifle shot
Colorado Coffinmaker replied to Rye Miles #13621's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Marksmanship?? Not Hardly (Quote the Duke). With that custom built rifle, and the computations provided, anyone could pull the trigger. They didn't show the bracing under the rifle for the shot. The shooter and the team all confirmed, the hit was not repeatable and was more "luck" than anything. Interesting?? Sure. Valuable?? Nah. PLUS ONE for Rye Miles. I couldn't see that target at over 4 miles and the target was 10 feet by 7 feet. -
Yessiree Them Birds were TERRIFIED. Expecial when one considers we was shootin Under Cover!! I also had the Yellow Jackets some frightened!!

Peanuts!! Popcorn!!! Crackerjacks!! Step right up. Let's get this to THREE PAGES yessiree Bob. Says the guy who drew TWO Stage DQ for breaking the 170 with the Shotgun Barrels pointing Straight Up. Just glad it was a Side Match.

Kiss an awful lot of "year round" fresh fruit and veggies good bye for a while. These Cretan's will rapidly strangle the economy for nothing more than their own GREED.

Oy!! The wonderfulness of Hammer Double Shotguns. So you have a Rifle in one hand the Shotgun in the other hand. Where you gonna get that third hand to Open that Scattergun, pray tell?

Anyone who gets up on the Soap Box to spout off that Chemicals for Powders are not being made are fools. Spouting pure unadulterated garbage. Those whom also spout the Government is attacking the rounds to control Firearms are just as wack-0. NONE of that kind of crap is in any way true. Misguided Rumors, Propaganda and Scare Tactics. However, it is true a large majority of powders and components are being diverged to military ammunition production to help supply our allies in several theaters. This has been added to the shortages generated by Covid shutdowns. Prices on the other hand are being artificially elevated by the manufacturers because THEY CAN. Expecting prices to return to pre-pandemic levels is a pipe dream. It simply isn't going to happen. There are two choices. Pay the prices for what you want/need. Or Quit. And if you think the above is bad, just give the Longshore Men a little time strangling imported goods for absolutely stupid demands.
