I agree, back when the 92 JW Commemorative came out I got it and was going to get a .44 mag replacement barrel for it to shoot .44 special and a well known cowboy gunsmith in West Palm Beach named Nelson asked me why I would replace the barrel when he could ream it to fit .44 special cartridges instead? And since it is the same steel that is used for the .44 mag rifle barrel there would be no issue. I have used it in many a shoot back then at my club and no one mentioned including Nelson that it was against any rules.
So please Rooster let me know the rule(s) that prohibit it?Just unsafe practice to use incorrect ammo in a gun it is not chamberd to use .

Slick as snot with about a 2pd trigger pull .
I could not ask for much better .

Just because it won't harm the rifle ,dont mean it should be done.
Or even allowed in the game .
Its NOT even close in being the correct ammunition for the gun .
I could see someone getting a match DQ for doing such a thing.

No it's not even close to the right size cartridge.
I load 44R 44S 44M and 44-40
You will just damage the brass .
You won't hurt the gun itself .

Real Friends dont let friends shoot Pyrodex 😳
If your going to use a Sub powder.
Use APP powder .
You can use the same bullet and dont have to use any special lube.
Easy to clean .
Smokes a lot .
You can buy it right here off the Wire from
(Scarlett )
Its the best sub in the game IMHO.

Been run'n these for almost 25 yrs .
You can get a no t'bar version.
Hay Lumpy are these pretty much drop in parts ?
Looks like a nice setup you can install yourself for the most part.

I took my new Pietta 1873 45 Colt to the range today since the weather was complimentary.
Actually it did quiite well but no matter how much I shoot it, it's still not a Colt or Ruger.
You get what you pay for. ☹️
Is your Pietta a Great Western ll Pietta ?
I have found them to be excellently built guns myself.
They even are running the Ruger style plunger on the hand instead of the Colt style spring .

Best I can remember is 13.00 14.00 per 1k
Last time I bought primers
I bought 50k at 13.00 per 1k
The next time I went to get primers it was like 80.00 for 1k
I was like What the hell is going on here ?

APP should Not be compressed per APP.
I usually load APP to the bottom of the bullet seated in place .
Plenty of smoke lol really 🤣😂🤣

That's a black powder with black powder loading.
A true duplex loading is Smokeless powder with black powder.
This is Not allowed in SASS .
Although if done properly.
Its very clean & safe to do.
You just can not do it in SASS.

Have a Uberti Cattleman that when it is not cocked and you pull the trigger it acts like the beginning of a double action.
Unfortunately I dont understand what your asking
Can you explain it any different ?

There is a big difference in cleaning and making something functional and stopping the deterioration vs restoration.
Im cleaning it fixing what is broken to stop the deterioration and making the firearm safe to function.
