  1. Oddly enough .

    My Father-in-law was always a twin for Chuck Norris. 

    His whole life people would come up and ask him for his autograph and ask if the could take his picture. 

    Lol

    I thought about that same sight as I have a takeoff from my Browning 1886. May also put a Lyman 17a globe front sight too.

    How does the sight fit as I see the chamber tapers out just to the rear of the dovetail?

    I had some take off sights from something,  can't remember what rifle. 

    Had to do very little fitting the sight to fit .

    I liked them much better .

    I will get you a pic and post it on here for you too see .

  3. Friends dont let friends shoot Pyrodex. 

    You can get APP right here threw Scarlett , Its a much much better product. 

    Only thing Pyrodex is good for is Noise Cannons !

    Why does the rest of our country keep on cowing down to California?  They have notices on almost  every  product sold anywhere that California has declared this product to......you name it.  Unsafe,  causes cancer, can make babies be born deformed, etc. 

    The last free American to leave Kalifornia can turn off the lights and let the Left have in to drown in its own cesspool .

    Unfortunately 99% of problems in the rest of the free America starts in California and bleeds to the rest of us to try to keep out of America

    108 years of dirt and grime is part of the history of that rifle, why clean it😁

     

     

     

    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.

    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 .

    My Pietta GWll Rio Deluxe 45 Colt

    Best out of the box action I have ever felt.

    Parts are inner changeable with second gen Colts.

    Build quality is second to none.

    Quality is far much higher then what you pay for IMHO.

  9. 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.

  10. 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 .

  11. 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.

    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 .
