You might want to look at the Ranger Point trigger. Ruled legal and like their extractor is just right.

While this topic has popped up. I did as Roger suggested and got the 45 firing pin installed. Works great. On the Pedersoli FB page someone complained of the same thing, (357 firing pin broke), so I put up Roger's answer and that I had mine done. One of the comments was from Pedersoli folks themselves that gave it the thumbs up as best solution. Again Roger, thank you, thank you!!! PS I now mostly use the rifle for attempting to shoot little steel chickens, rams, turkeys and pigs. I was using 357 mag with TB and 125g bullets but one of the guys that is a lot better than I am suggested using a heavier bullet so going to go back to trying the Hunters supply 162g bullets.

Thanks I contacted Pedersoli and they say that VTI should have pins in stock. I have a gunsmith locally here that should be able to do that but again thank you.

Just had the firing pin break. Nothing on VTI or Taylor's that I can find.

No not until Gaslamp Fantasy is also recognized. If there is enough interest in this why can't Wild Bunch get to 38 call rifles and 38 super 1911.

I have been looking for antler pusher no luck. With Hunter Supply 162g rounds are 1.54 Yep good tight crimp, learned that the hard way as well

It is a great amount of information. I finally with push stick got 10 rounds of 357 length rounds in the 20 " Pedersoli. Worked fine not a hiccup. Worked with 38 spl with Hunter Supply 162g. I think even better as the nose is quite a bit smaller than the chamber. Regular 38sp rifle locks up. Did not expect different. Hopefully the spring will relax so getting rounds 9 and 10 does not require such a struggle. Oh I replaced the follower with the Armorers Edge delrin one.

Thank you. Just ordered one. I had a longer barrel Uberti/Beretta but it just felt muzzle heavy to me (I know toughen up ). I mostly use a Marlin CBC as main but every now and then just for fun like to try to lightning.

20 inch

I have gone through everyone of the replica lightnings and several in some cases. Taurus worked if you went slow like target shooting. Beretta/Uberti always seemed to run well but for the last round which would magically jam. The AWA ran for a bit until some parts broke and no parts available. Gunsmith got it running but never seemed quite right and was always worrying about bteaking another part. Pedersoli so far seems to run most consistent but if you get the right bullet and cartridge length. Mine is a 357 and it means that, not 38 sp. The worse is trying to wedge 10 rounds in it. At eight it gets tough, 9 I can mostly man handle a round in. Ten seems to be no way. Pedersoli has a limiter that is one piece with the follower and I am loath to do anything to it least I screw up the rifle.

Got a 357 carbine but have not put too much through it. Still thank you for sharing your expertise.

I have been doing mor non cas lately. IDPA and three gun. Grandpower X-calibur 9mm, EAA gold witness 38 super, kel tec RDB 223, CZ scorpion 9mm, VEPR 12 much modified.

I use Walker razor. Behind the neck 31 db reduction

Site indicates 44-40 and 38 special did not see any other calibers.

Sorry those where star 9mms not 45s. There was also a luger pistol in there.

Probably get more WB shooters if went back to the old rules. Any semi or da pre 1917, any SASS legal lever.

6 stage 10/10/4 is nothing compared to the amount of ammo that I put through on a 3 gun match. If it was not for the reloading machine I could not afford to go. Depending on the machine, it can be daunting but in the end will pay for itself many times over. I probably have more tied up in die sets then the machine itself which is another expense. Still considering once the big expense is out of the way things pay for themselves quickly.

The cbc in 38 special have a different carrier? Just want to know if I would have to set 38 rounds out further like in a 357 1894. I tried it with some dummy 38 round and seemed alright.

Put in the one piece Marlin ejector (drops right in). I found it helps, also a lever wrap so you do not short stroke it which is a prime reason for the big boy to catch brass

And that is exactly whatb I have done. Also did WW2 once with 1911, Thompson sub, 97 shotgun.

I deciced on a Marlin CBC 1894 in 38 special. Tried it with some dummy rounds and seemed to have no problems

The Alchemista III have from factory 60 grips on them and real purty as well. I like new model 3s as the grip is more like DA revolver

Amen on Wild Bunch, it was a lot more fun back then.
