Not only just some French song, la Marseillaise is the French national anthem

I was told to keep a screw and a plastic wall plug of the right size for my brass in my gun curt to remove broken cases from the rifle chamber. Never hat to use it (yet... )

But it must have been a Buntline custom order, that barrel looks way longer than 8" envisioned without the knot -
Not sure, if it's what Warden Callaway already described, but the pictures below show the common design in Europe. You can remove each ring separately from the stove to adapt to the size of your conical pots and adjust how deep the pot is in the fire. And yes, when removing the lid the flames flare out of the stove. Alternatively, you can leave the lid and use every pot or pan you like. Usually, there is a container where's always hot water (like on the last picture). I used such fire stoves a couple of times in mountain cottages.

The shells you posted look like MagTech to me, would be CBC head stamped. The cannelure is less deep than Winchester's. MagTech brass is all what I shoot and reload in .45 Colt because I bought a couple tousands factory ammo when I started this game and MagTech was the only affordable brand over here (Switzerland) for Cowboy ammo. I never had an issue so far with the cannelure shooting rather steady loads compared to others (6.0 grn of VV N320 under a 250 grn bullet in my rifles). While I quite dislike CBC brass in 9mm for their narrow primer pocket I encountered no seating issues with the large primers in .45 Colt.

If there's a miss one cannot say which target was engaged. So, with the round that missed the shooter could have engaged the target that was already down and all targets were engaged.

Have the lender holster the revolvers, but after the TO asks to collect all firearms.

While I don't think the described situation was unsafe in any way, I do think that it was quite poor practice. The TO's eyes are on the shooter and his/her gun handling only. Nobody else is supposed to handle guns on the stage, maybe even behind the TO's back! Although 10 shots have been shot, the pistols are not considered empty until declared empty at the ULT. Who was monitoring the holstering for sweeping, not breaking 170 etc.? Did the lender stand on the exact same firing line when holstering or were the pistols behind the shooter? Who's penalty is it if the gun drops? I certainly would have advised the lender to not touch any firearm again until the last round of the stage is shot and permission of the TO is given.

That one took me a second... or two... or a couple of minutes

Uberti uses quite soft screws and some of them come quite tightened from the factory. So, use quality screw drivers of the right size for each screw!
