Stainless barrels

Recommended Posts

Howdy friends of CAS !

 

I`m here for the first time and I will take this oportunity to greet you all !

 

But in the CAS-world there are a lot of questions,

and I have one that I will come forward with.

 

I have used two Uberti Cattlemans (old modell) for a number of years.

And I must say that they have served me well.

But I have all these years been exposing them to black powder as this is my way to go.

As a"midlife gesture" to those revolvers I am among other things searching for a nice couple of new barrels.

I`m thinking of stainless barrels. I know that Uberti is offering stainless Cattlemans,

so there should be some spare parts available.

The question is really in two parts.

 

1. Will the stainless barrels fit ?

2. If yes, where can I find them and import them to Norway ? Not a word about this in the Uberti home site.

 

The calibre is 44-40 and the barrels I have now are 7 1/2 inch.

The guns are produced around the year 1995 to 2000.

I`m considering going down to 5 1/2 inch.

I will look forward to any information on this topic.

 

Best regards

Sir, I know nothing of import/export but I would Google VTI gun parts when looking for Uberti parts...just my meager opinion.

Yall could probably contact Uberti directly being in Europe already. They will probably not deal with you but will put you in touch with the proper importer. WK

Samuel Carpenter and three other Norwegians are here for Winter Range. I was going to suggest that I could order the barrels and Samuel could take them back with him. However, none of the American parts suppliers or distributors show the Uberti in stainless in .44-40.

Howdy again !

 

I have done some more surfing and searching.

It is probably and regretably right that Uberti do not

and will not make the stainless Cattleman in cal. 44-40.

 

Thie means that I will have to go for plain steel barrels

for this "midlife upgrade".

 

Thanks for the answers.

 

Best regards
