Rube Burrows Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I have two 1851 Pietta brass frame guns. When I got these I prob. shot them a total of 30 times each. I then stripped the bluing off because I was going to antique them. Well I then scratched that and took one to my local smith and he reblued it. I think he actuall parkerized it but it looks like a soft blue. Looks pretty good. The other one is still mostly stripped. They have no rust and are in perfect condition otherwise. My questions is as follows; Would anyone be interested in trading one Steel framed 1851 or 1860 for both of my brass frames? I love the Cap and Ball style revolvers but want one that shoots cartridges. I would like a steel frame cap and ball revolver so I can possibly do a conversion on it. Let me know if anyone is even interested and I can get you pics of the revolvers that I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boondock Saint, #70146 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Are these .36 or .44 caliber? Do you have a cash price in mind for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rube Burrows Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Oh yeah, sorry. They are in .44 caliber. I dont really have a cash price in mind. I was just trying to obtain a steel frame version so I could possibly put in conversion piece. I love the look of the C&B revolvers but dont like loading and whatnot for CAS shooting.

Tully Mars Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I have a .36 steel frame 1851 Pietta if your interested. I have had the gun since the late 70's, but its not had a lot of use. The wedge is beat up, but the rest of the gun is in good condition. I can email photos to you. Thanks, Tully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
