Mud Marine,SASS#54686 Life Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 For fun, once in awhile, I bring my two .41 Long Colt Thunderers to a match. Eyes open when I shoot them double action!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Jeemes Kelly Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 OK....silly question time. Remembering Johnny Ringo from my childhood TV shows, does anyone shoot the .44 caliber Le Mat Revolvers in SASS? Have you ever seen it done? It just seems like a fun and funky pistol - with a lot of firepower when you think about it. Best I recall, Johnny Ringo used a cartridge converted LeMat, unlike the real ones. I just started watching the HBO Westworld series and saw that Ed Harris as "the man in black" uses one more like Johnny Ringo's with 9 cartridges and a shotgun shell. Here's an article I found about it: http://www.wideopenspaces.com/hbos-westworlds-ed-harris-lemat-conversion-revolver/ There are a few minor inconsistencies between the real gun and the television show prop. For example, the shotgun barrel would not come apart from the weapon when Ed Harris disassembles the gun, were it a real LeMat. He also could not load a centerfire shotgun shell into the gun as he does in the show. The shotgun barrel on a real LeMat is a muzzleloader, and there is no practical conversion kit that will allow it to be anything but. But the attention to detail is impressive in the show. Harris does actually switch the revolver’s hammer trigger pin between cartridges and shotgun. Very cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickel City Dude Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Correct me if I am wrong but I don't think the LeMat is legal for SASS. They will not allow the Ruger Single seven because it has 7 chambers so why would they allow a LeMat that has 9? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this the new cowboy way? You no see any "smilies" on the reply YOU REQUESTED??TO QUOTE: "Correct me if I'm wrong..." You have made the same erroneous statement TWICE: "I don't think the LeMat is legal for SASS"...and been corrected & directed to the rule in the SHB numerous times. For that, I will not apologize. Are you being purposely obtuse or is the problem a reading disability of some sort? ...and do NOT lecture me on "the Cowboy Way" Link to comment
