Come On Christmas Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I’m offering a ASM .44 caliber 1858 with a nickle reciever. The fit and handling of this pistol is marvelous. Doesn’t have an action job to my knowledge, but the fit is wonderful. 1858’s drag after a few stages, this one seems immune. Note: barrel nick and scuff on grip. Price via USPS MONEY ORDER is $350 delivered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT. QUINCANNON, SASS #32999 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Brass frame under the nickle? Use a magnet on the topstrap to see if it is brass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Come On Christmas Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 I just called VTI. I thought it was stainless steel originally. The rep suggested this too. I was was told it was nickle. I am researching. I looked at a screw hole on the trigger guard and the treads are shiny. I am selling the gun for what I paid for same. So, it’s not like I have a get rich quick scheme going. I may have to scratch it to be certain. Not so Shameless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Black Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Shouldn’t have to scratch it. If it’s brass a magnet will not be attracted to it, if it’s steel it will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Come On Christmas Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 If so, then a magnet does not stick. How well does a magnet adhere to Stainless Steel? Are you two guys buying? Or kicking tires? What? Righters of all wrongs? I’m researching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Come On Christmas Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 I couldn’t scratch it. I screwed in a screw in the trigger guard again and it is plated. I assume it’s nickle, chrome, or some other shiny metal. Subject to prior sale on gunbroker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come On Christmas Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 Huh? Duh? Who is trolling who? Oh no, you just couldn’t PM me and ask the questions you asked. Oh no, you two decided to walk all over my post . . . Bored? Have a bad day? I kinda felt like you were questioning my integrity. No sir, complete your investigation, I’m not a GUEST. Perhaps it’s good your no longer in some form of law enforcement/judicial system. Look at my friends list. It’s a who’s who of my past trades, buys, and sales. i actually wanted someone from SASS to own this piece. i broke my own rule. Stay off the SASS wire. Hope you can guess why? ”A wink is just as good as a nod to a blind horse.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am, or was originally interested in your pistol, but another member replied to an inquiry and I’m making another deal for a pair of old army Rugers all set up and ready to go so I’m all out of spending money. Good luck with your sale, it’s an interesting and handsome pistol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
