Waxahachie Kid #17017 L Posted March 2, 2019 Posted March 2, 2019 Yes, that is correct. Pietta is the one, and not Pedersoli. I was thinking Pietta, but wrote down Pedersoli by mistake. I just wish Pietta had the better barrel markings on them, like the Cimarron/Uberti's do. I prefer it to be "44 wcf" or "45 Colt" and not "Cal 44-40", or some such thing. At least it is not as bad as Ruger's warning barrel markers.....so, far, that is. Pietta's quality has definitely come up, in the last few years. I have heard really good things about the Great Western II revolvers.

Well, let's see. For starters, until I got the Runnin' Irons I was using Ruger Blackhawks, so no safety notch there. Of course, the Runnin' Irons had to be put on half cock to load-unlike the Rugers. Maybe I'm just ignorant, but I really can't see what noticing or not noticing a safety notch has to do with my original comment which was that I hadn't noticed that the firing pin "floated" inside the hammer.

Thanks, I can understand that. I started life with Colt and Uberti Cattleman and shot them for 50+ years. Then traided into a pair of Ruger Vaqueros and shot them for 6 months or so. I never got use to the actions or how they worked. Thraided them off and not ever going back!
Deadshot Dan Posted March 7, 2019 Posted March 7, 2019 Does the new 3 click system still load on half cock , or has that been lost too ?

Usually, long threads evolve into a "cow pie" fight and get shut down.
