Prairie Dawg, SASS #50329 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 I had a pair for many years. They are purdy & nice performers. Just like shooting a Colt 36 Navy percussion gun, but much more convenient. I enjoyed mine very much They'll need a new firing pin (The Smith Shop), new springs (I used Wolff). Mine worked just fine without the arbor fix Fun to shoot, easy to clean, & lotsa style points --Dawg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 The MWNN "conversion" is an Opentop Frame with Navy barrel, because that was the way the movie gun was.. The OT's had sharp bendy firing pins in the past but that was corrected years ago so should not be a problem. It should shoot fine as-is but for best performance you may want to address the likely short arbor issue (plenty of info around on that). Originally this gun from Uberti had no rear sight at all, because the movie gun didn't. Later they added in the dovetailed rear sight. It is a nice square sight picture, but the edges of the sight are pretty sharp and might tear up some holsters. You can get it with or without the snake, which is pretty pricey as it is sterling. You probably know about the two piece rammer that comes apart to make an empty brass poker, but don't use the rammer to lever the barrel off of the frame like some do with percussion guns, as the rammer will bend at the joint (don't ask me how I know this).

cab9379 Posted December 26, 2019 Author Share Posted December 26, 2019 What ammo did you use Prairie Dawg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prairie Dawg, SASS #50329 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Good Evening: 38 special case, Winchester or Federal primer, 20 grains FFFg or FFG Black Powder (If I was shooting smokeless, 3.0 grains Bullseye) and a 125 grain bullet (sometimes a 158 grain bullet) The Tusco Long Riders are in Midvale, Ohio. We shoot on the 1st Saturday each month. Your clubs will most likely be the Miami Valley Cowboys in Piqua (https://www.miamivalleycowboys.org/) or The Big Irons Rangers in Middletown, ohio (http://www.bigirons.com/) Both are excellent clubs. Piqua has the Ohio State Match over Memorial weekend Big Irons has Guns of August, on the second weekend of August Can't wait to meet you! --Dawg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkey Flats Jack Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 See this is why I love Ohio cowboys. Jump right in with information and a big welcome! I just bought the wife a pair of the MWNN pistols and see loves them. I'm more of a Remington man myself but I have to admit those are some nice shooting irons right out of the box.

Rooster Ron Wayne Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I shoot Cap guns most of the time anymore. I like the Navy 51's because they remind me of the Movie guns. We all are still kids at heart . We like to pretend to be like our heroes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cab9379 Posted December 27, 2019 Author Share Posted December 27, 2019 Boy thanks for all the responses guys and gals, Turkey where did you purchase them I would like to hold one before I buy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkey Flats Jack Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Boy thanks for all the responses guys and gals, Turkey where did you purchase them I would like to hold one before I buy? I actually ordered them from my local store. But the Mrs had handled my 51 navy cap guns and then another shooters MWNN prior to buying them. Most of us are happy to let a new cowboy checkout/test our gear so they can get a feel for what they like before spending money. If you ever plan on coming to the Eastern side of Ohio let me know and I'll be happy to bring them for you to handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fellow not far off from your area. Lassiter. Google Tom's single action shop. He doesn't really respond to electric communication so a phone call always works best. Idk if he's done work on that specific make/model but he's certainly highly recommended for smith work of all sorts. He made my Chinese made 87 sing.
