Finagler 6853 Life Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 I have an older Pietta 1858 percussion cap pistol that I am looking to sell. Problem is, I can't find the original cylinder. Anyone have cylinder they want to sell cheap (enough). One that has been used and some patina would be preferred. Thanks for looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trigger Mike Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 I do. Barely used though, but I don't know the value, feel free to make an offer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Marvel Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Greetings Finagler I have a bunch, but it would help to know the date code on the pistol. Pietta made A change in the width of the cylinder bolt notches some time ago, so ..... or you could offer it up without the cylinder and see who is interested? yhs prof marvel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work keeps getting in the way. The serial number on the item in question starts with a B. I have tried other cylinders in it and they seem to function properly. I have a buyer at work but would like to keep my cylinder for my other 58s. I use conversion cylinders in those and could probably let it go as such but, well, you know how it is.

I don't want to spend much and I don't want to insult you with a bad offer. I was hoping for $20 + shipping someone would have a paper weight on their desk to get rid of. the guy here at work just wants this for plinking and trying out BP. He has experience with BP rifles and just wants to mess with it. I think he is also wanting to get ready for the government apocalypse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
