Happy Appy Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Initial reaction is WOW Alissandro Peitta took a page out of history books and reintroduced the 1873, paired with the 1860 army grip frame. He added a competition trigger that is wider and set back allowing for larger finger in trigger guard, with lower wider hammer. Case hardened frame with brass back strap and added distinctive octagon blue barrel. Lazer grips Guns are NIB never been fired action work already done and slick as u would want ready out of the box. 357 cal $1350 + shipping to your FFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Appy Posted April 28, 2020 Author Share Posted April 28, 2020 Bob Pietta makes the two guns and the only change is Mike Harvey has the lazer done different on his and charges what ever he wants for his. Just like Taylor and Uberti are the same gun and Chimarron too. They are all Uberti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I do like the look of the brass trigger guard you have . i think the Pietta’s are probably going to become more popular since Uberti is switching all of their guns over to the floating FP. i know that’s kinda what turned me off to them because they also sell a model with the 1860 grip frame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I luv the guns and they already make a ! and 2 model of this gun. The thing that I really like about mine is the barrel. It is neat. They really do a great job on the action. They don't have to have more money spent on them to get on the range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckshot Bob Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 These are too close to what I already have , my next set will probably be 45’s or a set a vaquero’s , but I’d definitely have to do something about the Ruger grips , I hate it when my pinkie wraps under the grip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If u change to Ruger there isn't anything u can do about the grips they are navy. I'm like u about the pinkie hangs off because of my hand size.

I found a grip maker that makes oversized grips for the Ruger and I’ve been told a black hawk frame will fit on the vaquero. I had a Bisley grip gun once but just never liked it .

Mike Harvey is changing over to Pietta since he use to handle nothing but Uberti just has Cimarron on the guns he imports from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did they just cut him a better deal . Taylor’s seems big on Umberti. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor’s seems big on Umberti. With all the old gunsmiths retiring he thought the new men didn't do as good and let their work slip a little and that Peitta builds a fine gun anyway and have done it for a long time. This is just what I was tol;d. Uberti is a good gun just like Bill Ruger builds a good gun. Colt has a great gun also if u want to pay for the name. Even Rossi builds a nice gun in a rifle and shot gun that most people can afford. Look at SKB and Browning they are two of the top shoot guns but at a price.
