Woodrow Call Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 Like new condition. 7.5 inch barrel $400
Rube Burrows Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 I thought the 71/72 Open Tops have a round barrel?
Chas B. Wolfson, SASS #11104 Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 This actually looks like an '51 conversion. "71/'72 Open Tops have a blade front sight and a raised rear site at rear of barrel, machined as part of barrel. And yes, '71/'72 models do have a round barrel, '51 conversions are octagon with rear sight notch in hammer. I have and shoot both models. Chas B
Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 That is properly called a '51 Richards-Mason conversion. A few years back Uberti started stamping an 1871 on the side (which is about the time that the originals were converted), and that tends to confuse people. I think Cimarron got a trademark on the name Richards-Mason, so Taylors calls them a C. Mason. Anyways, I have four or I'd jump on it, that is a very good price.
Colorado Coffinmaker Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 PLUS ONE too Abilene!! Atz an 1851 Conversion. Atz also a very good price.
Waimea Posted October 29, 2020 Posted October 29, 2020 Awesome gun. I have used a pair as main match pistols for 8 years. LOVE THEM! Good price on this gun. Someone please buy it. Waimea

Someone please buy it. Waimea I want to, and will if it is here two weeks from now. Doubtful, but here’s to hoping. Already have a row of ducks to shoot down until then. Chert Rock
Woodrow Call Posted October 29, 2020 Author Posted October 29, 2020 Abilene is right. I bought it as a 1851 factory conversion copy and noticed I was stamped 1871. It’s a Uberti imported by Stoeger. woodrow
Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted October 29, 2020 Posted October 29, 2020 Just fyi, the current Uberti 1860 conversions also have 1871 stamped on the barrel.
Hair Trigger Jim Posted October 30, 2020 Posted October 30, 2020 Does the $400 price include shipping?
Brazos John Posted November 4, 2020 Posted November 4, 2020 OK, I didn't want to be pushy, so I gave everyone else a chance to pick up on this. But, since nobody else grabbed it, I'll go ahead and take it, removing any temptation that y'all might still be harboring. That is, if it ain't already gone. I'll pm you for details. Thanks, Brazos
