***Sold Pending Funds***2 Pietta .36 caliber '51 Navy Pistols w/holsters

***Sold Pending Funds*** I bought this set of cap pistols off the wire here about four years ago from Lefty Dude.  These have both had the internals polished, the hand spring modification, the hammer springs replaced w/Colt clone 1873 springs, and a set of SlixShot nipples installed.  I have very little experience with percussion pistols but I have owned a few others in the past and these are far and away much, much smoother shooting than any others I've ever used.  Lefty did all the work on these and I can't imagine that anyone could find fault with the work done. 

 

I had thought I'd get into shooting cap pistols in matches but it just never happened so someone else may as well give these a try.  One is a Pietta 1851 Navy Steel cl.36 with a date code of CM and the other is the Pietta 1851 Navy Yank cl.36 "Wild Bill Hickok" with a date code of CI.  Both have the 7  1/2" barrel and come with the box and documents. The "Wild Bill Hickok" model is an exceptionally pretty gun, and I tried for quite a while after purchasing these to find another one just like it but it never happened. 

 

In addition to the pistols I'll include a set of holsters stamped "M.J. Keenan MAKER Tucson, Az" - both have this stamping on the front and one has "M.J. Keenan February 16, 2002" inscribed on the back.   Also included will be a box of 100 .36 (.375") caliber balls, a leather bag with perhaps 25-30 balls ( I didn't count them), a wedge tool and one set of the standard nipples that came on the Pietta.  IF you should happen to be close enough to north Georgia to arrange picking this package deal up, I will also throw in EITHER a can of 2F Goex that's about half full OR a can of 3F Goex that's about 3/4 full - whichever you'd like -  AND - (it just keeps getting better.........!!) a couple of unopened tins (100 ea.) of Remington #10 caps.  Obviously the powder and the caps will NOT be shipped if the package needs to be sent to you.

 

All this for $850, plus shipping (within the US).  Send me a PM if interested.
