Capt. R. Hugh Kidnme Posted June 5, 2024 Posted June 5, 2024 Slick, Gorgeous looking guns. Are the firing pins on the hammers and 4click; or are these Piettas t-bar style pistols?
Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted June 5, 2024 Posted June 5, 2024 You can see the firing pin in one of the pictures, so I'm sure these are standard actions.

As is, they are not allowed in: Duelist Gunfighter Classic Frontier Cartridge BUUUUUUUT, Pietta is looking at possibly changing the front sight design to be legal in ALL SASS categories.

Is it worth try'n to go for a rule change/ modification? I, for one, don't see the big deal with the dovetail front sight. Lot easier to replace if damaged.

I would likely not even notice the dovetails if I weren't attracted enough by the octagon barrels to have a closer look.

It’s not truly adjustable but it’s the rules and not sure they’ll change it.
