A dab of silver solder....

...will apparently not hold on the loading lever retainer stud for my Pietta 1858 Remington. I was shooting it tonight with a conversion cylinder and "POP" off goes the nearly flush mounted stud. Sheesh. I ordered a dovetailed Uberti version and will hand cut a dovetail for the Pietta. Product improvement.
The cylinder appears to work very well though.
 
Probably not properly "sweated" I've seen silver solder take 12 ga recoil, when done properly...

... not that there is anything wrong with dove tailing ;)
