Brass frame .36
Anyone besides me that shoot one. Fess up. My
dad got this one for me long ago. I don’t know when
the cap&ball revolver copies started. But this one is
old for a new one. I couldn’t buy a holster at the time
so had to make this one. Most of the replaceable parts
have been replaced more then once. I have had it salt
blued three times. I shot it a lot. Time to retire it.
So I know that I don’t want another brass frame even
though this one has not ever given me trouble.
I have a Ruger cap&ball, it shoots great but I don’t like
the heft of it. I like the colt 1851 but don’t know if I
want one. Any one know about the 1861 or any other
ideas. I think I want a .36 caliber. I am open to any and
all ideas that have a why with it. Remember I need to
be educated.
Any of you do leather work or make your own holster?
