I wrote a post earlier ("help me choose") asking for help in choosing my first black powder revolver (thank you to everyone who weighed in). After careful deliberation though, I decided not to get a bp revolver, but a replica 1873 cartridge firearm.
I choose the Uberti 1873 Cattleman, 4 3/4 barrel in .45lc. Let me first say that this gun is a fire-breathing dragon! The muzzle flash and report of this firearm is really something to see!
I really love this firearm and the authenticity of the round it shoots, but at this point in my life, I feel that the expense of the round is cost prohibitive to my truly enjoying the firearm.
So...what do you feel is most important to you? Authenticity or Affordability?
Would you be happier owning a gun because of its historical accuracy, or your ability to use it more frequently?
And as a side note....if you have any affordable ammunition dealers (online or otherwise) send 'em my way!
Thanks in advance for weighing in!
