Especially Hawg.. deep down, he's the biggest softie here.
DUNITALL, There were no Remington copies in brass (actually a bronze alloy). Most of them were copies of the 51 Colt navy and all were .36 caliber. BTW there was no shortage of iron during the war.
Better Akexpat?
Could it be that someone took a .44 and bored it out to .50?
