Guys...There is about to be a gunfight!

Spot on Clem

I am always happy for the opprotunity to stop and think about how much I like every revolver I own.
 
Well I guess you can say we are all in violent agreement.. :D:D

I guess the only certainty is that if you ain't shooting real BP in those revolvers, you just ain't shooting. Kinda wasting your time (here we go again..:eek:)
 
noelf - you mean you guys actually use real black powder??? And all thes years I've been using talcum powder!!!! Kinda slow on ignition but I get a big cloud of smoke when it finally goes off! :D:D But enough of that! I want to hear about Doc's new pistol when he gets it - the photos of it made me drool . . . . . . :)
 
Thanks noelf2

And also thanks to Denster for making it available for what I consider to be a good price. At that price the pistol would have gone fairly quickly. I am happy that I read the posts often.

This will be my first Dragoon and I will probably be looking for hints to make the loading lever stay put.

I can tell you this....It won't be "unfired in box" for very long.

I am going to give my neighbors something to complain about.
 
Doc. You are welcome. Hope you enjoy it. Don't know if the lever will drop as I never fired it. It seems to lock into place pretty firmly. The pretty much accepted fix if it doesn't is to make the angle on the catch hook a bit more abrubt. If you search the Walker club thread over on the high road forum there is a pic posted of how to do it.
 
I belong to woodworking and turning forums, a photo forum, a fishing forum and now, here.
These questions, "Should I get this or that?" always generate similar responses.
The direct response should just be: Make up your own mind! But we are too polite. :rolleyes: Or, maybe, we just like a good e-fight. ;)
Personally, I think the Colt's are beautiful and evoke nostalgia. The ones I owned, I couldn't hit a barn wall from the inside with them. Remingtons are good shooters. Ruger OA was the best.
