Help with MY Christmas present

That's a great deal the OP should jump on it, they end the sales fast sometimes, I own at least four Piettas great guns for sure.
 
I bought a Traditions (Pietta) 1860 a while back with their "antique" finish. It was in their bargains area and as I recall was less than $300.00. Each to his or her own but IMHO it is the nicest looking 1860 I have. Since most of my guns are safe queens looks are job one.
 
Start with the 1860. And that pretty engraving on the cylinder, I do not believe it enhances the gun. A good shooter is of more value to me than a "pretty" gun. You will end up owning both anyway.:D
It really depends on your preference, the 1851 points great etc. I believe the 1860 is a better gun overall.
If you are like most of us, you will end up with many models made by many companies. The 1860 is good place to start.
