Is there a thread that lists which BP revolver was made by which company?

Thanks hawg, made my morning Bill Ruger married a Colt grip frame to a Remington main frame, and the loading lever from a S&B. Added the smoothness of coil springs and called it good.

Welcome to the group.
I just happen to have Quigley. I might try watching it this week end. Thanks for the tip.
To Wobble,
Actually in Gettysburg, the entire load sequence is not shown (of course). Probably better described as, "Jeff Daniels fooling with the pistol to give you the impression he was loading it."
These things are hard to spot. I had to watch it four times to catch the topless dancers in Pickett's charge.
To Thomme,
"I actually see the Ruger Old Army as a sort of... downgraded SAA..." As an exclusively black powdershooter, I see it as an UPGRADE.

When I say "downgraded" I don't mean that it's inferior to SAA style shooters, but in a term of timeline and development. The statement assumed that cartridge shooting is superior to BP shooting, and I apologize for the broad implications of my statement. I merely mean that the Ruger Old Army, to me, at least looks like a Colt SAA if they made them in the 1860's.
