Has anyone on here bought one of these guns? They sure look good. Engraved with white grips. Dang I'm wanting one. If they were to go on sale I think that would do it for me! Just curious if anybody here has one, and what they think of it. Thanks for any input. I like to research my purchases.
 
update

I just went to Cabelas again to look at this gun and it was on sale for 249.00, that's a 100 bucks off, I signed up for their card too, and got 25.00 more off. and free shipping. So I got what was normally priced at 349.00 for 225.00 shipped. Damn I'm happy right now. I had just bought the plain 1851 last week, now I have a pair!
 
Here's mine....

That's sweet! The one I bought is not plated much plainer, but it is still engraved, with faux ivory grips.
 
The one I got from cabelas is in 36 cal. It's the standard yank model just engraved with nicer grips. I'll post pics when it arrives.
 
Check the frames with a magnet. Some of the nickeled revolvers are brass framed rather than steel. You want to stay with mild loads if the frame is non magnetic: 20grs FFFg if in 44cal and 15-18 FFFg if in 36 cal.
