Hi folks,
I've been thinking about getting a Remington revolving carbine, or a detachable shoulder stock for colt 1851/1860 revolver. I have stumbled on what I consider a good deal on a 1866 revolving carbine. Those of you who own the remington revolving carbine, what is your take on the gun? There is the common problems with this gun, sparks and hot cap fragments close to your face, and the handgun style grip, but these aside, what do you think of it? How accurate can they be? Under 50 yards they seem okay.
Also, is $325 a steal on a hardly used one, I see how much they are at cabelas and midway, but I'm thinking of the black friday cabelas sale, have they gone down to $400 in recent years?
Thanks for your time.
