Just getting back into the Holy Black after a 20+ year absence - what was I thinking all those years

Well now my pistols are 30 years old - practically antiques in their own right (will get regular exercise from now on!).

Do you have any facial hair left is the question from the flintlock

Why do you think that my alias is Qball

My Greatgrandad's SAA and holster. The SAA is circa 1881.

This Uberti started life as an in the white 58. Sorry the quality is bad I tried to shrink it.

Thanks Alabama! We don't know what year that my Greatgranddad bought it but it had a longer barrel as we can tell that the barrel has been shortened. The front sight is made from a "shield" nickle. The holster doesn't have a makers mark and I hope to find some additional info on it. My Dad shot it some in the early 1940's before he was drafted but it has not fired since. The barrel and cylinders are somewhat pitted:(.

Hey, Captain Invictus, howdy!

Nice slideshow! Thanks for sharing. Your troops look great!

Please don't think too bad of me but it's spelled 'Cavalry.'

It's the English major in me.

Howdy all.
New guy here. Did a lot of BP back in the seventies and early eighties, family came along so priorities changed. I'm back with a vengeance. It all started with a pair of 2nd series Colts, a Walker and a 61 Navy. Then came a pair of NMA remingtons, a target pietta and a uberti carbine. Newest is a unusual uberti 51 Navy, born in 1964 it is a very nice fit and finish with no roll engraving on the cylinder, imported by Navy Arms. I just scored a 48 baby dragoon of GB. A nib uberti, looks nice but the end of the arbor is bent at the wedge slot. I'll see if it shoots, it may become a wall hanger. Somehow along the way I acquired a LeMat and a Howdah. I'm black powder poor now, and loving it!
