Converting an 1860 Army

[Major Matt Lewis]

Good Evening.

Say I new this guy who had an 1860 Army that he wanted to have converted like Tom Selleck had in Saber River.  What would need to be done to it?

Thank you,

Send it to Kenny Howell and tell him what you want.  In the meantime start saving plenty of  money.

Been there done that, plate is the hardest to make, all modern made cylinders will break through cyl stop knotch.  Have fun and just buy the Cim Richards Second Model.  That is what I am going to do with the project 75% done.

Go here for a general idea:

Major, you may want to check www.1960nma.org, click "What We Gonna Do Now": there is the picture story how Karl Nedbal converted my Belgian Colt 1860 aka Centaure 1960 NMA to a Richards I.
