Hey pards, havent been in SASS much, I have urbertie 73 cattleman's, a rossie 92 and a stoeger sxs 12 ga. The rifle & pistols are .45lc Question I am tossing out here is this. I just might be coming into some money and the missus told me I could have some for whatever guns I wanted. I am thinking a cody-matic 73 and 2 smoke wagons also by cody in .357. What do ya'll think

IMHO I don't think you would be making a mistake getting the Smoke Wagons and the 1873. I have a pair of "Deluxe" smoke Wagons in .38 Special. Right out of the box stock they have improved my shooting. I also much prefer my 1873 over my Rossi 92.

Everything total counting shipping plus tuning on the pistold would be about $ 2500.00 but just love guns lol

In my experience, those would be excellent choices for a battery of guns.  Sadly, I must report that my experiences with the 'smith you reference have been less than positive.

Great choices in guns and in the smith.  Cody has done all the work on all my guns, except for my Bisleys, since I started shooting.  Once I let anotherlocal  smith do some work for me to try to save on shipping cost and when that just didn't work out Cody fixed it without charging me.  He wouldn't even let me pay shipping!


August I highly recommend that you talk to Cody about whatever problem you have had.  He will make it right.
