What is everyones take on bullseye vs. crescent ejector rod heads? I have never owned a six shooter with the bullseye head. What would the pros and cons be? I would think the bullseye would be faster or easier to unload with while the crescent would draw out of the holster faster with less drag. Am I missing anything here? Any problems with holsters and the bullseye head? Seems that Colt only used the bullseye for the first 6 yrs before going to the crescent on the SAA, was this a holster related improvement?

                                                          Thanks

I had the bullseye style on my first set of guns.  Ever since then I've been using the crescent style.  I like that one much better due to the reduced drag in the holster.  I don't notice any different for unloading the gun.

Thanks Doc, maybe Colt came to the same conclusion that you did. I think I will stay with the crescent.
