Signature or 3rd gen. Colt 1860 Army - Backstrap

[Long Johns Wolf]

I am new to these 3rd gen. Colt 1860 Armies.
Have a question for the owners of such percussion revolvers.
It is about the backstrap.
Is the steel backstrap a cast or welded together from parts?
Thanks,

Hi LJW   

The Backstrap is a standard Uberti Backstrap.  I believe them to be cast as they show separation marks from a mold.
