Uberti replica Dance Revolver "Scrap Gun"

[drjldavis]

I am currently finishing up my research of the Uberti replica Dance revolvers that were produced.  A couple of "scrap guns" have surfaced over the last couple of years.  I am interested in determining just how many Uberti surplus parts were used or sold off to other manufacturers that were used in assembling production replica revolvers.  Enough, of what I am calling "Scrap Guns", have surfaced recently to warrant mention in our book.  I would be interested in purchasing one of the scrap Dance revolvers for closer examination as well as any other revolver that seems to have surplus parts from commemorative issues.

Have you seen this one?

Thank you Pathfinder.  This is not a "Scrap" gun but the original Uberti Dance Replica.  Only 50 ever made.  Just bought it on Buy Now.

Glad someone got it who could appreciate it. I can't believe it went that long with no one grabbing it up.

Was the Dance revolver a Confederate arm?   

[W. Stick McCullough]

 Yup. Basically a copy of a Dragoon without the recoil shield. Came in .36 and .44 if'n I recall rightly.

How did that gun turn out? It sure is a looker.
