Well I have a chance to get one of these hogs real reasonable.  Were/are they any good at all?  Would I be able to recoup my $150 if I don't like it?  I have wanted one of these for a long time.  Thanks!
He any good?

Well hell, introduce us.

ASM was spotty, they were sometimes very good, and sometimes not.  If you can inspect it, it would be best case.

What Flint said  ;) ....look it over and if it functions well  :) for $150 yeah !  I'd think you would not get hurt recoop wise.

I've bought many ASM's years ago for Film Props...all the Walkers we used in North & South II were ASM's not pig in the polk.
They were all early 80's guns , check the date code.
when planets align...do the deal !

At that price, get it anyway!

Pull that puppy out at a meeting and suddenly everybody wants to weigh it ;D ;D ;D

As to accuracy,,mine shoots 4" high from POA at 25 yds,,but returns a 2" group!

(It will also hold 60gr Holy Black, if you want to make smoke!!

I've read that ASM's Walkers generally were very good.  Pay the $150 and run away with them!

There isn't much choice when it comes to the 1847 Walker since Armi San Marco was first to produce the Walker with Uberti following.  Only two available except for the 2nd & 3rd Generation Colts which may include both Uberti and San Marco parts.
