New Pietta Replica - Captain Schaeffer's 1851 Navy Colt

[Major 2]

 "There are supposed to be 60 61 of them and they are all pre-sold."

That is what I was told as well, when they took my CC# for mine last week  

[Barrelhouse Bob]

Not all pre sold. I just ordered a pair today. According to EMF they will ship about the end of the week after they are examined to be sure they are in problem free. I ask for and was assured I would receive consecutive numbered revolvers. Should arrive some time next week!! 

[Coffinmaker]

Oh bother.  That's four different people and THREE different stories.  Let us all cross out fingers that we actually see guns.  SOON!!

Coffinmaker

PS:  "If" they all sell in "pairs," consecutive numbers will be almost automatic until they get down to the end of the shipment.  I always
ask for consec numbers.  Consecutive numbers are nice.  In the long view, meaningless, but kinda neat.  Again, let us cross our
collective fingers, hoping EMF's man on the spot ain't blowing smoke up our Kilts.

All I can do is report what the guy told me after a long conversation.  I picked up a pair of Ruger Old Armies at the match.  They are in my safe.  I don't have to guess if I will get them.   

[Major 2]

Please post some actual photos and range report when possible. I really-really want to see an improved grip shape.
My Dad has a number of Pietta Navies in several configs...& I like....but just don't point like my Ubertis.

I'm expecting a new arrival next week myself....& will post a pic or two. Although it is a cartridge pistola (on my bucket-list). But in this case I'm hoping to shoot the bucket, rather than kick-it. Or at least in that order.

Here you go Slim, Coffinmaker sent these to you  (VIA me to post )

they should clearly show the two ....

The difference IMHO is enough to perform a  tail docking

as this tutorial shows ....http://www.cascity.com/forumhall/index.php/topic,47437.0.html

there is also a U-Tube Video

Happy Docking
