Just before Christmas I ordered 2 of Hoof Hearted's new Thuer drop in conversions.  One for an Uberti 1860 and one for a Pietta 1860, both .45 cal.   Can't think of a better way to start a new year!  Maybe HH will chime in and give you guys more details.  Excited!

Well this is a "lesser" version of my original Thuer® re-designed as a DROP IN to compete at the Howell/R&D price point.
The first 20 (as of this writing there are 7 slots open) are actual Thuer® rings that have been thinned  to work with a Kirst spec cylinder and the firing pin has been changed to accommodate that change. The production "DROP IN" model will have slightly different indexing lugs, an improved detent, but no faux screws or checkering of the thumb piece.
