It's not what I would choose for a first or one and only percussion revolver but it's sustainable now that Cimarron and VTI stock parts for it.

Dismounting one of these is good in one respect. It makes you really appreciate how easy it is to disassemble one of the later Colts.

50 Feet- "Duelist". This one has a lighter trigger than often reported. The grip looks funny and the trigger juts out in kind of an odd manner but it is only a little harder to hit with than the Navy's and other Colt Replicas.

the tool has a pick, screwdriver and ram assembly for loading. Unfortunately, the thing is made of pot metal and will break if you try to seat bullets with it.
