I'd like to practice more for cowboy action shooting and I swear somebody used to make SAA clone airguns but so far my searches haven't turned up anything.

Help would be appreciated as my backyard won't be too conducive to anything much heavier than an airgun.

Thanks

Much heavier?

If you don't get in trouble with the law for using a firearm, there are other options.

The two that come to mind first are .22 CB or Super Colibris in a .22 revolver, and reusable plastic bullets in your regular centerfire. Use primers only for propulsion.

Your memory is fine.

I thought I remembered seeing something similar more recently but maybe not.

If you try the "primer only" loads you may need to ... what's the technical term? ... waller out the primer flash holes lest your loads tie up against the recoil shield.

Then, there's this thing. They're fun!

Crossman used to make SA CO2 pelletgun revolvers. Believe I've even seen pictures/references to 'em being available as a "kit" for quick draw back during the craze for that stuff decades back. I've run across a few of the guns here and there and have acquired both .177 and .22 versions to help get through the long winter months.

Couple other outfits have made CO2 BB versions, too.
