tomykay12 February 3, 2013, 12:07 PM Hi. Can anyone enlighten me on this Pietta model? Out of production I assume. What is the difference between the 1860 and 1862, not counting the pocket models? Pietta historical fabrication? Thanks everyone so much, tk

swathdiver February 3, 2013, 01:06 PM Sounds like a cut down 1860 Army. Fingers McGee February 3, 2013, 04:24 PM Sounds like a cut down 1860 Army. What he said tomykay12 February 3, 2013, 05:33 PM Kinda what I thought. As far as i can tell, the 1861's are 36 cal only? Thanks again for helping me square away this basic info. Really looking forward to BP shooting, tk AJumbo February 3, 2013, 06:32 PM They're actually a .44 caliber 1851, cut down to 5 1/2". Never existed "back in the day," but more fun than a box of puppies. I want two! tomykay12 February 3, 2013, 08:24 PM The one I am looking at looks like an 1860.....not 1851. Hmmmm woodnbow February 3, 2013, 11:25 PM Pietta did make a sheriffs model version of the 1860. nice looking piece. I think Cabelas used to stock them. Prairie Dawg February 3, 2013, 11:29 PM Taylors was having a Christmas special on them. Basically an 1860 cut to 5.5". They offered it with two cylinders. One was half-fluted. One was roll engraved. $200 A helluva deal. I bought two of them. --DAwg
