A friend has the urge for a good single-action revolver. The Colt SAA is too expensive for him, and recent ones seem to have quality issues.
He is hesitant to get a Uberti (including the Uberti-made Beretta Stampede) because he has heard that the metallurgy isn't great, and that screw heads and springs are sometimes soft and/or brittle.
He wonders about the USFA guns that are (even in the less costly Rodeo) supposedly better put together than a Colt. And asked me about something called an AWA. That one, I don't know...
He has Rugers; what he wants now is the closest thing he can fnd to a Colt SAA with good steel and quality control.
Anyone familiar with these guns care to comment?
Among the Uberti-made items, is the Cimarron line the best option? Cimarron claims that they pay for extra care in production.
Thanks,
Lone Star
