    '58 Rem Carbine

    Thank you Jimmy. (Yuma Kid) My wife said tell you and your wife hello. She's taking nap right now. I think those Carbines are going to work out just fine. I like them. I can hold it 2 handed or just hold in in one hand. Yeah, that ICOM is a pretty good unit. I'vd had it and used it for years...

    '58 Rem Carbine

    Okay! Just got off of live chat with Cabela's. Kim answered and switched me over to Ryan in the product specialist division. Ryan put me on 'hold' for a few minutes while he talked it over with a couple of his friends. Everybody agreed. The lube will help protect the wood. (Rub it on lightly...

    '58 Rem Carbine

    What do ya'll think about this 'Cabela's Muzzle loading Lube'? Seem's like pretty good stuff the best I can tell. Then again I have no experience with it. I have rubbed the stocks on the Carbines with it (sort of liberally) to help make them shine and to protect them. Well, my wife suggested it...

    '58 Rem Carbine

    RCFlint..Wheww! That's some good range! I know I read that the 1858 Armies with the 8 inch barrels and fixed sights come factory ranged for around 70 to 80 yards. Carbine has the 18 inch barrel so that's some extra for sure but I never thought about anything even close to 200 yards. What kind of...

    '58 Rem Carbine

    Okay, both of them ranged in good at 50 yards. Both of them are scrubbed clean and lubricated and the bores swabbed out with Bore Butter Wiped down good with all the smears and fingerprints gone and sitting over there out of the way. My wife love's them. I kind of love them myself. I think we...

    Thank you. I'm sorry the pictures are blurred out. I'll read up and study a little on using the camera. My wife's out there now with one. She's shot 4 times so far. Ooops! There goes the 5th shot. She'll bring it in for me to dis-assemble while she goes out with the other one. I want to make...

    '58 Rem Carbine

    Okay, this is a start. The bottom one is already loaded all the way around. My wife is going outside in a moment to range them in at 50 yards. Sorry about the pictures. We are just learning. We use a computer here at home constantly but not for sending photos. She said tell ya'll she will fix up...

    '58 Rem Carbine

    SWMBO- What the hell does that mean?!..Wife plugged in the chargers about 20 minutes ago. She said she will help me get the pictures posted. Carbines came in about 30 minutes ago. Wife is wiping them down now. Each Carbine was in a separate box with the name UBERTI on it and some other writing...

    ASM Baby Dragoon or...?

    Mr. Mnrivrat, just don't you worry about it sir. You went out of your way to try and help me and I appreciate it..The 4 inch barrel with the squared guard may exist out there somewhere but my wife searched hard on this computer for over a week and she couldn't find anything about one plus a...

    '58 Rem Carbine

    Tinpan58. Okay thanks. When we first get them and get them wiped down good the last thing we'll do before setting them back out of the way is to check all the screws. I'll tell her to keep a close eye on the loading lever screw when she shoot's it. (On all of the screws in fact). One person...

    ASM Baby Dragoon or...?

    Yes sir, pretty picture and I appreciate the trouble you must have went to. I saved the entire article to my favorites. It is indeed a beautiful firearm. However, it is the Colt 1849 Pocket .31 with the 5 inch barrel. Since you are kind enough to try and help me, then please find me a picture...
