Thanks for the suggestions. I don’t have any brass lunches or rods i can use but i saw somewhere else that putting the base pin in the loading side and tapping on it has worked and i tried that but it didnt move at all so i dont know if tapping on a brass punch would get the job done

I just got a uberti cattleman SAA and just took it all apart for cleaning. However, i couldnt get the cylinder bushing out. I was told the gun was made in ‘93 so maybe no one took it out to clean and its just stuck, but i was wondering if uberti ever made their cattleman’s without a removable...

Thanks for your help, i should have the tools to do it so i just might

I just bought an uberti cattleman (Colt SAA clone). Its works great except the pin that holds the firing pin in place has fallen out a couple times. So hopefully someone out there knows how i can secure the pin in its position. Thanks

I dont shoot black powder cartridge guns to much but i have an original first model 1873 winchester in great shootable condition. And i was just wondering if i could use some 44-40 magtech cowboy loads in it or would it have to be black powder loads? Any responses are appreciated and thank you.

I have a traditions kentucky rifle which is a great and accurate gun. But i wanted to get it to shoot more point of aim. And the primitive dovetail sights are just too tight and wont push over. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way of loosening up the dovetail. Ive tried using a hammer and...

I figure ill use this until it gives put then ill either try to fix it of sell it. I was just pissed off and done with the gun so i decided to see what i could do and so far it works well.

I might do that later once it completely stops working.

I tride to use stones and files before but i couldnt get the angle i needed and as long as it works i only use it a few times a year anyway. And i know not to point a loaded gun or any gun in an unsafe direction.

I was afraid of breaking the case hardening but now the gun works snd while the metal may be soft in one point it is a cheap plinker i paid a hundred bucks for at a gun show and now it works.

I just took a dremel to the full cock sear on the hammer and now the gun locks back every time unless i fan the hammer with my finger off the trigger and then it falls on half cock. But i think the tip of the trigger is the problem as well.

And the hammer does reset to the forward position.

I did open it up and the trigger spring seems fine. And i cant seem to find anything wrong on the inside but when i do get the hammer back i barely tap the trigger and the hammer falls on half cock. And in order to get an actuall trigger pull where the hammer reaches the cylinder, i have to jerk...

I have an old armi san marco 1858 remington new model army with a brass frame that was made in the 80's. I bought it a year ago and it was working and shooting great but a few months ago I was having problems with the hammer staying back. Now it has gotten worse and it will never stay back. I'm...

Thanks for all you input and i think i might just start reloading 45 colt.

Well do you think that a 200 grn fmj 45 acp would gennerate enough pressure to dammage the gun? And would it be safe to fire a 45 lrn that goes 830 fps (not cowboy load)? Im trying to figure out what i can and cant use and thanks for all the responses.

Thanks for the reply it was very helpful. But i wonder how a brand new uberti would do with jacketed rounds.

I'm thinking about getting a 45 acp kirst konverter for my uberti remington new model army and on the kirst website it aays not to use fmj bullets and probably 90% of 45 acp bullets are fmj. And with the ammo drought I really dont want to go around the world looking for a place that has 45 acp...

By law yes which still makes it legal i just dont plan on taking a chunk of steel and milling out a whole revolver like one reponder said.

I'm just looking to convert a revolver im not going to fully manufacture one from scratch.
