    Remington 1858 Cylinder Pin

    What I did with my "Gunslinger" "58" Remy 5 and 5 1/2 inch bbls was to Hinge the Cylinder pin. It was hinged just inside the frame, NOT INSIDE THE CYLINDER). I hinged it so I could move the loading lever catch to the proper place back from the muzzle. You can buy tiny chain links,(as in single...

    Best 1858 clone?

    If you have smaller hand then I recommend the Armi San Paolo\ Euroarms, it is a opy of the smaller framed Remington - Beals Old Arm, Elliots Transition to NMA, Second model(barest of relief at the breech with some NMA refinements, but still the smaller Remington - Beals Frame. They are my Pistol...

    Euroarms Conversion Cylinder

    I have never seen a Euroarms anything other than Armi San Paolo. Doesn't preclude being a Uberti, but I am guessing not. Easy enough to tell though if you have a picture. Uberti or anyone else, never made a Remington - Beals Framed copy. If it does not have a scoop relief showing threads at the...

    Euroarms Conversion Cylinder

    Any Conversion Cylinder made for Uberti will fit. Taylors is built by R & D. R & D and Kirst both made for Uberti's will drop right in no problem. I have used them both in Euroarms/Armi San Paolo(maker for Euroarms, until Euroarms bought them out). Now Euroarms 58's are no more as they sold out...

    I hope this is the right place to post this

    Politely tell them thanks but no thanks and you will alert the BP family where not to do business. It irks me when they won't sell a BP gun to CA, where it is legal to own one. I always write them a thanks but no thanks message and then post who won't sell to CA. I'm moving to AZ partially...

    Euroarms Project

    Black Powder Pictures Only!

    The Early ones are very good guns, the later 70's run, eh, maybe not so much but all are better than Italian clones now. Try to find 3 or 4 digit s/n ones and they are good. try to find one that isn't beat up, because some of them get loose arbors, that can be fixed by a good gunsmith, but an...

    which is better/1858 or 1860

    Remington never made a 5 1/2 " bbl pistol (58 Remy) from the factory,(no "Sheriffs or in my case, Gunslinger, ( My cut down 58 Remy reproductions(Euroarms or ASP), Models. But I hazard a guess that many were cut down in the conversion timeframe to clear leather easier than the 8 " bbl's. Look...

    which is better/1858 or 1860

    Being a Fprdyce Beals (Remington - Beal's) admirer, I believe that Beals worked for Whitney, before Remington. I believe Fordyce Beals made some great advancements in firearms during his time.

    Walker Avenging Angel

    Makes me yearn for my Remy Gunslingers to make a reappearance.....or maybe just do this to some Colt repro's too. So many ideas, so little time and less money. If I did that to a Walker I could be "Hand Cannon Harper" and I here by reserve that name. LOL!
