    cartridge chamber units

    Just want to add that it if one does exists, you might run into accuracy issues or leading if you use lead bullets. Most .45 Colt ammo uses a .451 or .452 bullet but the .45-70 uses a .458.

    True Grit problem

    It has been a while since I have watched the movie, I only remembered the quote not the gun, which is why I said they might have used a walker but called it a Dragoon. Thanks for the screen shots showing it.

    True Grit problem

    Just to point out, one line in the John Wayne version calls the pistol a "Colts Dragoon". I don't know if they used a walker and called it a dragoon or not, but I do remember JW calling it a Dragoon. The quote from the movie goes: "Why, by God, girl, that's a Colt's Dragoon! You're no...

    Purgatory

    Hey Crow, sorry for the late reply. Yes the fight scene was extremely good. Black Spot you are right, he did a very good job at pulling those pistols.

    Hey Black Spot, I watched the movie and they appeared to be 1851 Navies that were converted to cartridge.

    No Lube?!

    You are probably right steelbird, but I live in the middle of no and where, and I wasn't going to go anywhere for something to get the pin out. I tapped it alternatively on each side and it slowly worked its way out.

    No Lube?!

    Going from my experience, there is no way I can get 50 shots off with my 1858 Pietta replica. Max I have gotten with absolutely no lube is about 36 shots and by that time it is binding up badly. Ended up having to beat the cylinder pin off because it was so bad. I do use the lube pills myself...

    Cap and Ball revolvers,are these legal in NY,MA?

    They are allowed to pass laws that are more restrictive than the fed, but have to enforce fed law if their own laws are more lenient. That being said, I don't believe that state or fed should pass laws restricting anything in the Constitution.

    An easier (for me) method of making paper cartridges.

    I do it this way, but I still put paper and all in the chamber.

    Front End View of 45 Colt in Action

    Just throwing in my couple of pennies, I think the title says the warning. I clicked it because I wanted to see the "Front View in ACTION" If I found it offensive, I would not have checked a thread with that title.

    Movie gun myths/reality comparison/debunked

    I think the directors play too many video games using the "unlimited ammo cheat" The shotgun thing bothers me too. What I love the most though is the movies where the person racks the shotgun, then a few minutes later does it again. If I remember right it was done in Stargate.

    Senate Bill SB-2099!

    Did you even read the link to Snopes? Or just repost without even checking things out because it says Snopes so it has to be true? FROM YOUR LINK: "An August 2009 version of the Blair Holt e-mail combined it with a Handgun Safety and Registration Act (SB2099) e-mail that falsely claims a bill...

    I love the TV shows where every time they pull up a pistol you hear the cocking sound, no matter what the pistol is!
