In a .357 magnum loaded with hollow points it would make a good little deer gun.
But just in .22LR... I mean... yeah it’s nifty but they’re seriously missing out by not offering this as a combo in .22 WMR.
Anyone have experience with the Pietta .36 caliber Dance Navy revolvers?

All over the October Country homepage, must have just got a load in. They also have them in presentation cases with consecutive serial numbers.
Thoughts?
MUST RESIST...WILLPOWER FAULTERING!!!
If I did buy that beautiful holster set, I’d need another pistol to fill it!! Very cool to see the paper cartridge containers intact. From my research, they were just like a standard musket cartridge but with a .54 caliber ball and less powder.
Here are the cartouches on my stock:
Nice and legible, I don’t think this stock has ever been sanded. I bought the gun because it was the right mix of original unaltered condition and price. As mentioned, so often these can be had with clearly sanded (sometimes totally rounded out) stocks...
Just got back from a Veteran’s Day shoot:
Starting to get the load and sight picture dialed in. I stepped up the powder charge to 35 grains of 2Fg Graf’s black powder and switched to thicker .015” patching. It’s grouping a bit better but still lots of load development needed, which isn’t...
I bought a new Uberti Pocket Navy recently, same gun as yours but with the older style barrel.
It was so awful I packed it up and sent it back for a refund. Night and day difference between it and my Uberti 1858 Remington, which is an excellent gun.
Here’s some better pictures of the gun:
Guys on this Veteran’s Day, don’t forget about the ones who fought back when these guns were state of the art. It’s because of these early soldiers and their sacrifice that we enjoy the country and freedoms we have today! They (and all veterans) shall...
Every 2-300 rounds but my Ruger MkIV is so easy to take down I figure why not and do it. A squirt or two of clip, some brushing and wiping, a bore snake down the middle and reassemble. Takes all of 5 minutes and the gun runs like a sewing machine. I even have some checkered wood grips coming for it.
Got my M1842 Aston horseman’s pistol to the range today, made in 1847:
Shoots great! Works as good as the day it was made. I had the bore relined as it was rather pitted and replaced the nipple with a new one. Pretty accurate too, smoothbore:
Not too often you see a gun that was...
The gold one with ivory grips looks really cool. I have a black Wrangler and kind of want to get faux mother of pearls for it, “just because”. But I can’t find any reasonably priced ones.
