Hi again. It's an odd question but hear me out. I'm looking at picking up a 22 plinker for some heavy duty range time. However, I'd like it to closely replicate the working controls of a service pistol, for training purposes. I am to use this 22 to work away at my shooting foundation, for ISSF...

The stainless steel just looks awesome. But I just don't trust myself with it:) I know I'm gonna scratch it all to hell (holster wear.. I'm terrible..) and it would be a crying shame! Really sexy stuff though.. My brain is telling me to go for .38 for the practical/economical reasons. But I...

Hi, I've been a single action shooter for a couple of years now and definitely have a place in my safe for a top break. A friend of mine has one (a genuine Webley) and I'm a fan of the action. With my fast hands, I reckon I could reload her fast enough to compete in a couple of other events...

Howdy. I've been shooting black powder nearly 7 months now and I reckon I'm getting pretty good. I'm the proud owner of that Uberti Dragoon I keep bragging about on here : ) I'm after cleaning tips. I clean my pistol the hard way. After a typical shoot of 50-100 rounds it's pretty...

I own a Uberti 3rd model Dragoon and have been shooting it for 4 months straight. I love it. I've collected 5 cylinders, put those flash brass nipples on them, make my own lube pills in the kitchen, and shoot it every week. Its been a smooth running straight shooting revolver. I've nearly got it...

Howdy just an update. To answer a couple of stray questions - at the moment I have only 1 cylinder. I have ordered 4 more. he he. I have also ordered 6 of those brass looking nipples that was suggested in this thread. Yes, they do have smaller holes. I am told this reduces the back blast...

I'm back again and a little more experienced with my Uberti Dragoon. God damn thats a hoot to shoot. Admittedly I was heckled at the range while i was fumbling about, what with bore butter up to my elbows and swearing at dropped caps. But the smirks soon disappeared when all the plinkers were...

Thanks for the recipe. I've been asking around about lubes and it seems people only use bore butter. I'll be showing off my own lube pills pretty soon, and hopefully it'll be a trend setter:)The pistol cleaning itself with each shot? Cant wait to try that! I'm in Adelaide, South Australia. We...

I just bought a Uberti Dragoon. There is no problem whatsoever! The wedge is firm enough but I can still break it down without tools. Its hard, but hey maybe i have very stiff thumbs ;) Nearly new. Looks as if the last owner never made it out to the range. Feels and looks superb. I can't wait to...

Again its something I've heard widely conflicting claims about. I've heard some people say that even a dozen rounds is enough to seize up the cylinder and foul the barrel so much, that it not only shoots inaccurately but may also be a safety risk. Taking this topic up with a couple of...

I am considering buying a black powder Uberti. I've heard nothing but good things about them. I am aware, though, how difficult it can be to switch out cylinders in the old open top models. That's just part of the experience, so I'm starting to learn. Ie: expect to have to hammer out the wedge...
