Whether a Uberti Walker Cylinder can be fitted to an ASM frame?

I bought this gn in the white and figured it needed some window dressing. This is a work in progress done by a good friend, yes, he's taking in work, PM me and I'll send you his contact info.Lot's more to come, he's about a month away from finishing the piece!! No drooling on the keyboard now !!

I'm watching this travesty unfold in New Town CT and obsessing about how this can be prevented in the future. My solution is this and I have already offered my services to the local police department. I suggest a volunteer corp made up of veterans, combat preferrably, to volunteer one day a week...

If anyone's interested, here's a Merwin Hulbert I just refurbished and put on GB. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=317086604

Linda Burnett, 29 , a resident of San Diego, was visiting her in-laws and while there went to a nearby supermarket to pick up some groceries. Later, her husband noticed her sitting in her car in the driveway with the windows rolled up and with her eyes closed, with both hands behind the back...

Today was the monthly bp shooters match in my area, and the first one I've gone to since the begining of summer....yes I wilt in the heat if you must know. Anyhow, I brought out my trusty 50 cal T/C Renegade lefty as usual and proceeded to shoot my first shot to the left...WHATTT????? Oh no you...

I want to use a smokeless powder in this rifle as the barrel is a mite crusty. I'm using an original Winchester loading tool to load my rounds and it doesn't crimp. Therefore to keep the bullets in place in the magazine, I need a full powder colum in the shell to keep from having the bullet get...

I just found and bought a 1851 brasser (civilian model) made in 1970 with the letters "FAGS" in a box on the bottom of the grip frame. I have NO idea who the manufacturer was and the only other writing is "Cal .36 Navy Model Made in Italy" on one of the side flats. The revolver is in excellent...

Everyone's mom told them that growing up, but how many mom's told their sons they could soak their bp stained brass in Tarn-x and then just rinse and wipe?

To all who wondered if I'd fallen off the edge of the world with this project, 3 bout's of sininusitis and a major case of "Summer Sloth" have finally given way to noticable progress. Everthing has been done to all the mechanical parts, some have been remade and all have been re-furbished and...

It's spendy, but safe on the gun. I have a 45lc conversion cylinder for my R&S and when I want to practice trigger control etc, I load it up wit snap caps and put it in the frame....problem solved. Like I said, spendy, but a safe method to be sure.

I figured out what to do with the barrel after chopping off 5.5in from a 51' Colt And, yes, it does shoot. 350's slide right down the barrel, along with 5g of Goex fff and a lubed wad.

I've read up on "Kroil" and it seems pretty good, but someone posted a mixture of transmission fluid and ?????? as even better. It need's to be deep penetrating. I want to use my "red and green wrench" as last resort.

I found this on ebay, looks like a good one. http://cgi.ebay.com/Black-Powder-Pistols-Loading-Stand-/120636948749?pt=Vintage_Hunting&hash=item1c1685c10d

Anyone ever see one of these? There's a dealer at a local gun show has one. It's like the Remmie pistol/rifle conversion but with a Colt. 44 w/ a brass receiver.

If you load your revolver and compress the bp, what will be different than if you didn't? Obviously you don't want the chamber to have any air space in it so everyone compresses somewhat, but is there a right amount to compress??

I have one of these infamous "law suit" guns and was hoping someone would have some info on it...anything at all. This lawsuit doesn't concern AWA, it was about ASM using Colt markings on their earlier cap and ball reproductions.

WTS 1860 Pietta w/ Conversion Cylinder SOLD!! ...

I have an original R&S, bought it out of pawn shop in Kentucky a few years back and here's the question. It's been rode hard and put away wet and the loading lever # doesn't match the gun, the only inspector mark's I can find are an ( * ), by the front of the trigger housing and a faint...

We occasionally discuss the fluctuation and increase in imported gun prices and the "high", prices of antiques today. It dawned on me after scrolling through GB's antiques, a gun manufactured in the 1800's usually cost at least one month's pay for the working man (cowboy's - $10.00 per month...
