Gentlemen, a robust and sincere Happy New Year to one and all!
Just yesterday I bought this, an Uberti made 1860 Army which someone has aged and removed the barrel banner and I believe the Italian frame markings.
Having picked it up for a great price I'm considering modifying it into this, an 1860 Army snub nose.
I know that the snub nose 'conversion' requires cutting the barrel and re-mounting the front sight, but what else is required ? Have any of you done this operation, how difficult was it ?
I am not completely confident in my own barrel trimming skills.
