Two days ago, I bought an 1860 Army, .44 cal. bp replica. Here is the kicker: It was made in 1979 (AE) and it has not been fired...yet. It was some new-old stock that the local gunshop was selling off. It has no box or accessories; just the revolver by itself. It has a very nicely finished barrel (8") and a steel, color case-hardened frame. The backstrap though, is brass, as is the trigger guard. The grip is a nice one-piece european walnut. The cylinder has a navy battle scene on it. Is that correct? The barrel/cylinder gap is very tight, and the lock-up on the cylinder is rock solid. The hammer is a little clunky looking; not like the newer Uberti or Pietta guns. The manufacturer logo is the letters D,G and G intertwinded, with a circle surrounding them. It was imported by EMF. I paid $220 plus tax. Sorry I don't have pics yet. Are any of you familiar with that DGG company? Did I pay too much for what it is? Thanks for any info.
