Didn't Happen! Not There!

Well I can not find a functional camera so I do not currently have on the desk here a Brass framed Pietta .44 COlt style something or other.
Sort of recent manufacture (mark is CC and I do not have my chart handy mid to late 200x?) Odd thing is it has the stepped .44 cylinder, but the wide portion of the cylinder has the Navy scene. Another oddity is that dispite being a cheapo brasser it has safety pins on the back of the cylinder. Otherwise it is your basic pietta octagonal barrel .44) "Reb" Actually the wood looks decent under the stain and finish and I am tempted to try chemical strippers on it and refinish it.

Action feels tight, light, and looks good. The brass has irregular staining so I may strip it down to the shine and let it green naturally and evenly. Picked it off a table at a show for a C-note.

I have not shot it yet but that is OK as there are no pictures so it does not yet exist!

For a moment I thought you were playing along with the invisible pictures theme...

CC makes it made in 2008. Brass framed, .44 cal, octagonal barrel makes it a non-historically correct Schneider and Glassick

FIngers, yeah I read that thread..... but....

Darkex,

Sort of, I have a Cabella's marked Reb Nothing also, but it has no Navy scene and no safety pins like this newer gun. I also thought initially that you were playing with the "no pictures" line of thought.

ALso old timers stand by for another Klunker post....if I find out what the rest of the family did with the #^**&$%^@! digital camera. (Stupid horse shows!)
