Thank you.
I up to dated my profile but with few other informations.
My shooting preference ? easy, 1858 and 1873. I have big hand and these guns fit better in mine.
 
Welcome to THR. Post frequently and give us your prespective of the industry there in al patire. :)
 
Welcome from the remote desert of Utah, near the famous Pony Express Trail.
I regularly shoot a Pietta-made reproduction of the Colt 1860 Army. Marvelous firearm. Accurate, finely made and a joy to shoot.
I'd be very interested to hear what the Pietta Firearms Co. is up to. I hope to get to Italy someday, to see for myself.
Glad to have you here.
 
Welcome.

I shoot a Pietta 1851 Navy. One of my favorite guns. I would like to know, has Pietta considered making any long arms? I think I pietta 1873 Winchester would be great! :)
 
Everybody join in this chant: "Factory Tour! Factory Tour! Factory Tour!" :)

Thank you for making convenient packages of spare parts for the Army and Navy Revolvers (through Dixie Gunwork).

I owned one of your LeMat Cavalry Models and will have another in a few months. Extremely well made revolvers.

Anything you could tell us about the size and scope of the replica industry would be most interesting. I am particularly interested in any educated guess about the number of people who shoot or are involved with percussion pistols and revolvers.

Thanks
 
Welcome to THR Alchimista:
You know me from the Cowboy Action Forums as Fightin Creek Slim. Always great to see another member of SCORRS here. I just bought another Pietta 58 Remington last month to add to my growing collection of Pietta's including 1851 Navies and 1860 Armies. I've been shooting my Pietta's with R&D cylinders in CAS competition. Those Pietta Remingtons can be very accurate My friend Papa Bear did very well with his Stainless Pietta 58 in the NSSA California state championships last month, One of a pair of revolvers that he shoots regularly in CAS competition.
 
Welcome, and thanks for the fine replicas!!

I own three of your 1860 Colts, two 1858 Remingtons, a Starr DA, and a "Navy Model" Le Mat.

The Le Mat is the single most finely made and finished reproduction revolver that I've ever seen. A true joy to own and to shoot!

Personally, my sincere thanks for making it possible for those of us with great curiousity, but limited means, to have the opportunity to own and shoot examples of such rare and fascinating firearms.

Is there some chance that we will see examples of any other rare historically significant pistols in the future? Perhaps an Adams, Tranter, or Savage ?
