Just for discussion sake....
Here in Pa were not allowed to hunt deer with C&B because BP handguns have to be .50 or larger.
Sooooo...my idea is to rebarrel a ROA with a true .50 Bbl.
( i wonder if you could even get a hank o' .50 Bbl with the correct twist for RB ?)
Then, have a 5 shot cylinder custom made that of course would have to mic larger than .500.
The Bbl theory is quite feesable. But i'm sure the cylinder would be costly.
Not to meantion....what would have to be done with the current timing of the pistol to enable it to operate a 5 shot cylinder correctly ?
I'm goin with a 5 shot because without goin and micin' an OA cylinder to see if there's enough 'meat' i'm just gonna assume from the pics in minds eye there isn't.
I know..costly and a long way to go just to be able to hunt with a C&B six shooter.
But wouldn't it jist be a way cool gun to have and shoot ?
Oh yeah, would probably have to have a custom .500 RB mold made too ?
So..whatay'all think ?
Jim's nuts ?
