My latest shooting video effort

[O.S.O.K.]

Here is a link to my latest effort- had a little bit of a struggle with it this time as I pasted all of the video first and then edited which I think gave me the problems (should have pasted, edited, pasted, edited, etc.) but anyhoo, turned out OK.

Good shooting! What load are you using in that gun?

 

[O.S.O.K.]

how is that thing to load? is it hard to quickly swap the cylinder?

 

[O.S.O.K.]

loading

Loading is a bit slower than a regular revolver as you have to do one cylinder at a time and use the loading tool - I hold the revolver and push down on the tool as it takes some force to seat the bullet. Although the key comes out of this easily, it is time consuming to switch cylinders.

This is really a hide-out or concealed carry type rig - you get 6 shots and that's it so use em wisely!

In the Colt yes long time swap the cylinder
Mod 1858 Rem ?? Nope ( watch Jose Whales )

Well, I'm betting that things were loosened up a bit for Clint so that he could swap them fasssst

But the 58 is much easier to swap cylinders in as you just lower the loading lever a bit and pull the cylinder axis pin out, pull back on the hammer a little and the cylinder just drops out.
