HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP
I have been searching for the holy greal for some time now, and come to the conclusion that every manufactor of replica firearms are absolutly the best !! check the homepages, they actually all write that, of course you can read between the lines and get the info you want, but when it comes to 1873, you get almost no usefull info at all, its all about the finish, mate, nickel, antique, blued ect ect, then there is the grips ect ect ,maybe spend a million on some famus guy putting some engravings on it, ahhh yes i forgot, they all claim to be better that the real deal, but hey with 135 years production evolution, that shouldnt be so hard. So can someone give me some real info, who should i pick if i want to have tears rolling down my face when i pick the baby up ?
I have tested an Italian Uberti now, after looking at the pictures on Ubertis homepage, and reading hours about how good they are, and how much time they use on perfecting theire weapons, developing and producing far better tolerences than colt ect ect, i cant explain how disapointed i got when i picked it up at the local dealer, sharp unpolished edges you could cut your fingers on, all moving parts was far too tight, i mean the whole thing was just a really hmmmm thing...
So i learned my first lesson, dont trust the colorfull words of the manufactor, and dont look at the shiny most certanly fake pictures they all seam to have..
Can someone tell me where to go ...im in love with the USFA john wayne gun, blue w, ivory grips 1899,- USD absolutly fantastic, but im not gonna buy anything before someone give me some advise, USFA got lots of nice guns, and good options, but is it another shiny internet picture company, or are they for real ? what about COLT, i hear all over the internet - overpriced and low quality ???? im confused
Also, i want to buy a winchester 1873, 45LC or 44.40 - if someone can tell me where to go for that, i would be very happy - i have been told that winchester is not the best place to buy, that the copies are of higher quality, but its just what i have been told....
If someone bothered to read this post till end, and maybe even bothered to help me, i´d like to thank them in advance....
