Hi all, Thought I would ask for some opinions. Do you think that changing an 1851 Pietta Sheriff model to an 1860 Pietta Sheriff is an okay thing to do? I've thought about doing that, when and if the necessary parts become available? I may be waiting a long time but that's okay. I have weighed the thoughts of just outright buying an 1860 44 cal since the price really isn't that much more to do just that. I do however like the shorter barrel on the Pietta Sheriff models. I also realize that this is a "fantasy" revolver. I've spoken with a nice person at VTI and they told me the barrel and loading lever assembly would be on back order if I decided to go that route. I've noticed that a lot of folks out there have made some of their own creations with various parts with some great success. I may not be thinking of everything as I should. Has anyone out there ever done this before? I would appreciate any feedback. I have thick skin, so fire away. Thank you,
Tim
