Hello all,
I understand that this model is a creation of imagination and not historically correct. I had a discussion on another board and learned that this model is actually a '60 frame and cylinder with a '51 "style" barrel in .44. This sounded reasonable enough, but I would like a second opinion. Can I take a conversion cylinder in 45LC (five chamber) for the Colt 1860 and use it in a steel framed historically incorrect 1851 Colt? I am one of those pain in the a$$ people that know what they like and want what they want, even if that means creating a franken pistol to have it . I love the looks of the full length '51, as opposed to the Marshall version, and want it in .44 with a conversion in .45LC . What do you think?
Many thanks.
