I`ve always been a stickler for historically correct Revolvers , and my collection is complete ....When someone said the Ruger Old Army was the finest cap and ball Revolver ever built ..My reply was alway ..for who`s Army ??
So now they are no longer makeing the ROA ..and I start giveing them a closer look ..I shoot alot almost every weekend if it doesn`t rain , been pounding my Remingtons and Colt reproductions hard for the last few years they`ve held up well , much better than I thought they would .
I figure as much as I enjoy shooting cap and ball revolvers , why not step into the 20th century ..buy a cap and baller made in the 70`s ..1970`s ..might even wear tennis shoes when I shoot it ..and a base ball cap lol.
It would be nice to shoot one thats stainless steel has adjustable sights and can handle any load I want to put throught it ....and is probally the best cap and ball revolver ever made in the USA in the 20th century ..Hey that makes it historically correct ....now I feel better .......I just bought ONE ! ..can`t wait to shoot it !
