Seeing some new offerings from Pietta on Gunbroker

[drobs]

Have these always been out there and I never noticed them till now or are they new? I'm in the market for a 1851 Navy 36. I might have to the grab one of these cut down ones.

I have been seeing those same guns.
Ive not seen them until lately.
My sheriffs models are my favorites....but the short levers make them harder to load.

Can the anchor be removed from the gun after the loading lever is taken out ? I'm thinking I read it can't, but not sure. If not, do you have trouble cleaning it ?

The second one marked as a 1860 sheriff fluted .36 caliber appears to be a .44 as the cylinder has the rebate, or "step" that was only present on .44 caliber Colts.

Are you refering to the Remington style?
If you remove the loading lever, the arbor will be completely removeable.


If you're refering to the Colt....I don't know what you mean by "anchor."

Looks like they used the wrong stock photo but you never know.

Thinking it's an 1862 or a grab bag.

Really like the 1858 Remington with the 5 1/2" barrel and the color case hardened frame. The checkered wood grips are a nice plus too!

Is it me or are some of the prices a little inflated?
Must be a summer thing?

Could be the reason I've never noticed these models before. When I look at Gunbroker, I have Cabela's sale prices in my mind and haven't looked at higher priced guns.

I really like the looks of this one. I have one from Cabela's with an all-blue finish and uncheckered stocks and it feels really nice in the hand.
