Uberti Paterson

Is it possible to wear out nipples? With correct use, not dry firing.

I would like to have one too, but let's be clear -- the Paterson was an unsuccessful design, and Colt's company went bankrupt making them. These facts contribute to the rarity of original Patersons today. If the Patersons had been successful, they wouldn't be nearly as valuable.

I had one until a few years ago. It was a pain to load, I had the tool, cheaply made of soft steel, the trigger pull was heavy and owing to the trigger being smallish hard on the finger as well. It was pretty however, looked fine on its stand with the others and I deeply regret trading it away.

I traded mine too and it was fairly decent shooting revolver. Wished I had it now...

The flash hole will burn to oversize after enough use.
