Appreciate the offer sir, it would be a new direction for me. Now I need to make a decision, Sig P229 Legacy in .40 or Pietta 1858 Black Powder revolver... Maybe I can convince the wife to get me both for Christmas@nammac
Pietta makes a good replica of Colt and Remington revolvers...
I like the 1860 Army the best....Uberti makes a fine replica as well.
If you ever have an BP questions...I'd be happy to add to your confusion...

Violent felons allowed guns - what a great idea!
Thanks Andy, sounds like a great starting point. That Pietta at $290 is looking mighty attractive.Very Nice...!
A high polish may even give a faux nickle look.
A good starting load for a .44 BP revolver is :
20-28 grains of 2 or 3 F , a lubed wad , and a .454 round ball.

BAYONET CHARGE!!!!!I can see it now, Bloods and Crips equipped with Model 1891 Argentine Mausers and 1898 Krags...
Theres some good deals in the classifiedsThanks Andy, sounds like a great starting point. That Pietta at $290 is looking mighty attractive.
Yes, Federal law says something about cartridge, too lazy to look it up, which is why you can mail order the replicas. Now each state does it different. In this state for example an air gun is a firearm. So all depends on how a state defines it. If they just copied the feds way of defining it then yes, all could legally own one.According to the ATF Investigator that went over all the major regs, federal and state, told me there is no federal law preventing felons from own BP weapons, but in Oregon it is illegal. Is he right? I have no idea, but that is was I was told.
Gewehr 98? Bah. We don't need no foreign iron--"Civilize 'em with a Krag"A Mauser C96, Gewehr 98 & Winchester Model 1897 should get the job done.
