Hi Captain, one more thought. While I love my Pietta's for economical BP shooting, I find the Uberti's, while problematic, do have a special feel in my hand. Maybe it's the idea that the Ubert's are almost exact copies of the originals? I'm not quite sure why I feel that way, but there is something special about handling the Uberti's. Every Uberti that I purchased needed work, maybe it's that fix-'em-up connection that appeals to me. Revolvers just personalized for me?
While I love the Pietta's, I love the Uberti's more.
Regards,
Richard
