Now, I know you guys have not posted a pic of every gun you own. And it's been nearly a year since the last photo posted here! So come on, get busy! Let's see some pix of that new thunder stick, or some new pix of your old guns! After all, the eye candy is what everyone really wants to see!

My 1851 R.E. Lee Colt Commemorative revolver and my new .62 cal smoothbore English Heavy Dragoon Flintlock pistol.
My biggest concern is that when I pass away, my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them.

...and one of my Remington's, a 1999 Pietta .44 with a very early Kirst .45 Colt conversion cylinder I bought in 2001. Action job by Nate Kiowa Jones circa 2002.

Here is my Pietta '58 Remington "Shooters' Model with progressive rifling .457 round ball, silver plated trigger guard, and authentic Remington barrel address stamp. Very accurate. Paid $250 for it back in 2011 in the Cabela's Bargain Cave.

My Remington Bulldog outside enjoying the Ft Myers sun! 4” barrel and rounded grip frame and somewhat antiqued finish. It was originally a Pietta Sheriffs model. Sorry about the first squished picture!

Thanks! I need to install a slightly stronger spring in the loading lever so it doesn’t fall down when I shoot it. I installed the latch on the other end so it locks into the end of the cylinder pin. The original spring broke in half for some reason when I removed it so I’m using half of one right now.Besides that it shoots great and feels good with the birdshead grip.

That looks terrific! Just in case you missed it, Taylor's is having a sale on drop-in cylinders for the NMA in .45LC right now. Just sayin'...

Thanks but I have a Howell conversion cylinder already for the Remmy, and I need to save up for one for my Roger’s & Spencer!
