Zulch, I read on the cap and ball website that in 2020 uberti went to putting the last two digits of the year in the box. According to the same site yours was made in 2004

No problem, that’s why I’m here, to learn as much as I can and have fun doing it while making new friends.

Thanks for posting that again Hawg. I'm going to put it in it's own post, and pin it somewhere that's easily found.

Thanks Hawg and Shotgun. It will be nice to quickly go to this if we find one for sale and need to know.

Hi kwc271, there are few BP revolvers that are a cool as the Walker. Attached is a photo of my two Walkers. The one on top was a kit that I had nitride finished. The bottom Walker is original Uberti.with a cylinder that I nickel finished. As you may know, Walker cylinders were never blued because it would soften the work hardened wrought iron cylinder. Both Walkers has had the arbor length fixed. I regularly shoot .45 Colt using a conversion cylinder with them. My wife now getting up in age suggested I get a walker for her. I told her that I already had two that I could loan her. LOL  (7+" (7+" (7+"

Regards,
Richard

I agree with Mick. The bottom one is outstanding.
