General Discussion / Aftermarket nipples
« on: March 11, 2016, 07:13:28 PM »
Finally got my Uberti '62 Police (5 shot) models in. Can anyone tell me if the aftermarket nipples will fit the cylinders on the .31 size pistols.

General Discussion / .36 caliber for Frontiersman?
« on: January 11, 2016, 05:04:51 AM »
I was talking with another bp fanatic about setting up a pair of Pietta '62 Colt Police models for Frontiersman.  He said that he stàrted out with .36's but went to .44's because the spotters kept calling misses because they couldn't hear the balls hitting the steel. Any thoughts on this? I currently shoot '58 Remmies but the colts seem to feel better in my hand.

General Discussion / how to finish?
« on: June 01, 2015, 07:28:48 AM »
I was going through some boxes of (for lack of a better word) gun crap. I found an old cap gun I had bought as a kit back in the early 80's. If I remember correctly it was a CVA "Reb" revolver. I had finished the final buffing of the the brass and steel but never blued the the steel parts. What would be a good way to finish the steel? I like the antique look of the bare steel but would like something more rust proof.

Welcome Wagon / Hello from SE Georgia

I started shooting black powder in the late 70's. Bought my first cap n ball revolver around 1980. My SASS alias is Hogleg Hunter and I am a familiar face at a lot of the matches in Florida and Georgia.  I usually shoot Frontier Cartridge or Frontiersman categories (both are BP categories).
