Upon reading an article done by Mr. Taffin...
I find I'm always a little smarter having done so. That is a real value in my view. Not all articles are such.
Really enjoyed the little write up for AMERICAN HANDGUNNER/GUNS on 1875 and 1890 Remingtons. After some 50 years of collecting I have yet to sample them and they are still on the list. I have owed 1858's, a 1863, and a couple little Ruger Bearcats (a baby sort of copy).
We have begun to dabble in some of the
black powder revolvers, mainly the 1858, with the new Avenger series. That is a bit odd in that black powder is illegal here in this county so we can't do a lot of load testing. But they are still fun to design and build.
Our first one in 44 caliber built on the shorter barrel Sheriff's model.

The second one again in 44 caliber and current one on the in stock list...slightly longer barrel and solid frame.
