So when it comes to Taylors it's not a myth but the difference we've seen with the Cimarrons is coincidental, correct?
What DJ said, they check em to see if they function. I've bought Ubertis from most of the importers;
Cimarron - pair of Model Ps (worked fine out ot the box, still sent them to Cody for a little action work)
Cimarron Lightings - (would barely function, one had a broken bolt, sent them to Cody, came back like dfferent guns)
Cimarron Win 73 - (action by Cowboys and Indians, wood not as nice as the EMF)
EMF Win 73 (action by Pioneer Gun Works, nicest Uberti I've ever owned, beautifull wood fit and finish)
Taylors Smokewagons - (straight from Cody, nuff said)
The pistols I'm shooting now are EMF Great Western II by Pietta, nice out of the box, I deburred and smoothed them just like I would an Uberti
added a set of Gunslinger springs, now they shoot great.
