Have you seen pictures of Uberti’s 12 shot Cattleman?
Having missed the USFA 12/22, I am inclined to get one. But I don’t like what I see in their photos. They may be artistic renderings, but I am seeing chambers further to the outside of the cylinder. If so, they will have messed with the Colt’s center pin to center bore measurement. And I don’t think I can abide that.
Other than that… they probably appropriated the basic USFA design eh? I wish that would have come off with more fruition, I thought it had a lot of appeal.
Whats the basic engineering principle? Move the hand pivot closer to the hammer pin, get less hand travel?
