All three have worked fine for me. So for me they are not kits but functional guns. All depends on what you are looking for.
Silver Rings
Hear and understand what your saying Silver Rings, but even if a shooter isn't trying to pump five-ten shots into Johnny Ringo, I and I believe most shooters who layed down what the Open Tops/Richard Masons cost, want them to function as designed and reliably. I as a gun owner and shooter even if I'm thumbing back the hammer and squeezing the trigger in slow sequence, I want all the internals to be working and performing as they're suppose to, whether shooting in competition or shooting tin cans. As I previously penned, two of the three Uberti open top style handguns I purchased had timing issues. Did they shoot, Yep, everytime I pulled the trigger. Did they perform as designed, Nope. Bolt peaning of the cylinder caused by to short of leg coming off the cam, poor bolt/cylinder lead interaction. MY Richards II other than just a little polishing and stoning of the internals was/is free of any timing problems or anything else I have seen. This and other forums are filled with posts of problems shooters have had with their Italian made Colt and Remington made to look like guns of yesteryear. Some shooters like you and others say they haven't had problems, others report 'wailing and gnashing of teeth' with the problems they encounter with the firearms they laid down dollars for. Suspect it's as on the automobile lines, depends if you get one made close to lunch hour, quitting time, or late Friday afternoon.
One expert gunsmith from this forum I had PM's with about my Open Top advised of a truthfull statement. Advised me that they (the workers at the Uberti plant in Italy) slap them together and send them down the line to the next guy. What the gunsmith said was true. "Production" is the key at Uberti and you can forget about Cimarron's old claim that they pay extra for extra fitting, about as true as one persons claim currently in politics about their Benghazi and e-mail claims. That's the problem, production and cost is the bottom line in corporations today, profit is needed, but craftsmanship and quality take a back seat to often. Poor employee attitude at businesses takes a toll also. I've seen it first hand in the years I was working. I saw it recently at a major well known business related to the shooting sports. Too many workers out in the labor force that don't give a crap or hoot in H' about the quality of the product they turn out, just waiting for that Friday paycheck. I bet it's no different at Uberti's or Pietta's gun plants, there are those who don't care about the quality of the product, let someone else worry about it.
Silver if you obtained three Open Tops without any timing or other problems, your one lucky guy. I didn't and a lot of other shooters didn't either. I personally like what I buy and shoot to be 'clickin' like a time clock, whether I'm thumb bustin all six beans in the wheel as if my life depended on it or takes me six days to shoot all six. I wouldn't tolerate a guitar that wouldn't keep the G string in tune even though it still played. I can recall back in the early 70's and even since also, seeing some percussion six guns that looked as if monkeys in a zoo put em together, poor fit, finish, action, you name it-pure junk! OK, getting off my soapbox. No opposition or animosity to ya, just have a different view of what I've seen and demand. You and all take care and safe shootin.
