I'll start with my Cimarron/Uberti 1858 Gated Conversion in .45

My wife dubbed this 'The Dandy.'  Home-made conversion in .44 Colt


This is 'The Pug.' Uses a Kirst .45 Colt gated conversion


This one is too new to have a name- home-made five-shot cylinder chambered for .450 Adams. Still need to install the firing pin and cut the loading port.

You might recall this one TL , you traded to me along with $$$$ for the Peck Spencer, do you recall ?
It sported these mircarta grips for short while after I got it from you back in 07, then I swapped back to the refinished OEM grips.

I sold it last year to fund a 32-20 SAA ....


when planets align...do the deal !

I put the pair together for match pistols. They have both been sleeved to .38spl. One is an R&D drop-in and one a Kirst conversion.

The other pistol is a Beals wannabe. I shaped the loading lever and tapered a stainless sight to resemble the Beals from the side. It needs a few other mods to really look like a Beals but this was made for a match backup pistol so it's not going to get much more done to it for now. It has a .45 Colt R&D drop-in cylinder.

EDIT: These are all made by Uberti.

Remmies don't fit my hands, but I snapped a pic of this nice one that shipped to Vermont back in 2010.
