I had a brass tg/bs on my Jager Dakota for better than 25 years, I hated it. It didn't do nuttin bad, it fit well, I even put one piece Boone Trader poly ivory grips on it...(I dropped the gun and chipped the grips...) but that damn tg/bs held up fine. I finally got a set of brass that was black nickel plated and sold them brass ones in less than a day on the SASS wire....
NOw folks are putting on 1860 tg/bs which are at least half brass. so go figure.
but the work just fine, unless you plan on hammerin up wanted posters with em.
