Family Portrait.
« on: April 09, 2019, 04:21:40 PM »
My 1976 Vintage Navy Arms (pre-Uberti US made) 1860 Henry in .44-40, along with my Uberti/Cimarron 5.5 inch barreled 1860 Colt Richards Type II conversion and my 8" barreled Pietta 1858 NMA Remington with Kirst Pale Rider Konverter and "Get A Grip" faux-ivory grips.  Both pistols are .45 Colt/Schofield.

That's a cool picture.  It's good to see a happy family gathered together like that.

Thanks! The 1858 Remington is bad about "knuckle knock" on the middle finger with full power loads.  I am hoping the checkered, slightly smaller faux-ivory grips will eliminate that with a better grip.  If it does, I may replace the 5.5 barreled Richards with a 5.5" barrel 1858 NMA with a Kirst gated Konverter.  The Remmies are a stronger platform, and more durable than the open top Colts.
