Title: Moved to gunsmithing
Post by: LeftyLarry on November 24, 2020, 08:58:15 AM

I have it in my head I need to acquire a Uberti Schofield but intend to shoot BP, and given it's short blast bushing on the cylinder it is given to binding. My intention is to repeat a modification I have seen where the blast bushing is replaced with a removable bushing that is longer. Now in order to get things to fit the cylinder bushing quill will have to be removed to rebate the area below the bore to allow for a longer blast bushing on the cylinder.

So without having the pistol in hand yet can anyone advise me how the cylinder quill (part no 187 on the parts breakdown) is affixed and how to remove it?

Thanks in advance, if this project gets off the ground expect pictures and progress reports.
