--- Quote from: The Pathfinder on July 26, 2022, 07:43:09 AM ---The early Ubertis did indeed have the post front, also had the original style of cylinder pin latch which used a spring on the end of the cylinder pin as opposed the the cross pin like the later Colts used. Now they all use the cross pin. I believe all of the earliest 1875s went to Replica Arms of Ohio back in the early 70s. I believe there may have been less than 400 made that way as I haven't seen or heard of one out of the 3XX range. I have three, two in the 2XX range and also serial # 10.

Yes they did made for Replica Arms which was bought out by Navy Arms I had them with Post sites.  The original I think had the post, I have an old book I got back in 1961, published in 1922, has a drawing of the 1875, with a post site. I am just not sure.  I prefer the post site, but the EMF I have now has a blade site.

Thanks for the responses
