Ah Ha, Coffin Ol' Buddy, the .38 Heel Base project is still alive and well. The 7.5" 1851 has been Konverted, but due to a successful sale on VTI's part, they are out of stock! So the 4" with the birds head grip awaits conversion before I venture further.
I am doing an 8" 1858, and using one of my modified ejector rods. EMF had a great sale on Pietta 1858s for $234!!!! I just could not resist. They are the source on my Pietta 1860 with faux-ivory grips that is going to be my 1860 Saber River. I tried to love the 5" Schofield I got back, but it was just not right for an 1860 Henry toter with an 1860 conversion. Therefore I grabbed the sale 1858.
