 :) ALL ;)

Most, if not all of Jay's conversions were built using Uberti guns as the donor.  I would presume Jay also fix'd the abhorrent Barrel to Arbor fit in the conversion process??  Abilene, you look at that??

MARSHALL WINGAM - Ah, Smooth Bore??  Really, Smooth Bore??  Ah not really.  Uberti Cap Guns are manufactured with a nominal .375 bore.  As an aside, or in addition:  With all of the .36 Cap Guns I have, have owned, have built, or shot (all of 'em), I used 148Gr Hollow Base Wadcutters.  My results, accuracy wise, mirror Abilene's results.  I got what I considered really great accuracy.  Never even tempted to have the barrels re-lined.  Just shooting HBWC is just too easy.

Howdy BRS.  Both those pics were taken at an angle slightly closer to muzzle than grip which can make barrels look longer, but it is the standard 7.5"

It is Uberti because Jay told me so  :)  but also the last 4 of the original s/n is stamped on the side of the grip frame inside, plus the matching full s/n starting with 'A' is still written inside the wood grip that came with it, which is how Uberti does it.  And besides all that, if it were Pietta then my Model P grip would not have fit.  ;)   He estimated it was 20 yrs old when he sold it to me.

Thank you John, I know you met her a couple of times.  Seems we took this sickness stuff to serious.

Abilene,

I see that you stated the revolver was 'defarbed', but do you know if it is a Uberti or Pieta?

Can't tell if the barrel is 7 1/2" or 8".

That's a fine looking pistol. Glad to hear it shoots well with the smooth bore bbl.

Those photos are nice to have. Great family history. I have one of each of my grandparents taken in 1888 when they were married. Thanks for sharing.

I like the pistol rack with the hockey puck.

My sentiments exactly.

One of the hazards of aging is the tendency to stop socializing.

 :) Ha!! ;)

I think being able to laugh with friends and acquaintances is a very important element of having a really good day.  All too often we take ourselves way too serious.

Now, I have to go back get transitions of Perfesser Marvel's drops.  I actually didn't know I could do that.  After all, I do be a Luddite.  Now, where'd I leave my stubby pencil ?????
