New Pietta entry-level SAA
« on: February 25, 2007, 07:35:53 PM »
I haven't seen any reference to this new gun so thought I'd mention it.  Handled one briefly recently.  It looks just like the Uberti Millenium SAA (matte black finish, brass gripframe)n and comes in 45LC and .357.  The action felt very good out of the box.  Much lighter springs than the stock Ubertis.   Also, the front sight is thick and squared off, with squared off rear sight (although it isn't very wide, could stand to be opened up).  Plus I'm told that it costs less than the Uberti.  Cimarron is carrying this and calling it the "Pistolero" (their version of the Uberti Millenium is called the "Badlands").  I don't know if other importers are carrying it or not.  Looks like it might be another good option for the beginner on a budget, or for someone looking for an inexpensive gun to slick up.

Just a follow-up on this...Texas Jack's has'em for $289.00 on internet special.  I just picked up a set of 4 3/4 .45's and am quite satisfied with the purchase.

I'll post stats and pics once I get some range time.

Are these similar to the Cabellas Milenium revolver?  Those were troublesome guns to say the least.
Of all the things I've lost over the years, it's my mind that I miss the most!
