Do not know if I qualify for this forum. I have 2 army '60's percussion that I am in the process of converting. Have completed one, waiting on the 2nd one, conversion parts (backorder). I have not shot these as main match revolvers, have always used the '73's all Uberti's. The armies (Pietta's) I have had for a long time, I saw this forum and started seeing folks conversions and I thought, I can do that, plus it will give me more pistols to shoot... laugh. So if I do not qualify... I will come back after I convert my 2nd army. I have not seen anyone where I shoot, use percussions that have been converted. We have a couple of pokes who shoot them in black powder, but no conversions. In fact I have only seen one member who shoots sometimes with a '72 open top. So when mine are converted and I use them...maybe others will also.
