    Ultimate pistol

    It's also stated somewhere in Keith's book's or his writings, he killed an elephant with five shots from a 44mag. He also stated he feared for his life before the elephant dropped and did not want to repeat the experience again.

    Brass frame Question

    Back when I was a kid,14 or 15 I loaded a brass frame .36 revolver with all the powder it would hold. Shot it a lot as it's all I had then. Now 35years later I still shoot it every now and then with lighter loads. The cylinder gap is still smaller than a match book cover. It's about maxium now...

    Holy Crapoly!!

    I had one of the pins fall out of a uberti navy which was brand new, before I ever shot it. I just used a little jb weld and the pin has stayed in. I think dixie sells the pins by themselves, if you deceide to fix it your self.

    What is the maximum clyinder gap for a percussion revolver?

    It is a colt style brass frame from the late 60's or early 70's. Its called the Reb by navy arms. It was my first gun. It's had far to many rounds through it to count, and the gap is less than a match book cover. I bought it new, and was looking at it the other day and wondered what the gap was...
