    I have to rethink the spare cylinder idea

    I mean every one of mine has one because I aquired another one for them. Was easy to think of and do,I aint that smart. So I figure if I thought of it so did someone else. Their brains were actually smarter than ours.

    I have to rethink the spare cylinder idea

    That doesn't make any sense to me I reckon. For people that carried multiple horses,rifles,pistols and tools.

    I am with you on the movie thought. My point is if you and I do it for fun why wouldn't they when it was for life and death?

    I have to rethink the spare cylinder idea

    My 1858 replicas did not come with spare cylinders but every one has one now and a pouch to carry it. Been carrying a capped and loaded cylinder in said pouch for almost a year now and it hasn't gone off yet on my belt. 😳

    I have to rethink the spare cylinder idea

    That and new tech is always held in suspicion until it has proven itself. The first cartridge guns were not without their own issues.

    Those peoples scalps would be on display in a dance ceremony........ being ill prepared doesn't change the reality at hand for the better.

    I have to rethink the spare cylinder idea

    I have done it on horseback at a canter but I have been riding a long time.........oh so did they. 😆 If in Indian territory or a mining situation I would have been as well armed as pssible and still be able to function. Getting caught alive was not the way to go.

    Accuracy....

    I am loving mine as well in 36 and 44. The target models sights are the only difference between the models with 8" barrels. I do really like the modern sight profile but it aint necessary.

    Too much trouble.....

    After the second or third cylinder I was having issues with the paper clogging the nipples to the point picking would not clear it took disassembly to remove the plugs.

    Issues with .36 rifle cleaning jags

    I just got some .36 bore mops from tow that will not fit down a 36 caliber barrel. Grabbed a few different calibers all fit well except the .36 and .32 both were way too large but the .32 works great in the .36.

    Lee conicals for .44 revolvers

    I had problems with those backing partway out the cylinder under recoil and jamming the cylinder. The Kerrs from erasgone seat,shave a ring and stay in place. Still like balls better though.
