You would think that after a career as a police officer, even a SWAT team member, I would be pretty familiar with most weapons, but I just bought a Pietta 44 cal. 1851 Navy and it's all new to me. (I am having a ton of fun learning about it though!) The first thing we always did whenever we were issued a new weapon was learn how to field strip, and then completely disassemble the weapon, so as soon as I find my gun tools I'm going to take this sucker apart, and put it back together. Unless (seriously) anyone thinks it would be a bad idea for some reason. I already can't wait to get out on the range for the first time!
