Hey everyone,

I am looking to purchase my first black powder firearm. I am a college student, and don't have much disposable income but I would like to use the little I got for Christmas on myself, and get a black powder gun. My only experience with them was about a year ago when I was able to volunteer at a historic site for a few months; I got to fire a flintlock Brown Bess 1st pattern, and loved it. It seems there is now way I can afford a rifle, but what do you guys think of the Pietta revolvers on Cabelas? They are currently on sale for $149, which is about all I have to spend.

Thanks!

Ide get this one, if i had the funds. Remington 1858

You will be suprised how accurate an 8" barrel is on one of these revolvers. I think this is one of the reasons why i cant stop shooting them they are so darn accurate its addicting. 15-25 yards is a blast. When i shoot mine at my local range i always get double takes to see what im shooting. Not just the big plume of smoke that each shot puts out but the accuracy.
