[Jappo]

If there are any collectors or interests in the Santa Barbara. There is a site dedicated to it. The site name is Projekt 1858 and/or Project 1858
Or I can post a link if allowed.

I have a question, has anyone tried to fit a Pietta or Uberti cylinder in them so maybe it will accept an unmentionable?

Yes, a Pietta cylinder fits good. An Uberti is too short. I've had three of them. I just sold two of them on here. I think one had a Pietta cylinder by the looks of the proof marks on the cylinder.

Isn't that a site devoted to converting the 1858 Remington to fire cartridges? If so we are not allowed to discuss them here.

No its not. They are trying to gather any and all information on the Santa Barbara. Same person has one on the Centaure also. I think he collects them. I think the site originates from Germany. Guys name is Michael Gloystein.
