1851 Colt Navy - 5 STAR Looks & Accuracy
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2021
- First look at my Cimarron 1851 Colt Navy replica by Uberti. Did a quick out of the box look-over and check out along with shooting. Very impressed with the appearance and shooting of this gun.
I'm so glad I found your channel. Great shooting videos! 🙂👍
Thanks Anthony. Hope I can continue to find things of interest, especially for black powder revolver shooters. O.R.
Consider the times these guns were used and the objective to throw more lead down range at longer distances. A battlefield is very different than plinking in our backyards at 20-30 yards.. My theory is they intended these to be zeroed around 100 yards. If these were dead on at 25 yards and you had enemy soldiers coming at you at 100+ yards, the front sight would block your target. I think I read somewhere or heard that soldiers were told to aim at enemy's belt buckle if they were at closer distances. But I must admit I was really surprised to see these things can shoot 20" high at just 25 yards...
Beautiful gun. Getting a new BP gun in the mail is like Christmas morning. I recently got me a Cimarron gun and so far have really happy with it. Great video Old Ranger and good shooting.
I have a 2017 vintage Cimarron 51' navy and just aquired another one exactly like yours. I liked this gun so much I just had to have a pair! They both shoot one ragged hole at 15 yards if I swab the bore once or twice before loading, otherwise the group opens slightly like yours did. By filing slightly on the top of the hammer and playing with the v notch I got both to shoot to point of aim at the above distance. After hundreds of rounds thru both they only got better. I honestly don't understand how Uberti can make such a beautiful revolver at such a reasonable price!
I don't either, but I sure don't want to be caught wishing I had bought more. I am working on something with 44 and 36 cals that if if works Lenny, could win the hearts of millions of registered voters. Keep your eyes open Captain. O.R.
I thought both groups looked more than acceptable. Beautiful gun
I've had my Cimeron '51 for 11 years now, and love it. I also did a Kirst conversion on it as well, so I can also fire cartridges. I also have a Cimeron '60 Army that I did the conversion as well. Both revolvers are great fun to shoot with either cylinder in them! Note: I did leave the loading levers on both revolvers (no ejector rod for the cartridge cylinders), but not a big deal pushing out the empties with a separate rod.
I've heard that one needs a healed bullet, or one where the base expands to catch the rifling for accuracy. Any ideas or experience with that? O.R.
@@oldranger3044, Yes you're correct. I load 148gr. HBWC into .38 special cases. The cylinder is actually chambered for .38LC. Accuracy is quite good with the wadcutters as well.
The cylinder for the '60 is chambered for .45LC. I have to seat the bullets slightly deeper, as the cylinder is slightly shorter than a standard .45LC cylinder. Those loads use the standard 250gr. LRN.
@@mikek8089 Mike, thanks for the reply. O.R.
Nice.👍
Ran pretty well, considering a lot of replicas out of the box suck caps. Love the 51 Navy
waiting for a new video terrill.
After reading that 1851 Navy revolvers were usually carried in pairs, I ordered 2 Uberti 1851 Navys from MidwayUSA. They arrived a day before they were scheduled to arrive. They came in the original Uberti boxes instead of some retailer's boxes and did not include the extra literature from the retailer. I chose MidwayUSA not only because of price, but also because I was able to be sure they would come with color case hardened frames, brass grip frames and walnut grips. I have always found MidwayUSA to be one of the best suppliers. Only when they do not have what I want will I spend a little more and go to Brownell's.
Now I need to build a two gun wood box with a lid for this pair, and then a similar box for my two Ruger Wranglers. The size of the collection is increasing.
You get an official "at a boy" from me. I understand the box building plan, as I have been doing that for over 20 years. I found a source of pretty much original style brass hinges when I was in the Philippines over 20 years ago. I try to build them as close to the originals as I can, and they sure complement the nice guns the Italians are making. Good luck with the project, and thanks for the comment. O.R.
@@oldranger3044 - Thanks. A simple tip that I hope you will find helpful comes from my also being into pen turning. There are various fancy highly figured woods available that would be perfect for making boxes, fancy grips, or whatever.
While I haven't tried this yet, I have heard that the Magnum Research BFR uses the same grips as the Ruger Super Blackhawk. Therefore, I have the patterns I need to make fancy figured grips for my BFRs. One other small tip on this, do not checker the grips on hard recoiling guns. Let the gun just roll back in your hand instead of biting you.
Thanks, sounds like good info. Have used curly maple for some boxes, and that is not traditional, but sure looked nice. O.R.
That looks very nice, so much better without all the stampings up the side of the barrel like Pietta do, and nice to have a barrel wedge that does not fall out when you strike it out, and you got 2 chambers full without a jam! Is the mainspring stronger that the other pistols, the originals are 12 Lb pull, so that helps a lot. Nice groups! Stay safe! Chris B.
I love those revolvers, we aren't allowed guns in Ireland, but bought my dad who's 82 a replica 1851 Navy revolver made by Denix Spain, it's pretty realistic quality with that double click I love, he's a big fan of Eastwood westerns.
Nice to hear from Ireland. Not nice to hear about restrictions, however. Lots of folks, myself included, have a great passion for these. The intent is not to harm anyone, or probably anything in most cases. I am lucky where I live as I can enjoy ownership and connection with the past. Many thanks to Eastwood and the folks in Italy that made a lot of this possible. Best of luck to you and family. O.R.
You’re not even allowed black powder guns in Ireland?
Great shooting, I would be very happy with either of those groups, lovely weapon, thanks for sharing.
Thanks, the shooting community today is fortunate to have available so many fine replicas of historic firearms. I try to support the manufacturers by collecting what I can afford, and passing on information and enjoyment. I would like to see US manufacturers of components like caps and powder do more to support this sport and American traditions. Not having (as far as I know at this time) a black powder manufacturing facility seems a shame for a country that historically relied heavily on its use and continues to have folks that use it. O.R.
Nice groups, geez! I have a couple ‘51’s I need to get them to the range.
I found a pair of conservative serial number's - 79811 & 79812 Cimarron 1851 navy's and they are to commemorate Pony Express 150 years - 1860 - 2010 NEPA stamped on the barrels flats. Grips have large XP stamps on both sides. Very RARE to find consecutive serial numbered Navy's especially in a pawn shop that have never been fired and my price on them was $650 out the door. No sales tax or shipping fee and no Internet tax as is the case when you buy from Gunbroker or any of the other site's.
I’m lucky you found them instead of me. My financial picture is dim at the moment, and I’m afraid that would have caused the light to go out. Congrats. O.R.
Have one myself and also the 1860 Army enjoy both of them. Uberti my first pick of revolvers cartridge and black powder
@@johnolson7319 👍
I do old west reenactment shows, and that's what I use as well as their long arms.I think my cartridge revolvers had shot more blanks than live ammo and the same for the B. P. Revolvers LoL 😅@oldranger3044
Good one. Shooting that well out of the box I would be happy.
Thank you. That took me back a few years and the memories of smoke and sparks. One suggestion though. I found that to get nice clean holes on target. I use a gluestick and glue tgt onto cardboard and it does make great difference.
Yes, thanks. Some days I will shoot 10-15 targets because I only want 6 shots per target, so I think I’d be too lazy to cut that much cardboard. Wait a minute Pard, probably my wife could make them up after dishes 😅. Better have the grocery store start saving boxes. O.R.
Hard to find these Cimarron .36 cal Navy's around. I really like the writing on the barrel, makes it look more authentic.
Right on both counts. O.R.
The 1851 Navy seems to get quite glowing reviews from multiple UA-camrs. I have tried to keep everything in 44 caliber, but maybe I should consider a .36 caliber pistol. They seem to be inherently accurate.
Just a heads up from my experience. I feel the 36’s are more fussy than the 44’s. I’m not discouraging their purchase, just saying my opinions. That said, I own more than I probably should, and they use less lead and powder, but smell and clean the same. Just don’t want you to get into one thinking it will out shoot your 44’s. But then, who knows. O.R.
That’s some sweet shooting. Your videos are so precise. Mine are a bit less precise. Still, it’s fun sharing with others.
Thanks. Takes all types, not all viewers enjoy the same style. Right on, sharing info and positive things are what it's about. Yours are good. O.R.
@@oldranger3044 thanks a whole bunch my friend
Althou my favorite black powder gun is Pietta Colt Cattleman, this gun is also quite good :)
I have never been around black powder firearms. I think they seem to be fun to shoot and plan on getting a couple. I like how well this Cimarron shot. I think I will pick one up. Thanks for the review.
Might keep in mind the movie Quigley Down Under. Things might not always go well at first. Better to have low expectations then high disappointment. I'm only saying that from some experience. There's a definite challenge in black powder shooting, and satisfaction as many have commented. Wishing you best of luck on a new adventure. O.R.
@@oldranger3044 Thanks again. I know I got a lot to learn, like everything. Lol I just walked out of Cabelas up here in South Dakota and they didn't have one black powder firearm in the place. I guess I will have to order one online.
@@ceasar3696 That won't be easy right now, especially if a person has a certain one in mind. If you check EMF website, at this time they do have 3 or 4 that are in stock, a couple are the brass engraved 36 and 44's in the 51 style, and also a steel 51 in 44. Prices will probably only go up with time. Also, Midway USA has some, and of course there is gun broker, and probably others like Dixie gun works. I don't see much at Cimarron or Taylor. Hope this helps. O.R.
@@oldranger3044 Thanks I will check them out. I was just looking right now. It seems like supplies are low all over. I have found a couple at different places and models still trying to decide which one I want to go with. I appreciate your help and videos.
@@oldranger3044 I ordered the 1851 steel .44 from EMF that will work for now. I found others but EMFs prices are the best I have found. Thanks again.
Beautiful gun,great video,only in the states can you get a gun in the post,love it.
Hi Martin. Right, and if you're my age, and from the states, then you probably know that pre 67- I think, we could get not only black powder, but most anything. Actually, it went later than that because I ordered my S&W K38 and got it in the mail in 69 or 70 when I started working and had some $. We had way less violence at that time then now too, so go figure. O.R.
I ordered mine months ago, it arrived yesterday, very impressed by the finish, all cylinder bores exactly the same size, only the side of the hand has been ground in factory fitting, but that was soon polished, I notice that the date and serial number has been laser engraved on mine, very shallow so easily polished out, but they used to be stamped in with a number punch, and the date was usually in the form of a letter code, now it has 2021 etched in, been raining for 2 days, so have not yet shot it, i hope it is as good as your one! Chris B
Congrats. I sure hope so too I because I have a second one that I "just had to order" in case shooting the first one wasn't just a fluke. Right now I'm debating a Cimarron 1861, just need to nut up and push the buy it now button while their still available. O.R.
@@oldranger3044 I like the creeping rammer of the 1861, it feels a lot better that the articulated 1851 type, I have just measured my 1851 chambers and find they are .373", and the barrel groove is .375", so I may have some problem there, it is easy to open the chamber mouth with an adjustable reamer though. Stay safe! Chris B
@@453421abcdefg12345 Hi. I'm getting .370-371 on my 1851 chambers. On the 61 they are a couple thou larger. The 61 has bore of .360-.361. Not sure about grove. I'm amazed how well they shoot when the ball or whatever isn't going out to the groves. Possibly it bumps up but I have no way of knowing that. Wonder what's up with the different chamber diameters. Suppose the machinery could take on some ware and cause smaller ones. Probably only the Italians know for sure. Good shooting. O.R.
@@oldranger3044 OR, I am sure the reason for very slight differences in chamber diameters is due to reamer feed rates, if the chambers are reamed in a fixture a different rate of plunging in would give a slightly different cut, or a reamer that is getting blunt, it is quite easy to use an adjustable reamer and "tickle" them all to the same size, I always work on a .001" bigger bullet than groove diameter, these are a bit difficult to measure as they have ,(correctly) odd number of grooves, so no 2 groove come opposite, but you can ,with digital calipers, rotate the slug to give a fair idea of groove dia, or use three leg micrometers, which not everyone has! I am sure the ball bumps up a bit, I do find that when I am driving a lead ball through to check size, I look forward to seeing your 1861! Chris B.
@@oldranger3044 Uberti give the groove diameter as .379" which makes it way above chamber diameter, I have just used a 3/8" hand reamer to open up the chambers to .375", it gave an excellent finish, and is now ready to try, although at .004" under groove size I cant see it will be very good, although you got outstanding results from your one, I am now making a bullet mould to cast a conical with spigot as I cannot buy one! Chris B.
Nice shooter mate great stuff mate 👍
Built for battle in the ol days. A center mass POI at 20 yards, shooting a bit high can be beneficial, especially hip firing on a quick draw.
Great point about the sear engagement and rear sight height. I agree with you. It would be beneficial if Uberti and Pietta calibrated the hammer positioning for a 25 yard zero with an optimal load.
For now, I deepen the rear sight notch and lower the front sight into the deeper notch to lower bullet impact.
I used to grind off the top of the rear sight to create more of a patridge target picture, and usually replaced the front tapered bead with a more square one. That was when I was attempting of compete on paper. I like your approach because there is less evidence of it being modified. As long as we're wishing, maybe someone, or a company, would make a trigger with a longer tang that could be adjusted by the shooter to the proper length. Might then need to shorten the hand some. I made such a trigger, took most of a day, but it did work. It lowered the impact by probably 6-8 inches at 20 yards. Got to wonder if in the day the colt factory was more particular about this thing, which would cause them not to shoot so high. Appreciate you picking up and commenting on this detail. O.R.
I do like it to shoot a bit high as my targets are out there a bit. I find coons and bush dogs around the chicken house are a little skittish 😊
I was hoping you’d keep the videos going. This is my favorite BP channel.
Do you know the thread pitch for the uberti arbor? I ordered a Pietta, but it doesn’t fit my old unknown frame because Pietta uses a course and my frame is fine.
Haven't had the misfortune of having one out yet. Armi San Paolo uses a 3/8-24 (fine), possibly Uberti is that and maybe ASM. Pietta I think uses metric. O.R.
My old 2nd gen Colt had a 5/16-18 thread for the arbor. I believe they still use that thread on newer Uberti's.
Wow Great shooting gun !! I need to get one , I’ve been looking for awhile but this might make me pull the trigger!!
Thanks Michael. I've heard there getting hard to come by. Can't say they will all shoot as good as this one appears to, but, they are real nice. O.R.
You have a steady hands and good eyes. I have a 58 Remington that's fine, but I can't see the front sight as it's too thin.
I have had to get shooting glasses. Bifocals just don't work, can see the target fine, but the whole gun is a blur.
@@oldranger3044 I guess I need to go to my eye doctor too. About how much were the glasses?

Another fine Video, Thanks
Good morning,
I managed to shoot with homemade black powder
I make charcoal with toilet paper
I put 6% smokeless powder (for lead bullets) mixed and it works really well, almost no smoke or clogging
I make my round bullets with Lee mold in .454
it pulls very supple and without recoil, the holes are nice and clean
it was with this video that I decided to buy mine exactly the same
I recycle a lot, everything has become so expensive
Long health to you
Thanks, and it’s looking like the prices for many of us, one way or the other, will not be affordable. Best of luck, and interesting about your black powder product. O.R.
@@oldranger3044 Each black powder shooter has its own “little” personal recipe.
The cheapest possible is even better!
I’m curious about your powder charge. Are you going by weight or volume. I’ve noticed if I break the scale out my pattern is much more tight.
If I use a volume dipper etc. my pattern increases.
A considerable difference in seating of the round ball .
I’ve been shooting 1851s since K-Mart had them for 39.99. And never gave the hammer sear notch any thought. Until now.
Thank You
Here’s my experience. I have been using Lee powder measures. I have made some measures from rifle-pistol cases but now use the dippers from the Lee set. I have no problems with weighed charges, just that at present I haven’t found them to reduce group size by enough to justify the time and effort. Again, this is the direction I’m leaning now, but this seems like a topic that begs for a video and more testing. K-Mart ain’t around anymore, won’t be long and they will say the same about us. Take care. Thanks again for your comment. O.R.
That's really good..out of the box .very impressive. Have you tried any of the pocket models probably my favorite is the 1862 pocket police and thanks for the video
Have shot a pocket police by Uberti. Only once as it belonged to my cousin. Shot very high as I remember, but good group. Think it had the fast twist barrel. O.R.
...Finally I found someone that uses 15g... That's what I use on mine... with out wad or semoline... seems to be a good load. Are you checking the wedge between loads? Cheers!
Yes, most times I remove cylinder and load on bench, so the wedge gets reseated each time. Suppose that could cause slight variations in where it shoots, but probably insignificant in regards to what else is going on. O.R.
I bought the same gun last year and love it. Your bumper says I’m your huckleberry, do you know what that means? Watch tombstone movie. Thanks , john
Nice video .... I've sighted my black powder 1851 pistols with a needle file made for filing guitar saddles to lower the hammer sight notch. Fun pistols! I like your new one you got.
Thanks John. That seems more precise than a Dremel, which could take off some in the wrong place accidentally. O.R.
I love my Ubertis but I wish they came in better boxes
This revolver made for 30 y , that's why u see from 10 to 20 m range the bulit at target are higher. that means u have to know your distance at your target and where you have to hold in this distance, that mean, you hold your sight a little bit under the black point at the target & you will hit the black point , as shooter u have to know your pistol and the weight of your bulits , heavy bulit shoot higher than the light one that's my expierience after 40 yesrs of shooting
Very nice groups shoots better than a lot of plastic guns out there That's for Darn sure
Good thing lots of shooters favor plastic, if they didn’t, the demand for these would send the price higher than I could afford. Five years ago I decided to try out some 9’s. Six or seven, or more, from four manufacturers. They all went bye-bye. I would have been happy to keep a couple if they could have grouped because I invested in a couple of progressive loaders, casting, sizing, etc. Not saying that there aren’t some good ones, just not what I cared for. O..R.
My great great grandpa used to have one of those until he died and then somehow the revolver got lost to History God knows where that thing is now
That is about the same accuracy I get from my Wilson Combat 1911. I bet your 1951 was more reasonably priced?
Just a little. Even having to order a second one didn't break the bank and still kept things well under four digits. O.R.
Perfect
There are enough original 1851 Navy's around to verify they did indeed shoot high.
In my area we rarely see one or hear of one being shot. I did watch a video by Mike B. Where he fired an original and expected to shoot high but it seemed not to. On the other side, the gun at the Cody Museum that is claimed to have belonged to Wild Bill, appears to have a non standard front sight that appears to be higher than originals which would cause it to shoot lower. With conicals of course they will shoot even higher, which I believe the military used. Possibly even Bill as he was involved with them. Not being there, we rely on other evidence, sometimes it is only a guess or speculation. O.R.
@@oldranger3044 Shooters did made after market modifications, but the military issue always shot high. There was a saying during the Civil War. "To hit the heart, aim for the stomach."
@@Man_Cave 👍 That probably worked. O.R.
Are you sure it's a fast twist? I checked the Uberti website and they list the .36 with a slow twist for round balls and a fast twist for their .44's
So, I just looked down the barrel again and it didn't appear earlier one quite as fast as one I have that is a bit older. This new one looked like it turned a little more than 1/3 and I expected almost 1/2 like my older one. Measured it and I come up with about 1-20, so is it possible they changed again from the 1-16 to the 1-20. Actually that according to one fellow I read in a forum, 1-20 would be pretty ideal. So it is a faster twist than the 1-30 that was used. Hope this is not too confusing. O.R.

Thats the last thing a freedom seed sees before embarking on its journey to make the world a better place.
So I am wondering, at what point does this guy take the factory hang tag off o the trigger guard?🤔🤔🤔
I just bought my first black powder revolver! It’s a Pietta Short barrel Navy revolver. I can’t find percussion Caps anywhere locally. Is there a website you recommend for Remington # 10 caps or similar?
I wish there was. Good news is that as far as I know they are still making them but it isn’t a high priority for the company. I have seen some #11’s in some local shops, and they can work in “with” a pinch. There is the danger that a loose cap could increase chances for a chain fire so be aware of that. Sorry I can’t be of much help here. O.R.
@@oldranger3044 thanks for the response! I'll keep looking. Do you have any experience with those kits that allow you to make percussion caps from aluminum cans? Are they any good?
@@Doriamo yes, and if you check my channel I believe I have a video or two on them, except I have the tap-o-cap which was made by forester and is discontinued. For revolvers I think the #10 is the size, but should check with mfg to see what they recommend. Since I had a tool for producing the caps, I only ordered the prime all powders. Plenty of bang for your bucks, and enough to make lots of caps. Follow instructions. I have tried copper, but have had better luck with the Al cans using my forester. I have fun making stuff, and $50 won’t buy many caps for revolver shooting, if you can find any. A word of caution because I had a chain fire that might have been due to sloppy powder placement inside the cap that acted like a fuse and the flame from the adjacent chamber set it off. That hasn’t stopped me, but was more finicky on the 20 I made last night. O.R.
I'm no gun expert at all but it looks like Jose Wales guns so I like it
Hi. Its close however. He had a pair of colt Walkers which are lots larger. He also used an colt 1860 army just after Redlegs killed his family in the beginning. The Cimarron 1851 resembles it, but is better known for being used by Tuco in The Good, Bad, and Ugly. O.R.
Are Cimarrons better quality than the typical ubertis?
I believe Uberti makes Cimarron. Cimarron may request some special things done such as lettering, or special model. I own and have fired both and can’t tell any real difference. I do like where Cimarron places it’s name, sort of like Colt did with the originals. O.R.
Just file the rear notch down. It’s not worth messing up the sears trying to extend the pull.
Your lucky Everytime I'm waiting on a package it's always 2or3 days late. And half of everything is missing.
Who are you ordering from?
@@TexasDog3 traditions
That one came from gun broker; M&M Outfitters. Address is on the box.
@@oldranger3044 Thanks
@@todhurley3756 Thank you.
I'll take a pair.
That's what I figured; two. O.R.
Is the 51 better than the 61?
Probably the same as far as accuracy. 61 had some improvements such as loading lever, round barrel, and elongated front sight. Some say the 51 has a better feel, but I haven’t noticed much. More 51’s were made (I believe), and seem more desirable maybe due to the octagonal barrel and their use in a couple of well liked westerns. I don’t think a person can go wrong with either. My first was a Replica Arms (early Uberti I believe), 1861. Saw in their catalog “Fastest of the fast “, and had to have it. O.R.
Do you have an opinion on brass frame or steel frame. Preference I mean
Don't have much experience with brass frames. I plan to get more, as I just received a few from EMF. My guess would be that they can shoot as accurate as the steel, but may loosen up sooner, especially with strong loads in round or conicals. They are not recommended if one is planning on a cylinder to shoot cartridges. With proper care, I can see them lasting longer than most shooters will. Most shooters; there are always exceptions of course. Especially now unless someone has laid up 10-20 K of caps and enough powder. For equal money, I would choose the steel, but with brass at lower cost, it sort of evens the playing field. Don't be afraid of the brass thinking it is a "cheap" option. They have the same cylinder and barrel as the steel. I suppose I lean more toward the steel, probably because that is how most, if not all of the original colts and rem's were. O.R.
Nice I can't get six shots out of my colt replica without a cap jam
Question: Is that a 2nd gen colt, as mfg by Colt. If so, I have had the same situation. Finally went with some SliXshot ones that helped. Probably not necessary except for something like Cowboy Action matches. O.R.
@@oldranger3044 km
Per Ordnance they were to hit point of aim at 71 yards.
@@CalNoble Was that true for the Remingtons also? O.R.
@@oldranger3044 Glad you asked; The Remington New Model Army Revolver was 75 yards (1863). One note, all (Colt and Remington) would have had to be with conical bullets, this is my opinion but I have never read anything to indicate otherwise as the Army used paper cartridges,
@@CalNoble Thanks for the info 👍. O.R.
Gain twisted?
Hi Jason. The Uberti 1851 doesn’t have a gain twist. Originals I understand did. This Uberti does have a faster (1-18) twist than many of the other 51 replicas. I find so far they are exceptional shooters. Actually, I think Uberti is the only one that is doing this in the 36 caliber arena. O.R.
Can't tell if he is Finnish or Canadian :D
Did I miss the price? I'm interested
Think it came to around 360 with tax and shipping.
@@oldranger3044 I have several modern pistols ( not enough..lol) but I have been thinking about black powder alot recently..thank you
Good morning, it is better to buy a regular Colt Navy or Confederate Colt Navy
If you buy the Confederate model, then there’s only the brass option for frame, the colt navy has both options. Brass frame guns are less$, but possibly weaker than steel frames. The Confederate is for someone who wants a replica more like the gun built in the south and used by Southern troops in the Civil War. I have never heard that there is any shooting difference between the brass frame guns. Historically there were no brass frame Navy Colts made as far as I know. So, in shooting, little or no difference, only a matter of which one you like the looks of. Oh, sometimes the Confederates cost more or are harder to find. Hope this helps some. O.R.
@@oldranger3044 Thank.
Just a True statement here and some of you may know and it will shock a lot of gen z what Evers lol IS this compare the 36 to a 9mm in a Ballistic get you will be surprised. 😊
Second group still minute of squirrel
Haven't heard that one before. I like it. O.R.
I got one today it was a pain getting the barrel of spent about four hours getting the barrel to fit better an knocking the burrs off uberti y'all slipping
Maybe a Friday gun, suppose nowhere is sparred that. I’ve had a few Uberti’s that didn’t quite live up to the reputation. But considering what’s involved in production (no polymers), I’m happy their availability at an affordable price. O.R.
Typical damaged box by the USPS, I hate when my stuff is shipped to me by USPS. I've had them stick a long box in my mailbox so the doors left open and it was raining and the box plus all my other mail was soaked. BTW my mailbox is at the curb and out of my site from the house. USPS stands for united states postal sucks
I think at least half of my Uberti boxes are busted. Just imagine a walker in a Uberti box going through the shaking that “K” gave that dog in Men in Black - if you’ve seen that movie. That’s the condition of most of mine. I like style and look of the box, but its the distance they have to travel - ain’t the age,,,its the mileage. O.R.
