I went to a friend-of-a-friends house thinking I may buy what he had told me was a Navy Arms Uberti Griswold and Gunnison revolver. Well, I got there and he had TWO, in a case with accessories, but they were Piettas. Anyway I went ahead and bought them both as he was having some real difficult...

Hey guys, hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! I have an opportunity to buy a ( Navy Arms) Uberti G&G , date code 1980 for probably 175ish. Its in pretty good shape, never fired, but cruddy from sitting for 30 years. It should clean up very nice. However, Cabellas has the Pietta version...

My buddy has an 1860 Army by Pietta he will sell me for 150.00, that I would love to convert into a snuby. I would like to change the grip to a birdshead. Is this possible? Would I have to look for a Pietta version? I see VTI has the Uberti for 172.00 !!!!! Its part number 11, which I think...

these are such a nice departure from my beloved Colts. I dont have to worry too much about them getting skinned up and they look so cool to me. I just love this whole black powder part of my shooting regime. Still only have 3, but I have a line on a 1980 Uberti G&G I may buy. Anyway, I was...

Hey guys, I have 2 Uberti 1858's now (and one ASM 1851) and really like them. They are new manufacture and are of excellent quality (for Italian repo's). Am I wrong in wanting to stay with Uberti or would a new Pietta from Cabellas be just as good? I've bought both of my Uberti's...

Hey guys, I've searched several forums on this topic but didnt find an answer to my question. Im ordering a conversion cylinder for my Uberti 1858 Remmy and want to make my own 45 loads for it. I currently use my own home made black powder (40gr) , home made lubed wads, and balls that I cast...

Hello guys, Im interested in doing an experiment on my shotguns. I was wanting to reduce the LOP of the stock because they are so much easier to handle/manipulate in the house at night. I removed the recoil pad on my 1300 and 870 and its just what I want to try. I know the recoil will be brutal...

Well after have the most fun in a long time with my new black powder adventure, I had to buy another one. This time I bought the Uberti 432c, Remmy, 1858 in stainless and 5.5 in barrel. The revolver is very well put together. The stainless is very nice, the dovetail front sight is nice and...

My buddy was taking alot of video of us shooting our black powder revolvers and I was able to copy this frame from one of them. The revolver is a Uberti Remington 1858 with 5.5 inch barrel. I could'nt believe it when I was slowing down the video and saw that flame! Amazing. :D

Hello guys, could be so kind as to vote on this poll in my local newspaper. They are so screwed up in their wording its ridiculous, but we all know what they mean. Its 70% in our favor now, but I would like to crush them by days end. Thank you so much. Kevin. http://www.theledger.com/ Its...

Wow, Im really loving this thing. I shot another 75rds today and it all went perfect. Just as it should have. The lubed wads I made from the info on this site worked perfect as well. Anyway, just wanted to tell you guys how much fun I had. The smoke and boom were just great. Great site...

Hello, I received my first black powder revolver the other day. Its a new forged fame Uberti 1858 Remington with a 5.5 barrel. I collect Colt revolvers so I was very nervous about what to expect from Uberti quality. I was very impressed. I've had the gun apart and marveled at its simplicity...
