Should I return my 1858?

I'm not "Historically accurate" either friend!
If it makes you smile, you made the right choice.

Have you gotten it yet? if so or when you do, let us know if it feels different.

I got it today, the picture I posted is the actual gun I received :)
It does feel a little different, the cylinder pin seems to get back in place easier and the cylinder is a bit easier to get out and back in. However the hammer is off-center, I didn't pay close attention to this on the other one I sent back so I have nothing to compare it to. The hammer only seems to rub against the frame a tiny bit. I've also noticed that it has some play (left to right) when it's uncocked, but not when cocked.
Here's a couple pictures to show you the hammer :

I'm hoping that's a fairly common thing on these guns, because other than that it looks and feels absolutely great.

I'm not sure if I can post links on here, I can PM you the adress if you want. I live in europe so the shipping fees might be a bit high if you live in the US (I'm assuming you do?). But the Sheriff model in stainless does look quite nice in person :)
