Checked with the mods and it's Ok. I'm getting rid of some BP guns and I figured I'd list them here first in case any of you guys are interested. I think I'm pricing them fairly but feel free to PM me if you feel otherwise.
First one, Cabela's 1851 steel framed BP Revolver. 36 cal. Great candidate for a CF cylinder conversion. I've never fired it and it appears unfired. brass could use cleaning but blue and case hardening are in great shape. $275 shipped to you with original box but no papers.

There is that. I’m kinda partial to it’s big cousin the 1860 especially in a 1872 center fire conversion.

I have a thing for movie guns. The 1872 Colt conversion was featured in Tom Selleck’s holsters in Last Stand at Sable River and Crossfire Trail (with the 1876 Centennial Musket I already own), also in Horizon on Kevin Costner’s belt.Jayhawker wrote: ↑Sun Aug 02, 2026 1:50 amYep..Those conversions were pretty neat...Wambli Ska wrote: ↑Thu Jul 30, 2026 9:29 pm There is that.

I love those guys and Clint Eastwood for their use of the less conventional cowboy movie guns in their films.
