    I have one of each and yes, that's a great price for these. The Remmie is much more practical in its features, but I don't think there was EVER a pistol made, before or after, that handles as well as the 1860 Colt. If I didn't have 'em already, I'd right on top of this.

    Thumbs up

    Good deal! Picked up a Remington a couple of years ago (a steal at $100 shipped) and love it. Everyone should have at least one C&B revolver.

    The Remington is a much stronger pistol design. The frame incircles the cyclinder. Colts will shoot loose over time, the Remington will not.

    Well, Cabelas sells the flap holsters for them at a very reasonable price. Also check http://www.buffaloarms.com and http://www.dixiegunworks.com

    Just thought I'd add that you can get a conversion kit (Kirst) for the Pieta 1858 44 cal from Buffalo Arms ( http://www.buffaloarms.com ) for $274 - this is for the firing pin/loading gate ring and cylinder. Basically turns your 1858 into a 45 Colt cartridge conversion revolver.

    $169+$274 - not too bad a price for a non-registered cartridge firing revolver - not to mention how cool they are.

    You do have to use your dremel to remove a little metal to make a clearance for the loading gate area... but it's a piece of cake.

    Interesting, plus I don't know many people or animals either who would laugh off getting hit with a couple 45 Colt slugs.
