Hello to all. I now live in southern California, however, I am from southern Montana.
My handle is Stillwater because I was born in The Stillwater county, of Montana, beside the Stillwater river.
Currently I have a few percussion revolvers. I have two second generation Colt revolvers and four Cimmaron/Uberti revolvers. Two of the Cimmaron/Uberti 1860 Colt Armys are cut for a stock, and I have stocks made by Uberti for them.
My two second generation revolvers are unfired, and strapped with a bundle tie, so the cyllinder can't be rotated. I am on the hunt for more.
I would like a second generation 1860 Army if I could find a really good one.
I would buy a used (fired) second generation revolver in good condition, and use it as a shooter though. Most of what I am seeing though are used and abused.
I have an interesting Uberti reproduction carbine. A reproduction of a firearm that Remington put out in the mid 1860's. It is built on the misnamed 1858 frame with a rifle stock permanently affixed to the rear of the frame. It is a really neat carbine. I really like it.
I have a project in mind that I will try to complete, as soon as I have every revolver I want. What a great excuse to buy more reproduction percussion revolvers.
Bill
