Brass frame revolvers are a waste of money if you shoot a lot. The brass stretches! It will stretch so the cylinder gap gets so wide the hammer will not hit the caps half the time. Accuracy is pitiful. Buy a steel framed revolver that will last. I've been fooling with black powder pistols since 1973 when these brass ones sold for $69 new. This is not a real copy of any gun. A poor copy of a Griswold & Gunnison .36 which was made in 1862-64 in Griswold, Ga. It's not a magnum by any means either
Sweet gun. I think that's an 1851 navy Colt, not an 1860. It's also chambered in .44 I believe, and not .44 magnum. Great video though. "Awwww, shit!" ha.
We got my dad a pair of them. they are 44. Ive seen people on videos dry-fire them. Its actually not good on the gun. Its bad on the niples where the caps go. Good Video!
Considered a non-gun in most states but not all. I know for a fact that NJ considers black powder handguns just as any other handguns. NJ even considers bb pistols are real handguns; including criminal and mental background checks...the whole 9 yards.
@sum12see IMFDB is a great resource for stuff like that if you've never had the chance to check it out- according to it, Mr. Wales carried two Walkers, an 1860 Army, and an 1849 Pocket .31. Great video, man!

@MisterThirtyTwo the 1851 Navy was only .36...

@jimigzable Yeah, the original was. Modern replicas are chambered in larger bores. As if we could out-badass the guys who carried the original .36's.
