I hope this isn't too weird for a Hi Power Collector's forum, but I've always wanted one of these things. So, last week on my birthday, I ordered one. Cabelas had them on sale for $269! This one is finished in Pietta's "Old Silver", which looks a lot like Nickel.  |

Boy Howard, I've always wanted one of those Remington 1858 replicas. I think it's the most handsome single action revolver design ever produced. Have fun with it.

Thanks Guys! I'm looking forward to getting out to the range with it. Watch for a video in the near future.

Very nice. I have the blued model.
The 1858 is the "Ruger Blackhawk" of the 19th century. Built like a tank, and weighs as much as well.
The Colt 1862 Pocket Police is the "S&W 642" of the 19th century. Lightweight and svelte.
I like both of them (as well as others) for their distinctive features and handling characteristics.

Hello Howard,
Well now you want me wanting to see if you can hit a "push pin" in the video! That would be awesome!

Hello Howard, Well now you want me wanting to see if you can hit a "push pin" in the video! That would be awesome! Chris Ha! The gauntlet has been thrown! This, Sir, is now a matter of honor. A push pin it shall be, with a revolver from twenty paces (but you'll have to wait for the video to see if I can pull it off!) Howard |

Hello Howard, Well sir. After seeing your delightful and entertaining videos, I will bet that you can do it!
