Remember, Sam Colt himself just considered the Dragoons to be product-improved Walkers...

2021-06-15 04:40:50 +0000 UTCAs I was watching this, I was thinking you guys need to talk to Mark from eras gone and then at the very end I heard you had. So very happy to hear! He has helped me out tremendously with in the last year to where im now making my own combustible paper cartridges and my own cartridge packets. He had recommended treso firing cones for my bp pistols and they work great! Also ive noticed the remington caps do better than the cci ones. I made and sent Mark a small woden mallet that i use for the cross key on my pistols. If you guys want I can make and send you guys one too. Love the black powder series. Keep it up !

2021-06-11 02:40:32 +0000 UTCI'd get a Walker repro, but I already have a first model Dragoon repro. So I'm going to go with an 1860 Navy repro instead for more variety.

2021-06-11 00:13:12 +0000 UTCYou sold me on the absurd massive handgun, now if only they weren't sold out wherever I try to look for them.

2021-06-10 01:40:52 +0000 UTCJust wondering if you are going to stay muzzle loading through out series or show the conversion cylinders that were available later on

2021-06-10 01:39:42 +0000 UTCCan't look at one of these without thinking of Gus McCrae in Lonesome Dove. 'By God, Woodrow, it's been one hell of a party.'

2021-06-10 01:05:54 +0000 UTCGlad to see you covering Colt black powder revolvers! I have been shooting reproductions for 50 years and still get a thrill when I unload them.

2021-06-10 00:01:12 +0000 UTCGlad RIA's on board. Uberti should be all over this! Great episode! I'm trying to picture the Walker paired with a S&W No. 1...

2021-06-09 17:26:09 +0000 UTCBtw the flavor of RIA Auction that I like the most starts tommorow and goes through the 12th. It's a sporting and collector which often has lots of a up to a half dozen milsurps. Or single lots of the more expensive stuff like a in this auction a lever nugget whose wood is is poor enough condition I might be able to win it.

2021-06-09 13:26:07 +0000 UTCGreat episode! I’ve been reading quite a bit about the period. This pistol (in trained hands) against large targets and masses of infantry would have been “ideal”. As a “pistol” in a modern sense no - to me it would be more like a 1840’s SMG or auto carbine…. but in a combat against masses of infantry or calvary. Remember in mounted combat killing horses was seen as a significant if not the primary tactic.

2021-06-09 08:24:43 +0000 UTCAgreed, a very interesting episode, but then they all are - loved the Bergman too. Othias does a great job on the personalities involved with the guns, and Mae and his 'scholarly' debates are fun.
