Gun Porn- Pietta SAA Clone

Realized a few days ago that I do not have a single action revolver in my collection.


I know, right?  What red blooded 'Merican does not have a thumbbuster in the stable?   The Ghost of John Wayne would have to be looking down on me and shaking his head in disgust.

So I set out to rectify that situation.  Of course my first thoughts were to go after the goofy gun affliction again and get a Schofield or a Remington clone... then I saw what those were priced at these days, and decided to go with an SAA clone.

Shopped around some, and found that Cabelas down the street carries a great budget Eye-Talian SAA clone.  Online reviews were great, so, afetr shopping some local shops and getting that quizzical dog look from the counter guys when I asked for single actions...

Wait.. you mean an AR-15, right?
I went down to Cabelas, stood in line for way too long to buy something that I could see on the shelf right frigging there, and bought myself a .357 Magnum Pietta 1873 clone of the Colt Single Action Army.

So, 'nuff with these words n' stuff.  Y'all came here to see pichers of a hogleg, right?


Luckily I had the belt and gunbucket holster on hand already
