sza/Ron, did your Mountain Guns have wood or rubber grips? The first stuff I put through my Redhawk was some very light Magtech Cowboy Action .44spl... I knew the recoil would be less than .44mag, but it was like the difference between .22lr & .40S&W.

Well, that, and the fact that the BFR is a single-action revolver.

What secures it to the belt? I was thinking about getting one for my Redhawk, but if it just dangles there, no way.

True, it just struck me as a bit halfassed. Though I suppose it makes it easier to accommodate different sizes of belts, and probably makes it easier to conceal. Hmm To do: - Gain 200lbs - CCW Redhawk

The LCR's trigger isn't especially bad, but I don't find it especially good, either. Also reposting 'cause this Ruger is the BestŠ Ruger.  The trigger is so nice, I pull it, bullets disappear, it's science, physics is involved, something crazy, it's like magic or something.

Huh - my response was a mix of genuine curiosity & a bit a facetiousness, I really don't know anything about the internals of the 1873 design. Marlin has leverguns (albeit modern designs) in .44mag, .45-70, .444, etc - is it terribly different than those? Also, wheelgun thread re-rail:

To compete with Colt's 1873, Remington updated the 1858 to a loading-gate design as the 1875.Centerfire conversion cylinders exist today for repro percussion guns, most often in .45C & .38spl - though they often cost as much as the repro gun itself, so you're better off with something like the Uberti loading-gate model to begin with.

Should've specified, this would just be a range gun, not carry. Are guns in 45Colt usually the same frame size as 44spl?

Speaking of .44 carry revolvers, I was looking at the 4" Redhawk, but it uses the same frame as the standard, i.e. "Goddamned enormous." e: haha, holy poo poo. The Model 21 might as well be engraved with "I took a shot a'cocaine and I shot my woman down"
