I have always been curious about black powder BP /percussion revolvers.
Excluding the Ruger and genuine Colts re-release's, what importer, or are any of the import guns, worth it?

I would likely not shoot the thing to much, but I'm intrigued.

Also, for a fun gun, .36 or .44. cal? Thirty six seems logical, but the pistols are higher priced.

The 1860 Colt Army has always "talked" to me. Sleek, deadly looking, kind of a an antebellum Python.
