Isn't the Pietta 1862 Police & Pietta 1851 basically the same revolver both six shots same frame, just different barrels and cylinders?
That said I would pick either one, I do like the looks of their 1862 Police.

The 5 shot Uberti is a smaller frame and the video I saw he had lots of problems with the caps jamming the gun.
