So, bought my first cap and ball after thinking about buying one for like 15 years. To many other gun purchases have taken priority for some reason, but now I finally got it. Walked out of the shop with a Traditions 1851 made by Pietta. What really swayed me was a spur of the moment purchase of an Uberti 1851 cartridge conversion. After shooting that, I was surprised at how well it pointed and felt in the hand. I thought it would be barrel heavy, but it really isn't at all. While the cartridge conversion is cool, especially with rounds packed with blackpowder, the cap and ball adds a bit more work and fun....at least I hope. So, what's your opinion on which won should I get next?
