[North East Redneck]

I just spoke to a gentleman @ Jacks Trading Post. Nice guy, informative and friendly. He recommends the Kirst conversion. I will have to put a little cash aside, get the conversion cylinder(s) and reloading equipment. This sounds like a good way to go.
The .45ACP also sounds good. Think I may try both, 45ACP in the ROA, if one is available, haven't looked for that yet, and the Cowboy special in the 1858.
Am I on the right track? Both sound like they would be an enjoyable shooting experience.
