Hello all,

I have an 1858 Remington copy from CVA, it started as a kit, I will agree that the internals are a bit soft, I have replaced a couple of springs. I used it for Civil War reenacting and I was pleased with it's performance. I used it for live firing as well and it was pretty accurate. I am now getting a cartridge converter for it to use as a CAS gun.
