The Pietta Remy has a slightly longer cylinder so it will hold a tad more powder than the Uberti Remy.
About .040 give or take.

Other differences are, that on the Pietta Remy, the loading lever latch located on the underside of the barrel, is just lightly silver soldered in place in a hole and on some occasions I've read about, has become loose and fallen out.
Three out of four of my Pietta Remingtons are dovetailed.

The older Pietta's don't have as nice of fit and finish as the newer models. Both Uberti and Pietta have upgraded their fit and finish and are manufacturing some really nice revolvers.
