I have an old uberti 1860 army 44 b/p that was my dad's from the 70's and wonder what it would take to modify into a 7-shot 38sp?
I did some rough measuring and I don't see how it would be physically possible to get 7 .38 Specials in there. Six, yes.
Then there is the barrel which would have to be sleeved to go from its present .44 caliber to .357.

Also, is the frame brass or steel? Steel frames are the recommended material for cartridge conversions.
