I bought the new "Round Barrel 1851 Navy Colt" (Their name) from Cabela's because, A) I didn't have one, and B) it was on sale.

Me too, I got suckered in on the price, nice revolver. My plan is to make it a belly gun. 2.5 inch barrel and round the grip frame in the back.

Then, by accident I came up with one at the gun show (That would be the same gun show that I have been griping about in a different thread.). This is a Navy Arms, brass frame, round barreled 1851 Navy in .44 Cal.

I have a Navy Arms brass 51 Navy in .36 that was made by Uberti in 64, nice little gun. It has been antiqued at one time. I want to defarb the barrel and frame and redo the antique finish.
Nothing wrong with these brass frame guns, keep the load reasonable and they should last a long time. I have five all together now.
