Just got a 1851 .44 brasser for free. Long story. Anyway I have may 1860 steel frame with the 5in octagon sheriff bbl. and navy grip. That is my keeper bp gun. So I’m thinking about maybe doing some barrel cutting and make a snub out of it. Or maybe get a sheriff bbl. Or just leave it as is. Oh I forgot, it’s new in the box still in plastic with a date code of 2014. Not a bad looking gun I just don’t like those l.o.n.g bbls. Thanks.
