Eli Report post Posted August 26, 2021 My uncle had an old 1858 Remington frame on his office wall for years. Led to me buying one when I was 13 when I convinced my parents somehow black powder was a good habit to start  2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edge Report post Posted August 26, 2021 That's pretty cool. My grandad found a Colt Dragoon in southern N.Mexico that had spent and loaded cylinders. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
