You brought two horses too many! That looks like so much fun forty.

Al... does yours have that floating firing pin safety? Mine has it and when you pull the hammer back I feel a drag or slight hang up as the hammer just breaks free but then fine after that. Not as smooth as my other Uberti built SA revolvers.
I'm going to remove the hammer today and see about shimming the firing pin into the locked firing position and removing the extra linkage.
Taylors and Co. has a hammer and trigger kit to convert the Cattleman back to it's old setup without the safety but don't know if it will work on the 12 shot version. Will call and find out. The kit puts the 4 click Colt action back in it as well.

Thanks guys for tuning in to the Range review! It shoots well and hits where you point it. If I miss with it it's me.
Was really soggy in places around my target areas due to all the rain and snow showers and rest of week more of same. Going to fix that problem if and when things dry out this year.

Forty I cant tell you for sure I have had mine for a couple of years. I would need to look at it when I get home. Was it made without one for a while?

Did a little research Forty mines probably the same as yours. They first came out in 2018.

That Billy Bones target made me laugh out loud. Love the ceegar in his teeth.
I used to have a 10 shot S&W M/617. Loved the revolver but it seems like it used to take me a week to clean it with all those little holes. Your 12 shooter would just add another day or two to that.
Thanks for putting a stop to all that ruckus at the saloon!!!
