Good job . . .  I keep telling myself I need one of those pistols . . .  and so far I keep losing the argument.

Gonna be in the right place one day . . . and the price is gonna be right . . .  and it'll come home with me

Then I'll look back at this again and check out the holster . . . 

May God bless,

Dwight

Nicely done, simple and elegant.:specool:

Dwight, yes, you definitely need a '51 Navy!;) I didn't need one but bought one anyway, there's just something about the '51 that's "right".

Not if you do the maintenance.  I can clean my cap and ball pistols almost as fast as a modern firearm.  You gotta clean black powder each and every time or it will rust up.
