In Black Powder Cartridge News No. 100, I was able to tell you about the Uberti “Cattleman Target” version of the old Colt Single Action Army “Flat Top” or target model revolver. This gun is still available from Dixie Gun Works and frankly, it is what I will call one of the top offerings of the many “Colt clones.” In my review, and I’ll quote myself, I said, “If all of my wishes had come true, this new gun would be offered in .44 Smith & Wesson Russian/Special too.”
One of our readers who followed up on the review of that revolver was Gary Ladd, of Cat’s Shooting Sticks. We corresponded while Gary decided on purchasing a .45 Colt or a .44/40, but what Gary really wanted was one of those revolvers in .44 Special. He settled for getting one in .44/40 but then he thought about getting a spare .44 Special cylinder to go with it. He did that, and the idea sounded so good to me that I ordered a second cylinder for myself.

A COVID-19 Project
As far as the COVID-19 pandemic is concerned, I canât find much good to say about it. One thing I can say, though; I had a lot of idle time on my hands. After perusing YouTube videos during this time of lockdown, I came across a company that makes rifle kits â Kiblerâs Long Rifles.

When somebody hears the words âSharps rifle,â the first things that probably come to mind are the great buffalo hunts, the âWild and Wooly Westâ and tales of long-range shots, Indian attacks, and hunters freezing in blizzards.
