Hey all.
I definitely earned me a gun this year. It was a hard one and I got a new job. I've just been mulling over what I want. A lead contender is a CZ Scorpion or a nice hunting shotgun, but I am also considering my first SAA revolver.
The only two brands I know are Cimarron and Uberti. I am pretty sure Uberti is owned by Beretta so I am inclined that way in terms of quality control, but I haven't handled any in person.
Freedom Arms here in Wyoming makes a very nice revolver, but they're well out of my price range.
I am unaware of current Smith or Colt options.
Any particular issue with an 1873 Cattleman Uberti in .45 Long Colt?
