Default RE: 1860 revolver

Who made this revolver? Is this a Uberti revolver? They are very good quality. I bought the 1858 Remington Target model from Cabela's many years ago. the item number on it is UG-210083 . This is a very good shooter. Well made, very accurate, and does all I want. I am sure the revolver you are looking at would be a nice one as well.

The only reason I stay away from the Navy 1860 model is.. I had one many years ago. It chain fired (why I have no idea, because I had used a product called Spit Ball to cover the cylinders) and stretched the frame making the revolver worthless. Well not worthless actually. I took it to a gun smith who shortened the frame and the barrel a little, but after that I really did not want to shoot it. So I sold it to a person that hung it on his wall.
