Default RE: Which Percussion Cap Handgun?

Like cayuqad said, stick with the Steel framed revolvers because even if you do not chain fire it, brass framed models will stretch.

Either Revolver that you mentioned will be a fine shooterfor you but unless you intend to holster the Walker in a horse saddle or something I'd stay away from that one but the 1858 Remington, 1851 Colt Navy, or possibly the 1860 Colt Army would make a great holster gun for ya, I tend to like the Colt designs but that is my preference.

Pietta is a good manufacturer I have one of their 1860 Colt Army's & it shoots great, but Uberti & Cimaron are also good companies just a little more on the price tag.

If you want to do the conversion deal then the 1858 Remington would be a better suit because they can be obtained with the loading gate which makes reloading a bit more easy.
