I recently acquired a F.LLI Pietta 1851 Navy Steel Sheriff, 5.5" Octagonal Barrel, .36 Caliber revolver and instantly fell in love with the way it handles, shoots, etc. Now I'm looking for a second one (even if I have to build it from parts), as well as a F.LLI Pietta 1851 Navy Steel, 7.5" Octagonal Barrel, .36 Caliber revolver, so it's goodbye Remingtons.

First up for sale/trade is a F.LLI Pietta 1858 Remington Old Silver, 8" Octagonal Barrel, .44 Caliber revolver, Serial# R338844. Pistol is three years old and slightly used (30 rounds or so). The revolver itself is in pristine condition, though the cylinder shows the normal amount of wear around the cylinder's locking lugs from the assembly/disassembly during cleaning and is still in it's styrofoam box.

Was purchased from Taylor & Company. New prices (on line) for this revolver run the gambit from $422 to $539. I would prefer to trade this Remington for a F.LLI Pietta 1851 Navy Steel Sheriff, 5.5" Octagonal Barrel, .36 Caliber revolver, but will take $300 +shipping (from SC.).

The second revolver is an Uberti 1858 Remington White Finish, 5.5" Octagonal Barrel, .44 Caliber revolver, Serial# A45078. Pistol is two years old and has only been test fired (6 rounds). The revolver is in pristine condition as it was purchased for display only and has been kept in a soft-padded carrying case.

Purchased from Taylor & Company with prices (new) ranging online from $304 to $328. I would prefer to trade this Remington for a F.LLI Pietta 1851 Navy Steel, 7.5" Octagonal Barrel, .36 Caliber revolver, but will take $200 +shipping.

The revolvers are in South Carolina and I can be reached at: wargaming(at)yahoo(dot)com -or- emishi(at)comporium(dot)com -and... as I lack a digital camera... if pictures are needed, I'll do my best to work up some cell-phone photos for anyone interested.

Thanks for looking.[/align]
