My wife has a couple Cimmeron Thunderers with the 1st Gen. frame. Those set screws for the base pin are a pain in the butt....if you get them tight enough (finger tight ain't enough)that they don't shoot loose and fall out (try and find one of those little beautys after it hits the ground) you better have a pair of pliers in your pocket if you have to pull the cyl for any reason. Maybe I'll have them slotted to accept a coin and try that.  I hate em'....  >:(

Im with you, there is a good reason Colt's went to the 'improved' take-down........
