This revolver was made by Army San Paolo (Euroarms) caliber .44 stainless steel model of 1860 Colt Army. Stag grip is not original, I did it on my own.

That's a pretty gun! The stag grips really look nice. I have to say that I don't have one at all like that.... but would like to!

Beautiful! I have one old Euroarms, but it sure doesn't look like yours.

First, I want to welcome you. Now, that is one pretty '60 Colt Army...good, good job on the stag grips.

Show us some more.

Now that is a way cool colt! I also noticed that you dovetailed a new front sight blade-or did it come that way?

Thanks for your praise !

When I bought this revolver it was junk. I rebuilt all the moving parts of it.
I decreased the gap size for .12 mm(sorry) because of the new (Pietta) parts I had to do the timing of it. Then I did dovetailed front side blade and the stag grip. I did all of them without machines. Here are some pics.

I did an other 1851 Navy Sheriff revolver also here it is.

Are you interested in other stag works ? :roll:

Welcome to the forum. You have done a great job considering you had no milling machines for the dovetails. I too made a dovetail front sight using only files and it was a job!

Those stag grips are beautiful! Really sets the tone on the gun! I like stag better than Ivory. It's stronger and takes on a nice age as well.

You are a craftsman!

Dan Chamberlain,

Thank you for your honorable mention.
Here is some other stuff:

Very interesting projectiles.
Did you have that bullet mould custom made, or order it?
Or did you simply order them?
I'd be interesting in trying those projectiles. Where do I get some?
