Some folk get mighty twitchy when they see me carrying 6 in me 75 Cimarron Rem clone. 'You're gonna lose a toe". Etc etc. Well if you do it right, you can. An old family friend told me of an even older trick to carrying all 6 loaded. That being, shave a notch in the rim of your case with a file just big enough for the firepin. Load your first as normal, your second is that notched case, with notch facing to the first cartridge, between the 'bosom" of the cases, and even with the primers/firing pin. You then load the other four as normal. On the 4th, rather than cocking and lowering the hammer fully, barely releave your hammer on half cock, (over cocking could end up binding your cylinder until rotated manually, practice a bit before carrying that way to get a handle on how much to cock) and then lower it between the chambres manually, and there the pin *should rest within that notch. If done right, you can carry your SA revolver fully loaded, and it will cock.and index just as it would any other time. A trick passed from one True Old Cowboy onto me, I share it here with you. Cheere, and happy shooting, mates. ^.-.^

@@Beuwen_The_Dragon That'll work! I carry the Schofield with 6 up and the hammer/firing pin between rims, but that works on that gun without modification. Doing what you're talking about on a Colt pattern and keeping the same two pieces of brass marked for that position would be something I'd do. I know there are those who say that it'll hurt the mechanism, but the mechanism is the same basically as the cap and ball Colt pattern guns we do that all the time with to carry them on the safety pins between chambers. So long as the bolt retracts before the hand moves the cylinder, I don't envision a problem.

The feller whom shared this secret with me was truely one of the Last Old Cowboys, living out of saddlebags as a lad back when motorcars were still outnumbered by horses, and he carried a fully loaded Colt on his belt till his dying day. So this is indeed a 'trade secret" I trust with me life. And i do see how some folk could feel iffy about lowering their hammer while half cocked, rather than full, as you need to find the particular sweet spot on your gun for when to lower the hammer. But, it is how i carry mine, and I shall pass this trick onto everyone I know. Might even make a wee video on it sometime. How to do it proper without binding up the gun and such.

But the larger gun is also way heavier. If I can find .38spl and .357 range ammo, I'll make time to shoot them. Hopefully that will happen soon.

Sometimes a gun needs some tlc. And like the lads riding out in the country, if your gun needs some work, you dinae fuss over a wee marring in the finish, you just do what needs to make it go bang. Me 1875 (acquired after your recommendation) has a cylinder binding issue. Took it apart and realised not only was the backface slightly uneven, tighter on the left side, there was also a sloppy ridge which would catch brass and bulged primers after firing. Didn't fret any, just took me files and slowly shaved off till me cylinder would rotate freely and the backface was flat as can be. Could have sent it off to uberti or some such, but this here is my gun. I sure as heck got meself some aesthetic flaws, so why not me own shooty too? Happy Shooty mate. ^.-.^

Go for the Pietta 1858 Remington New Army. Excellent and the cheapest around. After the War of Northern Agression, Union soldiers were allowed to buy surplus pistols and they chose the Remington two to one over the Colt for reliability and faster reloading. Conversion cylinders to fire modern cartridges can be purchased separately here in America from companies like Taylor's, Cimmeron and Buffalo Arms without the government being notified. I'm not sure if they ship overseas, but the pistols run about $300 and cartridge conversion cylinders are about $250. I own two.

Well...technically, the bird's head grip doesn't have that the flat place on the grip frame right behind the hammer. This is patterned more like the original Colt's Thunderer and Lightning double action grip frame. A bird's head would be more likely to rotate the muzzle upward in a long, heavy double action trigger stroke than this style would. The lip of the gripframe behind the flat settles into the web between the thumb and index finger and tends to pull more straight back when the trigger is pulled. It's "farby" and unnecessary on a single action, but it's still cool.

Cimarron doesn't offer a transfer bar model, though they do offer "Pre War" Uberti framed guns that have the 3-click retracting/projecting firing pin Cattleman II gizmo..... Their Pietta based guns (such as the El Malo II and the Thunderball) and the Old Model framed Uberti built Thunderer aren't tansfer bar or Cattleman II guns. These are the ones with the humped Thunderer style grip frame. I'm not as familiar with what transfer bar guns and grip frame combinations are available from other importers and makers.

@@plowboysghost I have a Heritage rough rider (made by Pietta) big bore. I found it by dumb luck on gun broker and got it for a really good deal. Everybody only want tactical pistols now. But I want the birds head and the octagon barrel is awesome looking. The Pietta's have a transfer safety bar like double action revolvers, and only click 3 times. So I guess you only get col.

@@scottydouglass1892 The ones I spoke of were the Pietta guns sold by Cimarron...which don't have transfer bars. Pietta makes a line that does (I have done videos with the two Pietta transfer bar guns I used to own...a Heritage Big Bore and a Century imported Pietta). Traditions also sells some Pietta transfer bar guns, and I believe EMF does, as well.

I enjoy the content. And 🖕🏼ammo scalpers.

I don't know who has what in stock anywhere, but I'd get up with Jim at Just Guns / Bluegrass and Bullets in Hamilton. facebook.com/Bluegrass-Bullets-dba-Just-Guns-333522400158384 He's my regular dealer and tends to have a lot of what I'm after in stock when I least expect it.

Heheh...I'm not seriously trying to beg primers off folks. I have 1200 laid back, so i can reload over half the brass I have that uses Large Pistol. I did run in that Cabelas in Huntsville yesterday while I was waiting on the guy selling me the lead, but of course they didn't have any primers.

It's better to have done it a million X play playing with it while it's unloaded. Then to only do it while it's loaded and yes I said playing with it we all do it

I’m a new follower of yours who just stumbled on your channel. I recently picked up an El malo first edition and absolutely love it. Here’s a link to the video which I would be be honored if you would watch someday. kzread.info/dash/bejne/Zaeu2LhpqdCXaaw.html I do have a question for you. Would standard single action holsters of the appropriate length fit the octagon barrel? Thanks and keep up the great videos celebrating freedom.

THanks for the link. I'll check your video out. With this El Malo II, I used the same holster that I carry my 4-3/4" SAA clone in. It fit with no issue.
