Ol Pearly talking about his 50 Hawken got me to digging around because I was thinking there may be some good balls around here for him to try
Ain't found them yet but did find a few things that I had forgotten about
-
44 cap and ball
50 Bobcat
50 Waterson
the Waterson is a bench gun, I think those days are long gone.
-
I have a terrible time with pics on here
sorry I will try taking them again tomorrow
-
Cool Guy ! Bet that Waterson is a tack driver - Bob.
-
Cool Guy! I've got a bobcat as well. Nice little gun for the amount of money that it takes to acquire one. How do you like yours, mine shoots pretty good?

That pistol is a looker. I've always wanted an old single action cowboy gun and I think that's the model I'm going to go with, though in a cartridge conversion, lol.
-
Nice collection, Guy. I'd love to shoot that Waterson.

If you buy the right one in Blackpowder with a metal back strap you can by a cylinder to shoot .44 or .45LC. A lot of the Italian guns and Ruger will handle them.
-
Yeah, I've seen a lot of models that are either black powder, a combo model that will do both changing the cylinder, or straight cartridge conversion. I was unable to find a cartridge conversion for the LeMat unfortunately, that thing is one heck of a gun.
-
Yes, a beast.
-
Sure wish I could get this picture posting thing down sometimes they work but most times not
-
The Waterson weights about 10 lbs
the sights maybe worth more than the gun
of course none of if gets ya there without a good trigger
-
Sorry for the poor pics seems the only one the site will let me post
-
The guns pictured above have not seen the light of day for several years
because a simple stick with a string fits me so well and because they bring back memories of the guns that I no longer have
some of wich are a 32 cal Cherokee and a 50 cal TC Hawkin both of wich saw alot of time in the feild and I cherish the thought of them and miss them deeply, then there is that costum made long gun in 36 cal
she had a full length barrel so she stood quite tall and hade interchangeable locks one flint and one cap just to match my mood that day
well enough of what used to be

Nice collection, Guy. I love that pistol.
