I've been putting off diving into black powder because I abhor cleaning guns, but those are cool! _________________ Licensed/Bonded/Insured Hardwood Floor Installer/Finisher http://www.hardwoodfloorsnw.com/ |

These are really nice guns I can't stress that enough pieta has a pretty good product, and the 1851 Navy I bought from Taylor's, it is exceptionally sweet their gunsmiths do a nice job.

This could be a bad thing for me...financially. And damn the wood grips on that Diablo are impressive! What do those cost? I'm getting very interested, very quickly! _________________ Licensed/Bonded/Insured Hardwood Floor Installer/Finisher http://www.hardwoodfloorsnw.com/ |

Hey now, slow your roll. The 1851 is pretty sweet I think that actually might become a carry gun. And actually it's not that bad financially I think the gun was like 350, and the conversion cylinder was damn near as much at 250.
And alas, I wouldn't get too excited those are not wood grips on the Diablo it is a synthetic grip. |

Does the conversion cylinder require low-pressure .45 Colt loads?

Yes it says to use cowboy loads... The cylinder is fairly short, but I imagine anything that has a short enough O.A.L. is probably safe enough... Cylinder is hell bent for stout (no flutes/and 5 shots instead of six).
