Thread 64490005

I want a SAA, but looking at pictures they look like pretty big guns compared to even a full sized 1911.

then don't get one. it's as simple as cutting your dick off which you've probably done

>>64490014
What do you have against anime cowgirls anon?

Cimarron sells a small frame SAA made by Uberti. You could buy a Ruger Single Six if you don't mind .22. They also sell a nine shot .22 magnum and a seven shot .327 federal with the same frame called the Single Nine and Single Seven.

>they look like pretty big guns
Okay, and? Why is that a problem?

>>64490174
I don't see the point in an saa in a caliber not .45. Anything smaller throws the proportions of the gun off and looks funny.

>>64490174
>Cimarron sells a small frame SAA made by Uberti.
They are called The Lightning and Model P Jr.

>>64490014
>>64490203
Why are you constantly thinking about dicks, anon?

>>64490205
They rarely scale down the plowhandle grip to match the smaller frame. Birdshead grips look better since they are meant to be compact.

Well, single action revolvers are cool and I want one, but there’s something about big pistols I just don’t particularly like I guess.
I just sold a 1911 today cause I never shot it.
>>64490174
Is that true though? I thought the .38 Ubertis were the same size, and ironically heavier cause they didn’t take out as much material.

>>64490014
rent free

>>64490361
These are the models you want to look at. >>64490208
They do sell a Lightning that is a normal sized SAA, but those are usually chambered in .357 magnum or .45 long colt

everyone laugh at this >>64490369
fucking eunuch

>>64490452
I’ve never really thought about a lightning. I wish there were a way I could hold them in my hands.

>>64490562
you're welcome fren! suck my dick.

Correct.
>Well, single action revolvers are cool and I want one, but there’s something about big pistols I just don’t particularly like I guess.
Get a sheriff's model; they were a pain in the ass to reload, but they were smaller.

Uhoh being raided by dickless trannies who dont onow anythig about guns its the weekend on /K/ boys.

YWNBAW, fag.

>>64490205
My 12-shot .22 Uberti is a great gallery gun. Not sure why anyone would even want one in .45 colt, when they could get a Ruger in .357/.44/beeger if you want a real gun, and also the transfer bar safety to not have to carry "cowboy," with the hammer down on an empty chamber.

Ruger Vaquero 4U.

>>64494182
The army was better.

>>64490205
IIRC most of the originals (first gen) were in .44-40 or .38-40.
A Colt SAA with a 7&1/2" barrel is both thoroughly adequate for general use and a pleasure to fire.

>>64494649
A Schofield Is Fine Too.

>>64490005 (OP)
>>64490361
nigger, do you even like guns?
the fuck is wrong with you?

>>64494675
I do like funs.

>>64490005 (OP)
You don't want it. Single action revolvers are retarded and were a thing for so long in the US only because of its retarded patent laws cock-blocking innovations.

>>64491426
>he needs a transfer bar instead of just putting the firing pin in-between cartridges
I'll take a non-raped SAA thank you very much.

Get a heritage rough rider cocobolo with 4.75in barrel and be joyous.

Is 45 LC more fun than 45 ACP

>>64498568
no because 45acp revolvers exist while 45lc auto loaders dont

>>64501039
Is 45 lc basically the same?

>>64503326
.45 LC is somewhat versatile; some loads are weak so they can be used in old guns and tend to match .45 ACP; other loads are almost as strong as .44 Magnum, which is why some handloaders would treat it as a "poor man's 45-70."

>>64503685
So out of curiosity-
I had a 1911 in 45, and quite frankly I found out I don’t really like 45 ACP. However I found myself wanting a SAA clone in 45.
If I didn’t like 45 ACP, is it stupid that I’m looking at a 45 LC?

>>64503761
Depends on why you hated it, .45lc is a straight wall rimmed cartridge that can be loaded all the way from "cowboy" loads for launching wax slugs at paper, during boomer frontier dress up days all tje way to Earl's pissin' hot loads level so the reclil is what you make of it ajd I've yet to meet a person whose views on a roumd begins and ends with the diameter of tue bullet so Id doubt yoir views on acp will carry over to lc. Of you want to yeehaw im the woods an SAA is great, get a lee handloader kit and some black powder and make a mess it's a fun time, bonus is it's almost impossible to overload on BP and damage a modern gun made to handle smokeless.

>>64503787
>yeehaw im the woods an SAA is great
This is literally what I want. I watched Young Guns about a week ago and was like “Yeah, I’ve gotta get myself an SAA and go innawoods.”
>lee handloader kit
I will 100% have to look into this.
>Depends on why you hated it
I think because I could take 9mm, 38 Special, and .357 and shoot old pots, pans, and appliances and the bullets would go right through stuff. Whereas the 45 seemed to bounce off a lot of stuff.

bump

>>64503761
What if I told you that you could use both in the same gun?

>>64505367
No, I’m saying I had a 1911 in 45 ACP, found out I didn’t like it.
Now I’m wanting a SAA, in 45 LC; but I’m not sure I’ll even like it since I wasn’t a fan of 45 ACP.

You probably won't like it then.

>>64505402
that’s rough..
I have this autistic thing where I only really want a gun if it’s in the caliber it was originally intended for, so that’s why I can’t get behind a 38/357version.

>>64505414
But the 357s use the same frame size as the original doe, the 44/45s use a larger frame so retards don't blow up their gun

>>64505436
True, but ironically they’re heavier because less material is taken out of the barrel and cylinders; plus if I wanna larp as a cowboy; cowboys didn’t use .38 or 357

>>64505480
Ok, why don't you buy a black powder 44-40 then?

>>64505679
What’s the difference between a 44-40 and 45 ballistically speaking?

>>64505480
Cowboys definitely used .38 special in the twilight of the west era. Elmer Keith, an actual cowboy, invented .357 magnum.

>>64506415
>Cowboys definitely used .38 special
Cowboys used .38 Long Colt (or very rarely .38 S&W Short). .38 Special didn't exist until 1892. Elmer Keith was born in 1899 which was after the Open Range era ended; he is definitely a cool rancher, but he is not a cowboy as we imagine them.

>>64506431
Twilight era, not the open range era. Cowboys used Lugers, you'd best believe some used M&Ps.

>>64506480
>Cowboys used Lugers, you'd best believe some used M&Ps.
Anon, once barbed wire was spread everywhere and the trains ran everywhere, it was no longer the cowboy era. Sure there were old men who had been cowboys still alive, but Keith wasn't one of them. Keith was born one year after the Luger was invented. He never saw the cowboy era with his own eyes.

How hard would it be to get one in Canada ?

>>64506512
Does Canada really ban SAA revolvers?… man that is wilder than the wild west.

>>64506711
Canada laws change frequently enough that only people who live there can keep up. I remember in high school a YouTuber telling me that he could own black powder handguns; while I was in college, a friend who visited there told me that they couldn't own any handguns, only long guns, and now the government is taking away long guns.

>>64506773
That is honestly disgusting. I’ve got a friend that lives there, and he says it’s pretty bad in terms of immigrants and such.

>>64506495
Autistic pedant. You have an overly narrow definition of what a cowboy is.

>>64506512
antique class exists but .45lc ones don’t qualify, I believe they have to come in .41 which isn’t ideal

>>64506512
Can Canadians buy conversion cylinders?

>>64507160
I'm just speaking facts. The romanticized cowboys we see in media or history are from the 19th century. The guy who was 1 year old in the year 1900 was not a cowboy. If you won't make a clear distinction, then I guess any cattle rancher today is also a cowboy to you LOL.

OP here. Just bought pic rel. Now we wait for shipping.

The west wasn't tamed until 1920.
>>64509112
What caliber?

>>64511215
>What caliber?
45 LC

>>64490005 (OP)
So long as you understand that they were obsolete when they were brand new, pretty much all of the popularity comes from boomers remembering films and TV, and a cowboy's job was to move livestock around for shit pay.
However thanks to said boomers it's the only old-timey revolver you'll get at a reasonable price. They're not even that big by prevailing standards. One more reason to hate.
