Stumbled across this baby. Adjustable sights! Been wanting one for some time but they're usually way too expensive (in other words I wanted one, but not badly enough to pay list price). Sticker on this one said $139 and what's not to like about that?
It's a Pietta and in great shape. Me likey.
Cheers,
Oly

That would be impossible to pass up, U could pick up Cans for one afternoon and pay for it.
Nice looking BP for sure. I'm assuming 44 ?

Congrats! I have one just like it
The sights are adjustable but you do want to adjust to your load of choice and leave them there - as they aren't really repeatable. Still, it's really nice to find an accurate load at your desired "power level" and then sight the gun to the load.
You can also get a Kirst conversion cylinder for these and shoot mild 45 Colt loads out of it with no mods to the gun.

Daggum cold has me beat (I hate summer colds...) but as soon as I'm well I'll get out and give up a range report.
Best,
