Last weekend with my dad. My mom got my dad a Remington New Army clone by Pietta at Cabelas last week- early Father's Day gift. Went out and shot it with him this past Sunday. Man, it was a blast. I really enjoyed the whole process of it all.
He loved it so much, he ordered a 1860 Army clone from Cabelas so we could both shoot at the same time ;D. He also picked up some casting equipment- .44 ball mold, scooper, pot- and we found a local scrap yard who'll sell us lead at .70 cents a pound- we plan on picking up 100lbs.
I wrote a thread a little while back asking about the Ruger Old Army- unfortunately the store sold all three.... one blued was under $300.... Live and learn and have a checkbook ready I guess
Anyway, had a really great time and looking forward to shooting the guns with my dad some more. I'll try and put some pics up that are better than my cell phone's pixel magic camera.
