Well I was going to send my .38-40 Taylor’s Uberti off to add sights and rebore a .357 cylinder to 10mm but I committed the ultimate sin and shot the donor. I think it will stay as is. It shoots extremely well. I have enough 10mm guns to play with. It also rides well in a Barranti holster I really need to take it outside and get better pics

Well, I did tell you this...
At least that they shot great. I took the reverse path. Bought a Uberti 10mm and added a 38-40 Cylinder.
I'd like to do a 10mm Magnum Cylinder one day...

Gun looks great! One of my favorite calibers. My Unique loads do 1050 fps in my 4 3/4” Colt. Very accurate and dead on the sights.
Enjoy!

I have the same gun and it shoots dead on at 35 yards with 7.0 of Green Dot and a 180 gr flat point. -Lee www.singleactions.com "Chasing perfection five shots at a time"

Nice pistols! pacecars , It's nice to have a few fixed-sight guns that shoot where you want them to with little fuss. I think I'd leave it that way too. I have/had fixed-sighted guns I'd rather have adjustable and vice-versa. When I get one that gets along with the load I like with fixed sights, I like to stay with the lower, less complicated profile. Nothing says you can't add that 10mm cylinder at some time in the future if you change your mind either. Just hang onto that 357 cylinder. If you're like me, you'd better tag it or you'll be studying it someday wondering what the heck you thought you needed THAT for.

I may just sell the .357 cylinder so I am not tempted to screw it up

Did you go with the aged ivory? Did you go through eBay? Last question, did you send them your grip frame or did they just send them to you?
