Yeah that is the price, for just the revolver, I opted for the option that came with the "starter kit" which is 199

That makes sense then.

Nice...
I opted for the 1858 Remington New Army with the extra cylinder. (Cabellas $254.99 shipped to my door)

I wanted the "era favorite" with the full steel frame. And the option (if I choose) to use a conversion cylinder and .45 Colt center fire ammo.

WOW that's beautiful....Have you shot it yet?
I have been reading watching videos on the history of these guns, I can see this sucking me in
The head of the screw prevents the wedge from coming out and getting lost, while allowing it to be pulled out enough for disassembly of the gun. There is no need or even reason to remove it. All removing it accomplishes is to wear out the screw, bugger up the slot, and lead to both the screw and the wedge getting lost.
There is no reason or need to even loosen the screw. Next time, try disassembling the gun without so much as touching that screw. You'll see what I mean.
Wow beautiful collection, threeband!Wow, that is great. I predict you are really going to like that '51 Navy. I think those licensed Colts were made by Uberti, with final finishing by Colt.
I've said elsewhere that my very first handgun was an Uberti '51 Navy which I got at the Dallas gun show in the spring of 1980. I have always liked the lines and the handling of the '51. It is just a wonderful piece of art. I think you see now why Wild Bill Hickock, Elmer Kieth, and I like the '51 Navy so much.
Here's mine, among others, in this picture from the thread I linked to in post #8 of this thread.
Ok finally got it to work
Yeah that what I have read, I'm hoping to get out and shoot in the next week or tooThe front sight on yours is taller than it is on mine. That's going to help. These things generally shoot high.
