    Any owner of such have any thoughts?

    A pretty pistol, Tezz! Is that a 5 1/2 inch barrel?

    Do you not remove the nipples, and give them a good clean too ?

    Not every time, perhaps after three or four sessions.

    I use copper slip high temp grease they use on car brakes.

    Thumbs up rogers and spencer

    shot a mates Euroarms R&S .44 today, was going for a pietta 1858 remington but not now, the R&S just seems to fit well in the hand, felt very comfortable and the accuracy from fixed sights was crack on, didn`t know I could shoot that good, sending a variation in for a .44 then will be looking for one, but will keep my .36 its a little cracker, cheers Tezz
