    looks great. will be putting in a variation for one of these. what is the deal with spare cylinders, do they have to be put on with the variation.

    will take you up on that mate, have shot black powder pistol and enjoyed it. was thinking of
    putting in for a lbr but the boy won't be able to shoot it so this will do nicely.

    I was looking at these today, the 4" version feels so nice.
    I have a Ruger old army 45 stainless, which is very nice, but fancy a change.

    Hi Frag Muppet

    Can I ask exactly which brand of shotgun primers you're using ?

    I have a brand new Westlake .357 and I've got a problem with the cylinder getting *very* tight when firing and I think some of my primers are just a shade loose and are moving back with recoil out of the pockets.

    I'm using Remington STS209 primers - which are working perfectly on my Anvil Conversions Uberti pistol - and I wonder if they are slightly undersized.

    Thanks
    Paul M.
