    You need nickel to be the Milky Bar Kid.

    The Schofields should reach us in December.
    If I read right the antique finish is pellet and the nickel bb.
    So you have two reasons not to buy the nickel!

    I rather like the Cowboy.
    Shoots as well as the more expensive Umarexs.

    Hi again John, yep I certainly do have big mitts, so I will look into that pistol, thank you, and cheers Pat, but as you know, the inner kid in me makes me not so good at waiting patiently, but guess I will just have to this time, as have little choice lol. Atb: G.

    Ps. From a 'FUN' perspective, I enjoy my BB shooters in equal measure to my pellet firing pistols, just so long as I keep them in context.

    Sod that, just phoned Pellpax, and pre-ordered and pre-paid for one to be delivered via their RFD delivery service (under £20, which imho is silly cheap). God bless the BBS and God Bless spontaneity lol. Went for the antique finished example with the ivory coloured grips (the BB shooter livery), rather than the deep blued example with wood effect grips (the pellet shooters livery). What fun. Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this thread.

    That's where we may differ slightly, then, coz quite clearly, I am not.

    Going back to this thread's starting subject, the Sheridan, I have just had a good look at several fresh images of said Sheridan Cowboy Remington 1875s on line, and am not just saying this because I've since bought a Schofeld in one of the livery finishes I was after, but as I have just noticed that the Sheridan's have 'COWBOY' embossed on them as large as life above the pistol grip (which does nothing to arrest my 'Cap Gun' comment of earlier), unfortunately, as the entrepreneurs of Dragons Den would say: "Sorry, I'm out".

    Yippeeee! PellPax called today to say my Schofield is in, and to arrange a delivery day via their courier. Have opted for Sat 16th. Expect a frothing fevered-pitch post sometime that afternoon.
