    .
    As stated, I currently only have the BB version of the Schofield (although as Pat indicates above, me being me, that may well change, lol ), and that is a smooth bored pistol.

    As the pellet firing Webley Mk.VI sports a rifled barrel, however, whereas the BB version is smooth bored, given that the Schofield range appears to be from an interconnected stable, unlike the Cowboy, it is highly likely that the pellet firing Schofield may well have a rifled barrel, too?

    Am sure someone with both versions () will be along soon to clarify. Meanwhile my new toy and I are off out for a further bout of plinking ...

    Fair point, but there's usually a premium for a rifled barrel.

    Look at the SAA Colts.

    I must be in a minority in not liking the mock worn finish on western guns. I much prefer an even paint job , whether black or silver. Preferably the former.

    Are these available or are we still waiting for them in the UK?

    It would be nice if they could eventually come up with a short barrelled version of the Schofield, and a 4.75 inch barrelled version of the Colt, the real gun slingers' gun as seen in so many classic westerns.

    I looked down the barrel of the pellet firing model and the barrel is smoothbore. As far as we could tell the only difference was the finish and the cartridges which is why there is very little difference in the price.

    As I suspected.

    We were told the Remington had a smooth barrel and could shoot pellets and bbs.

    If the Schofields are all smooth barrelled, why wasn't this made explicit to buyers?

    I wonder.
