Remington 1858
Date:July 24, 2012
I found this to be built well & the finish was great! Pietta has stepped up on there game & this shows in this handgun. Works great & no defects I could find. I have gotten the 5" barrel one as well as the standard one & find them both to be great! Good job guy's.

I'm hooked!
Date:July 9, 2012
I bought this revolver as my first ever BP gun and now I am 100% hooked. Ladies and gentlemen if your thinking about buying one of these and you have money for another addiction, DO IT! This model with the shorter barrel shoots amazingly well and I consistently see 4 inch groups at 25-30 yards. I use a lubed felt wad and 25 grains of FFF Triple Seven for target loads (I’m going to try 15 grains soon) and 30 grains for hunting or protection which gives it a heck of a punch. This gun uses cci #10 caps with .454 lead balls and I have put over 500 rounds through it without a misfire. The recoil feels like a full size 9mm or a .380 except your shooting a large chunk of lead with big boom factor and lots of smoke and its sure punches a large hole on paper. I have had people approach me at the range asking if I was shooting a Raven. Even the ladies enjoy shooting this large caliber pistol with the recoil being as manageable as it is. I am so pleased with this purchase that I am saving for a Stainless Buffalo 1858 with the 12 inch barrel and target sights. I have read online that these are accurate to 50-100 yards and produce muzzle velocities of 1100+ feet per second. If you’re considering this gun, do it. It has pleasantly exceeded my expectations and is now a new passion.

1858 Remington
Date:June 26, 2012
The most practical black powder revolver in my opinion and the best to convert to 45.lc. With practice you can swap the cylinder in 3 seconds....

AWESOME SHOOTER
Date:June 25, 2012
TOOK MY NEW PIETTA MODEL 1858 NEW ARMY .44 CAL. REVOLVER OUT TO THE RANGE. LOADED IT AND WAS TRULY IMPRESSED.
FIRST SIX SHOTS WERE AT 30 FEET AND COULD BE COVERED WITH A HALF DOLLAR. I AM A PRETTY GOOD SHOT BUT THIS GUN SHOTS BETTER THAN I DO.
FIRST PIETTA I HAVE PURCHASED BUT WON'T BE THE LAST.

Fine Revolver -- Pietta
Date:June 12, 2012
This my first black powder revolver from Cabela's. It is a spectacular piece. I will buy from them again, no question about it. The gun is mechanically excellent, and it looks great. The fit and finish are superb. It loads and shoots very nicely. I have large hands, and I really like the girth of this pistol. The purchase went smoothly, thanks to Cabela's.

The best cap and ball revolver ever
Date:June 9, 2012
I bought my first short barrel Model 1858 back in 2004 and it quickly became my favoite . Beside the short and handy size it hit dead on at 15 yards .My other cap'n ball required so much aimming compensation it took away all the fun.The only issue I had with the short barrel was that it required extra force to seat the ball home but the more I shot it the less I notice this drawback.
I finally get around to buy a second one after so many years. I can now have one in each hand at the range.

1858 shorty

Several friends of mine and myself have owned this pistol and find it to be a very accurate shooter! I recommended this to anyone looking at buying a cap and ball revolver and wants a shorter barrel.

Good Value
Date:March 1, 2012
Just received my Pietta 1858 Remington with 5 1/2" barrel and it's on par with the quality of my other Pietta revolvers which is excellent . Appreciate the bigger grips and lighter hammer pull on my gun . Would of made a better choice in 1860 , and be a toss up between the Colt and the Remington had they made it this way back then . Thanks Cabelas for the fast service !

The Returns of the 1858
Date:February 28, 2012
I have other Pietta revolvers and none have had these problems from Cabelas.1st revolver timing off half a chamber, scratches on Frame returned. (1 month later) Now the 2nd revolver Trigger guard looks like it was polished with a rock, grips not finished with scratches. Grips also 3/8 "oversize from frame so it will be returned. Supposely the Pietta quality has gone up from what I am seeing not so.

Quality revolver at a great pirce!
Date:February 18, 2012
I recently purchased a New Army revolver with the 5-1/2" barrel after shooting one that belonged to a friend of mine. Cabela's had a deal on them that couldn't be beat!
The fit and finish was excellent, especially the grain on the grips. Shortly after receiving the first one, I bought another one so I could have a matched set to use for Cowboy Action Shooting.
They are both great shooters and I would recommend them to anyone who wants to get into black powder shooting.
