  Ubertis are purdy, great for wall hangers and movie props. Piettas are shooters with much better actions, properly manufactured and hardened internal parts and perfectly timed actions. Uberti still anchors the ejection housing directly to the barrel instead of a lug last time I checked unlike Colt and Pietta and that's a part that will break sooner or later on Ubertis.

  I recently bought one of the Pietta made versions of these. It's the "Pistolero" version, and it's nearly identical to the original Colt. I'm highly pleased with it.

  Absolutely best video I've seen on the subject. You should be proud in your ability to make an informative video.

  This guy did the best description of uberti & pietta I've ever seen. Covered all the basics and then some.

  The grips on the Pietta have a slight overlap called "proud."  This is so when the wood shrinks the grips still fit.

  Interesting - I always thought Pietta was just another importer of Unberti guns.  I didn't realize Pietta was a separate manufacturer.

  Great video, thanks. I’ve got the pre-war Pietta pistolero in .45 colt. &nbsp;I absolutely love it.. and actually had it in my hand while the video was playing.. as I followed all your explanation.<br>Tough finding ammo for it during the past couple years. Sheesh. I think I’ll go grab another one chambered in .357 before they change the safety bar… thanks again.

  Best Cimarron comparison video on YouTube. Well researched and very informative. I believe the extra screw in the Uberti box is to replace the one that holds the cylinder rod in place, it fits flush to the frame. I currently own The Frontier 4 3/4&quot; Old Silver Frame Pre-War Model, Laser Engraved with Checkered Walnut Grips in 45LC made by Pietta ( model PP410LSFW ) and am hoping to get the 1860 Richards Mason Conversion Type II in 45LC with the 8&quot; barrel soon. Thanks again. Tucson Jack

  The cylinder rod has a second notch. Push it to the second notch and it can&apos;t fire. It keeps the hammer in the first click position. Thats the safety

  Don&apos;t mean to be a pain with the PIE-etta comment, brother... it was just driving me nuts... I just wanted to say that your video has lots of excellent information in it, and it&apos;s very well done. So, cheers to that, and I&apos;ve subscribed to be able to get notifications for more of your videos. :)
