Customer Reviews for Taylor's & Co. 1858 Remington Conversion Black 45 Long Colt Revolver

Beautiful gun. Great price. Excellent service. Will recommend to all that I know.

This has to be one of the coolest guns I own....I love the way it feels in my hand and how it points...A beautiful gun that will not disappoint...Buds was flawless and shipping was super fast...A++++

Fantastic product that I will enjoy for years to come

Great fit & finish to this conversion reproduction. Perfect hammer pull & 2 lb 8 oz trigger is very smooth. Purchased additional cylinder from Taylor's, just to do a Clint Eastwood "Pale Rider" style reload (even though an 1861 is actually used in the movie). Plunger & Loading lever manipulation to perform a cylinder change takes practice, but it's fun and easy to shoot. Purchasing a firearm through Bud's Gun Shop has been a great, easy experience. Love their cash price discounts. Can't go wrong buying from them. Thanx

SA is an acquired taste, not for everyone. Revolvers don't make sense if you really like to spray a lot of lead at the range or wherever you shoot. I have shot many thousands of pistol rounds from autos, and my favorite pistol is a S&W model 586, in 357 mag, 6inch extended lug target version. This reproduction 45 colt is my first colt 45, despite having several 45 ACP, some for 35 yrs., I'm really anxious to get to the range to shoot this one, its so beautiful. I had 2 six guns as a kid, and never really got over this cowboy thing, now I'm going to indulge. It will fit right in as I belong to the SASS peoples range in rural New Mexico, and they're always around in their full bore cowboy gear. Its a different kind of experience than blasting away with AR's and AK's, for sure. Taylors has done a really nice job in recreating these old guns with a modern cartridge and nice attention to detail. I want to get an open-top Army next. of course from Bud's as they are the best online firearms people, safe to deal with, and very customer focused.

BEAUTIFUL GUN SHOOTS SMOOTH, I LOVE IT.

The gun came in excellent condition. No issues with fit or finish. The action operates well. The grip is a little short for someone with big hands but other wise a very nice reproduction.

love it shoots good vary accrete at the range people come up to look at it and ask about it . AL>

Beautiful pistol, great price. No issues with shipping or the dealer when I picked up pistol. I look forward to shooting this baby. I think it’s quite likely I’ll be a returning customer.

This is the coolest gun! I've drooled over it for months and finally bought it after the go ahead from the wife. It comes ready to take .45LC and loads like a modern revolver. Because it can go from cartridge to black powder, the level is still attached, which means to eject the rounds you have to open the lever to get to the ejector rod. I only have two criticisms: first is that the ejector rod does not have a spring on it so you have to push and pull the rod each time you eject the round. The second thing is that the pin that holds the cylinder in place is held by the lever beneath the barrel, so when I go to eject a round, I have to pull down the lever. This means that not only the ejector rod is free, but also the pin that holds the cylinder. I have to hold the cylinder pin in place whenever I eject rods. However, these are small complaints. The gun is BEAUTIFUL! and shoots smooth and accurately. I shot 60 rounds with it right out of the box and had no problems hitting targets at 33 yards dead center. Buds was awesome and the price can't be beaten. I bought two of these are the same time and they cost only $200 more than if I was to buy ONE of these guns on another site. The gun to to the FFL dealer the same week I ordered it too, so I was able to get everything in one week. Love it!

This is a quality made gun. It shoots extremely well. I would recommend to anyone looking for this type of pistol.

Couldn't be happier with this purchase! Looks just like the gun used on Hell On Wheels. The trigger pull and action are smooth.

The purchase; Needless to say, but you new gun shoppers will want to know that Bud's came through again! An inventory that is mostly in stock and available, excellent prices and no shipping charge on guns keeps this buyer coming back for more. The purchased; I always thought if I could only own one gun, it would be a western style revolver and somewhere on it would be stamped Colt 45. However, while searching for this masterpiece, I realized it would come with a very hefty price tag. Plus, if I wanted to keep the value up on this Colt eye candy-safe queen-hardware, I probably should never fire it, ZZzzzzz. Meantime; I found Taylor's & Company offers western style Colt, Remington, Schofield and other brand replicas for about a third of the price. But, my latest purchase was not without fault! Somehow my new 1858 Remington Conversion was missing the front sight. I accepted the gun from FFL guy anyway. And then sent Taylor's an email and picture describing the missing part. Just a few days later a new front sight showed up in my mail box. I highly appreciate a company that stands behind their product. Now; I have the style of handgun that I admire the most. Plus it's a hoot-to-shoot. Especially when launching black powder charged 45 Long Colt bullets down range, available from Buffalo Arms Company, Ponderay, Idaho, USA. Taylor's & Company and the quality of their 1858 replica have triggered my decision to probably do all this again and then again pass my experiences on to you. Speaking of triggers; My trigger pull weight scale showed 2 lbs. 4 ounces on several tests right out of the Taylor's box! Delightful, ya think? After I made this purchase, I got a chance to watch Clint Eastwood in the spaghetti western movie Pale Rider. Guess what Italian made guns he's using to bring down the bad guys.

I see this item is now out of stock. I am happy to say I just got mine from Bud's! I love Bud's Gun Shop. I save sales tax on to of their unbelievable prices. Remington 1858 converted into a 45 Long Colt. This is truly a piece of history. Uberti went above and beyond this one. It will fire blanks for you Civil War buffs. I got a piece of history for less than 500 bucks. Best service, no problems with this wheel gun, and best of all is the price. Thank you Bud's!

SERVICE WAS BEYOND EXPECTATION. 2 THUMBS UP ON YOUR SERVICES.. NO PROBLEMS AT ALL ON THIS END. THANK YOU !!!!!!
