Good Day

Does any one know who might have a .45 ACP Cylinder to fit in a Colt 1878 Frontier Revolver.

Perhaps a distributer south of the border


Many Thanks

Wayne

Not likely to be anyone.

Technically a saa cylinder is close, but the star is different.

Thanks for your replies.

The Idea is that if it is imported with the .45 ACP Cylinder it is not restricted and a true an antique at least according to what I read on the RCMP website

Would never actually fire that heavy a load in a 134 year old gun ( manufactured 1883 )

Kind Regards
