Anyone have a uberti schofield?

[rempel429]

Was looking at them today, sort of like'em was wondering if anyone has taken one for a run?

Been a couple for sale on the EE. Sounds like a few cowboy shooters are playing with them so there should be some good information and aftermarket stuff out there.

I've had one for a few years. Fun gun. - dan

Had one for awhile. Appeared built well, beautifully finished. And shot well.

I have one. In 38 spl. It looks nice and is fairly well made. It does attract a lot of attention. It is a funny firearm to shot. You get a lot of "backsplash" every time you pull the trigger. Burnt powder and such. It is messy to shoot. You can always feel it on your face. I find it difficult to hit anything with it. Mind you, I spend 90% of my handgun time with a cap and ball Remington. So I have never given the Schofield a real chance. I am fairly good with the remingtons. If I had the money and chance, I would buy another one just like it at the drop of a hat. Go for it. You will not be sorry.

I've got the .44 Russian version with the spur trigger guard. Expensive as Cowboy guns go, but I can't #### it with one paw. Great two paw gun.

I am reluctantly willing to part with it for that reason.

I have a s&w 45 schofield made in 1876
It shoots real nice, and don't have to go to gun range it's classified as antique

Thanks for the input guys much appreciated, I'm still on the fence between this and a good compact semi-rifle... I just really like top break revolvers for some reason, reliable and just something about they way they eject spent casings

You can also get them milled to accept moon clips if you're really racy.

... But not for use in CAS.

I have one in .45 LC that I was running in CAS, I found that I shot very well with mine, though it is a bit of a stretch to reach the hammer with your thumb if firing one-handed. I really loved how much it sped up reloads when on the clock.

They are well made and a blast to shoot. Seeing the spent casing eject is pure fun....

Is the "Deadman's Gun" a Schofield?

Like the look of em but if you want a break top revolver, spend the money and get a webley. Cant go no better. Fast, accurate ( they call em wobleys but id trust my life to one) and antique so you can shoot em anywhere.
