Attention New Members and those new registering!
We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username.
If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.

Thanks for joining us from the administration.

it shot fine , but felt off in the hand , the grip is small compared to its bulk , three of us bought them at the same time , none of us retained ownership for more than a year ,

Guess that's why they don't make the Schofields in 357mag

no i think it has more to do with the strength of these reproductions , the other two guys both bought theirs in 38spcl , one was a short barrel the other long , the long one was really front heavy - way beyond anything i would ever get used to

I didn't notice it being front heavy or weird to hold. I just noticed the wobbly hinge and figured if it shot loose with .38spl what would it do with .45Lc. Anyway I lost the desire to own one and I'll continue my quest for the replacement of the 3 screw .41 Mag Blackhawk 45/8" that I sold to many years ago.
