My wife had never seen Pale Rider w/Clint Eastwood, so we watched it a couple of weekends ago. Everytime I watch it, I look up what gun he uses, caliber, etc. This time I decided to price them, and depending on the dealer, sales, you can get one for $350-500. Since I already have some .45 Long Colt on hand, I also bought a conversion cylinder for another $250.

Having trouble locating components for the cap and ball experience. I was able to get powder, lube, and wads quickly. Found a little store in Iowa that has caps, butt won't ship. Luckily, I have a LEO buddy that works the next county over, and he's picking them up today. Now - I just need projectiles! Still on the lookout for .454 lead round balls.

I know I could mould my own projectiles, but I haven't decided if I'm that into yet. Time will tell.

This model has the Antique finish. They also come in a traditional blued finish, and in stainless steel.
