Yesterday was my birthday so I bought myself a present today. Picked up an Uberti El Patron Cowboy Mounted Shooting SAA. It is a beautiful piece and incredibly smooth.
The 4" barrel tempts me to make it a carry piece if I ever get my CCP. Might be a bit bulky, and tactical reloads will be out of the question.
Anyway, compared to the usual Uberti product which aren't bad at all, this piece is amazingly smooth and the lowered hammer makes cocking easy.
I'll never do a Cowboy Mounted Shooting match (I don't trust horses - no brakes or steering wheel) but the appeal of having a revolver that says I am the Patron was irresistable. At my last job the guys working for me called me Jeffe but Patron is a promotion.
