[QUOTE="diggler1833, post: 3657405, member: 48072"] I have both a Colt SAA (Ca. 2007 custom shop order) and S&W Schofield (Ca. 2000 performance shop), as well as Uberti Clones of each for shooting. I really like both. The biggest problem is that the S&W reintroduction wasn't as close to the original as the Uberti clones...go figure that adding a transfer bar to a 125 year old (at the time of reintroduction) design would throw off the purists. The Colts are easier for most people to shoot, especially if someone is loading black powder loads to the levels that were originally issued...even with the .45 Sch being a less potent round. Load the mouse fart rounds that many do for matches and the point is moot. However, I'm still a sucker for the lines of the Schofield. [/QUOTE]
