Hand included a $45 value. This Kirst 2-Step Hand is specifically designed to improve the lock up of both percussion revolvers & conversions with Kirst Konverters. It allows the 1860, 1851 & 1861 to function smoothly and more dependably than the factory-made hand. In addition, the hand spring is stronger and less apt to fail, which is common with the factory hands. This product will also successfully solve problems with advancing and locking up the cylinder, which are inherit to all 1860 Army revolvers made after 2015. Designed by Walt Kirst, this is a must have for every shooter!
NOTE: May require special fitting by a gunsmith. Sometimes they will fit right out of the box but because the revolvers over the different years may vary they may not always fit correctly out of the box. New conversion cylinders by Kirst often need slight modifications to fit properly. Many gun owners can do the work themselves while others may require the help of a gunsmith.
This is for Pietta models only .45 Schofield /.45 Long Colt ammo, plus it is SASS legal for Cowboy Action Shooting matches. It will accommodate the .45 Long Colt cartridge, if the bullet is seated slightly deeper. The ammo must be loaded with lead bullets and a low-pressure, powder charge equivalent to black powder loads. (The SAAMI specification for overall length, for the .45 Colt, is 1.600 inch. The longest OAL that 1860 Pietta cylinder will accept is 1.58 inch and the 1860 Uberti cylinder is 1.53 inch. Some modern Cowboy Action Shooting ammunition may fit.) All Kirst Konverters carry a lifetime "No B.S." warranty, plus they are made with pride in the good, old U.S.A. The 1860 Army Kirst Cartridge Konverter™ also works in the 1851 .44 Caliber Colt Navy and the Dance Brothers revolver made by Pietta.
