i used to loctite the screws but simply check them for tightness instead after cleaning the revolver.
I've had a 5 1/2" "artillery model" in 45 colt since the early '90s. It was featured in a g&a article back then and i took some pictures for the writer when he was testing it. I was also in a picture in the article shooting the cimarron uberti and liked it so much i bought it. I have put thousands of rounds through it and have replaced the springs with wolf springs and also made a plunder spring for the hand. Actually just had it out in the desert the other day. It's my usual carry gun riding in a western belt w/cross draw holster (very handy and comfortable in the jeep) when out there as i have a shot shell loaded as 1st round up in case i stumble into mr. Jake no shoulders......dang near stepped on this one a while back. I will leave'm alone most of the time but i don't hear 'em buzz anymore and i ain't so quick leapin back as i once was ....... Didn't have the shot shell loaded so the 200 gr cast at 950 fps did the trick......
