Uberti 1851 Colt Revolver

[mdivancic]

Does anyone know why the Uberti 1851 Colt Revolver is NOT on the approved arms list? I'm just wondering what disqualifies it?

[John Holland]

That's easy....it's not disqualified.....no one ever submitted it for production approval ! ! !

You can get an individual approval from the Small arms Committee for said arm.

The Small Arms Committee is working on a program to correct those omissions. But, patience is requested.

Thanks John! I was wondering how that worked. What do I do about regional shoots?

[John Holland]

There are Small Arms Inspectors in nearly every Region of the N-SSA. They are listed in the "Information"section off the N-SSA's main page. The Small Arms Committee Inspectors in the Carolina Region are Kenneth Orr, and Lee Hoffecker. They can inspect your revolver on a regional level and issue you a temporary approval. They then send me the inspection sheet which I review and if all is in order I will issue you the permanent Small Arms Individual Approval Card.

All small arms inspections are expected to be done at the regional level. The SAC inspections at the Nationals are a courtesy only, for those who may have had complications, or have recently acquired an arm that requires a SAC card.

Mike,
I will be at the Carolina home comming Skirmish at Statesville, Nov. 6-8 and will be glad to look at you Colt 1851. However, if it has a brass frame it may not meet certification requirements. I will have to check and let you know.

Lee:

It's the steel frame version. I'll look you up in November. Thanks!

[John Holland]

I'll see to it that Lee gets all the necessary information to work with.

And, thank you Lee, for stepping up to take care of Mike and the Carolina Region.
