Nice black powder gun for starting out with black powder shooting. Everything is decent and, in my opinion, this version is better than the option from Uberti.

Pietta 1858 New Army Black Powder Revolver .44 8" - Black
Faithful reproduction of a percussion-cap revolver, first manufactured by the American company Remington. The 1858 New Model Army Steel is a 6-shot black powder revolver, loaded from the muzzle. The 1858 design was the world’s first to incorporate a closed frame, providing enhanced durability and reliability. Constructed from black oxidized steel, it features an 8-inch forged barrel chambered in .44 caliber.
Walnut wood scales, brass trigger guard
Featuring grip scales crafted from natural walnut wood, the revolver boasts a timeless, classic look. The use of brass for the trigger guard offers an attractive contrast to the black oxidized frame, enhancing its overall aesthetic appeal.
Mechanical sighting devices
Featuring fixed mechanical sighting devices, the revolver utilizes a traditional front sight paired with a rear groove notch for aiming.
Single Action trigger system and built-in loading lever
The trigger system functions in Single Action mode, requiring the hammer to be manually cocked for every shot. The cocking system offers two stages: half-cock, suitable for positioning percussion caps onto the nipples, and full-cock, which prepares the firearm for discharge. A hinged lever-style rammer is mounted beneath the barrel, specifically engineered to securely seat lead balls into the cylinder chambers.

Militaria.pl is a premium dealer of Pietta.
F.lli Pietta is an Italian manufacturer from Brescia, founded in 1963 by Giuseppe Pietta, which has combined tradition with precision craftsmanship from the very beginning. In 1966, the first shotguns were produced, and by 1974, the company had gained international recognition by fulfilling a contract for 10 000 replicas of revolvers such as the 1851 Navy, Colt Army, Remington, Paterson, and Le Mat. This success cemented Pietta's position as a specialist in faithful reconstructions of 19th-century weapons. The brand was one of the first to introduce the "100% made in Italy" label, emphasizing the quality of its products. Today, run by the founder's sons, Alessandro and Alberto, it is one of the most respected manufacturers of historical replicas, chosen by collectors, reenactors, and shooting enthusiasts around the world.

In my opinion, Pietta surpasses Uberti. Revolvers of this brand are made of harder steel, are better priced, and even the depth of the barrel grooves is greater.

This is probably the best model for someone starting their adventure with black powder guns. Very easy to use, basically maintenance-free. I highly recommend it.

A piece of good equipment. Very high level of craftsmanship. Easy to load, does not jam. Simple to use. Probably one of the most popular models on our market.

New production Pietta revolvers are of a totally different quality than those described by some online reviewers a few years ago. High-quality components made of solid materials form a perfectly fitted whole. I saw no flaws. I recommend.

Super craftsmanship and fitting of the parts. I can't wait for the first shooting.

Although I haven't had a chance to shoot it yet, as far as quality and appearance go, it's very good. Pietta is not as bad as people make it out to be, they've recently greatly improved in quality. Also worth mentioning the fast shipping and excellent service.

Good quality for a reasonable price, works flawlessly, everything fits well, a lot of fun shooting, I think it is in no way inferior to Uberti.
