Got a great deal on a Cimmaron Uberti SAA today in .32-20 caliber. I figured I wanted it as I've got other SAA's in .45 Colt, and .38 Special. This one is the only Uberti, as the others are AWA and a Great Western from the 1950's.
Anyone had any experience with the Cimmarons in .32-20 yet? Mine is a 7 1/2" barrel on the early blackpowder style frame.

Not sure I should comment since the only 32-20 single action I've ever fired was an original 7.5" nickeled Colt SAA. Shot really nice too. No recoil to speak of, recoil was nil.

Wish it was mine ....

I know lots of folks that swear by the Cimarron Ubertis. I don't own one, but, have shot quite a few and find nothing that would dissuade me from buying one if I found one in a configuration that I wanted. Depending on your intended use, I think you'll be very happy with it. If you're thinking of shooting competitively, I can think of several upgrades I'd recommend to improve it's reliability.

The only .32WCF revolver I owned was an original circa 1908 Colt SA. It was a fun gun to shoot and could be loaded safely to a level above the anemic factory fodder. It went away in a trade that I probably shouldn't have made, but it was fair enough at the time.

I would dearly love to have a 4 3/4" Uberti to make up for it's loss, and will eventually end up with one. They come highly recommended.

My initial attraction was to the caliber, as I really like the .32-20, but my other two are both 4 3/4", which I also love! Not sure I'd have ordered one with a 7 1/2" barrel, but at the price I couldn't pass on it.
Not planning on competitive shooting, but I wouldn't mind doing some work on the action to slick it up. It's good, but the one I traded had been slicked up, and it was great!
Thanks for the info!-Vall
