it says traditions on the tag. i fiddled with it some it was ok. certainally a cheap knock off IMHO. just wanted to see if anyone else looked at them at bass pro. would be a fun lil .44 yo have and play with though.
this is a link to the other one beside it this ine looked more like what i would want rather than the dolled up onein the pic above. this one was beside it.

Good looking pistol. Wonder how it holds up. I like the blue steel one, that other one is kind of over the top.

I would not buy one that has a brass frame. They stretch and become unserviceable. I prefer the Uberti 1858 Remington with 8" barrel. It has a dovetailed front sight and comes with an extra tall front sight. It can be adjusted for windage by drifting the front sight and filed to zero for elevation. Mine is as accurate as most service grade .38 revolvers.

yeah both are brass, they are neat looking though. it would look nice in a shadow box with an old texas ranger or marshall badge in it.
