Try Powder Valley and others. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Here's one of mine, it's a Ruger.

Happy Birthday! Good looking revolver.

A really fine looking revolver! Not familiar with the brand, though. .45 Colt is one of my favorite calibers--I shoot them in Ruger Old Model Blackhawks. Handload 200gr bullets with lots of H110 powder. (Safe and spectacular)

Uberti has been around a good while and they make some nice handguns and lever action replicas.

Took the Uberti out today for some paper target shooting. The .45 Colt is a hoot . The gun performed great, no issues at all. Great trigger and more accurate than I am to be sure. If you get a chance to shoot one , please do so. A lot of fun!

My brother in law owns the same model, I am not a fan of revolvers at all. But that is one of my favorite firearms to shoot.
