COWBOY ACTION

Is the 44 cap&ball revolver carbine legal for cowboy action? If so is it any good. I am interested in going black powder all the way except for the coach gun. Also what C&B revolver hand gun works best?

As far as the available guns go, all of the Ubertis are great guns of great quality and strength. I don't know much about the Pietta C&B revolvers but the ones I've seen don't look to be as good as the Ubertis. The Ruger Old Army C&B revolver is good. I love my .36 caliber Uberti 1851 Colt Navy and my .44 caliber Uberti 1860 Colt Army C&B revolvers, although I myself wouldn't use them for CAS. I use to own an Uberti 1858 Remington Army .44 C&B revolver and while I find the Colts to be a little more elegant looking and easier handling, the Remington was certainly stonger due to it's solid frame design.
