https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A._Uberti,_Srl.Uberti firearms have been featured in numerous Western movies thanks to their authentic looks. Italian filmmaker Sergio Leone visited the Uberti factory in the 1960s to procure replica Civil War and Old West revolvers for use in all his Western films including The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and Once Upon a Time in the West.[8] Other movie credits include Uberti's Colt Walker featured in John Wayne's 1969 True Grit, as well as the same model in Clint Eastwood's The Outlaw Josey Wales (1979). All firearms in the 1990 Western Dances with Wolves starring Kevin Costner were Uberti's, while a number of Uberti rifles and pistols have also been used in the 1993 Movie Tombstone featuring Val Kilmer and Kurt Russell.

This picture shows how the brass will not fit into the backside of the Uberti cylinder while the brass easily goes all the way in the Ruger.JEBar wrote:my major knock on Uberti comes from it being made overseas .... given a high quality made in the USA alternative is available, we choose to spend our money on an American made Henry
