Schofield
Does anyone know the value of a Schofield in 44 russian, nickelfinish and with russian text on the barrel? It doese't need to be an exact value I just want to know if it's worth saving or if it's something for the scrapyard

I am in the market (this suction site) for a Schofield. There are some significant differences between the S$W (new) and the Uberti and Navy Arms. Should I save my $ and get the S&W or will the less expensive models do. It will be for occasional target shooting only, no SASS activities.Thanks in advance,Gus 0 -
gusiris,Go with the Uberti. They are fine guns and accurate for what sights are present. While the S&W is a continuation of the original (with changes), the Navy Arms and Uberti are great for the non-perfectionist, MUCH less expensive and can take .45 Colt ammo (easier to get) and also .45 S&W or .45 Russian. I've shot one at a SASS meeting and like them better than my Ruger Vacaro for fit in my hands. Of course everyone is different, so it is a good idea to attend a local SASS competition and talk with the shooters. At my club, everyone is happy to let a new person try out their equipment - it may mean a new shooter gets hooked! 0 -
Luger is correct. One additional factor is that Uberti's version is larger, boxier than S&W's. 0 -

Don't have a Schofield but got a Uberti 1873 clone, .45 Colt, 4 3/4", and in comparing it with my 2nd generation .44 Special Colt I may like the Uberti better. IMHO. 0 -
The Navy Arms gun is by far the better value and should serve your purposes just fine.
