ABSTRACT:
A conversion cylinder assembly is provided for converting a 44 cal. cap and ball revolver to use with 45 Long Colt ammunition. To maintain authentic appearance and function, the conversion cylinder chambers up to six 45 Long Colt cartridges. To provide clearance for the cartridge rims, each of the chambers is angled slightly relative to the centerline of the cylinder and centerline of the barrel. This provides spacing for the ends of the cartridges while keeping the projectiles aligned with the barrel at the forward end of the cylinder.
