Wasn't the 1911 originally designed like that? Starting with a .45 cartridge to get the grip screws out?

They were a product of the "space" mentality of the '60's.

If you were to buy a Schofield.

Would it be an absolute travesty to get one in .38spl instead of .45lc?

I don't know why but it just sounds wrong. We have the Colt SA in just about anything the same with the 1911. But a Schofield .357? Hell if I ever saw one I would most likley buy the damn thing.

Yeah, I was surprised to find that the only two repro manufacturers decided on .38spl in stead of. .357/.38 setup.

I'd definitely go .45 if it were cheaper.

I'm going to have to get my bow out and draw it few times. I'll be OK as soon as I can get my brain untangled.
