You want a revolver for just display. There are several members who notice the second generation Colt Blackpowder revolvers.

Personaly I do think that is a good choice. Prices are still good. You can find very nice examples out there. I do like the Colt Navy model 1851.
I do love the elegance of it.

The name Colt is on the revolver instead of Uberti. I do see rather Colt dan Uberti. Even Uberti make some good guns. Quality of Uberti is in some guns questianeble.
Look for example to the forcingcone of a Uberti made Schofield in .45 colt, and you know what I mean.

But, we could give you only advice. It is complete up to you what you like.

In pictures several of my revolvers. Exept the Original Colt US stampt Navy. Wish that was mine to.
The best replica is the Centaure Belgian made Colt model 1860.
