I owned a Mitchel Army Model made by Uberti and loved it. It had the feel of a Colt grip, an excellent trigger and came with a spare 45 ACP cylinder. Mine had a brass frame and a reddish wood grip that set it off nicely.

The Uberti had the advantage that I could load cut-down .410 shells in it for shot loads. Trimmed to cylinder length, they held 1/3 ounce of #9 shot and were both fun and practical. The shotshell rims would not fit into my Blackhawk.
