Well, I was ready to buy one 4 months ago... But even though I've spend my gun money, I'm still real interested in the Pedersoli High Wall (in .38-55 in particular...)..

Anyone know if they've actually hit the beaches yet, and getting into anyones hands?

They get rid of that goofy combination of single-set-trigger and double-set-guard?
I'd take a single-set with single-guard, or double-set with double-guard, but that combo just looked wrong.

Maybe I should have just bought a Uberti, but I didn't like the reports of barrel/twist/bore dimensions..
Now I won't be buying either one for months yet.

Enquiring minds, and all...

Paul, Buy the Uberti, then send it off to Crossno and have him put either a Green Mountain or Badger barrel on it with a match chamber.  Mori (humboldt)

Paul, If you check out what you get as "standard" with a Meacham hi wall, you will find that if you had ordered a Ballard with the pistol grip, double set triggers and the neat undr lever- the Meacham would be less. Pay a deposit to Meacham, save yur monet for about a year, then you will have a very fine rifle that not shoots very well, but looks just like the one that belongs to you know who! Mori

Brent;

I've looked at several C. Sharps High Walls, and for some reason, they just don't do it for me, visually.  They lack a certain something.

My thinking is to go with a "cheaper" one to get shooting now, and (as Mori suggests), save money and get a firm idea what I want from Ballard/Meacham (and decide which one), for later.

I wouldn't feel as bad modifying a Uberti or Pedersoli to suit me, or to suit assorted "wild hairs" I might get, as I would a Meacham like a certain local shooter has. 
There are some places that taking a rasp or file to a meacham like "that one" would get you executed on the spot... not so much as a drum-head trial.
