Recommendation on Taylor's and Co Low Wall

These are made by Uberti. The rifle I'm looking at is in .22 LR with 30" barrel and aperture sights. Does anyone here have experience with these? Thank you.

Ballards may be weaker,

My brother has one of the Taylor & Co. High Walls and is very happy with it. I looked it over pretty closely when he bought it many years ago, and the fit and finish was pretty good. Not real high end wood, or fit along the lines of the expensive clones. But it does shoot very well, and hasn't given him any trouble over the years.

I have one in .45 Colt. Fit and finish is OK but it's not going to win any beauty awards. The case coloring would  look better had they polished the metal a little more. But the twin set triggers and trigger guard work and look classic. I'm happy in that it's value for money spent.  Cheesy

Isn't the front sight on that Low Wall mounted backwards?  I believe the clip holding the apertures should be toward the breech.

Maybe, or maybe the clip can go in from either direction, and only the clip is backwards.

I look at the picture of the beautiful rifle, and I'm tempted to order one for myself - then I think that for less money, I could get a RF block and new barrel for my CPA, and I know that the QC will be top notch.

Still, it is a strong temptation to one who loves 1885 Winchesters.
