I believe that firing a revolving rifle of that type involves care where the supporting hand is placed and not near the cylinder.
Bought a Pietta 1858 Army .44 cap & ball, added a .45Colt cylinder w/loadng gate, dremeled out metal to allow adding or removing cartridges, added a Cole style ejector and its now a terrific .45 with great, easy trigger pull. All expensive but will shoot right up there with my Vaquero and Blackhawk of the same caliber.
