      Buying .36 Calibre Percussion Revolvers in Australia

      Magnum Sports lists 6 Pietta .36 calibre percussion revolvers, and none are available to order today. Models include the 1851 Navy Yank, 1851 Confederate, 1861 Navy and 1858 Remington, including Target versions. These are black-powder cap-and-ball replicas, used in Australia for black-powder pistol and Western Action events.

      Percussion revolvers are handguns in Category H. You need a current NSW firearms licence in the right category plus a Permit to Acquire (PTA) for each firearm. Since 1 July 2026 a PTA is only issued once the applicant shows they meet the safe-storage requirements, and new and renewed licences run for a maximum of two years. A probationary Category H holder is limited to .22 rimfire and air pistols for the first 6 months. Interstate buyers can order and the revolver is transferred dealer to dealer to their nominated licensed dealer, with $30 handgun freight.

      Prices run from $724 for the 1851 Confederate to $964 for the 1858 Remington Target in steel and $1,299 for the stainless Target model.
