Hmm.
Opportunity knocks. Open a gun shop selling black powder arms. Remington 1858 New Army with say a couple of extra cylinders could be a very formidable weapon. Pietta has it in a "police" model with a short barrel. Fun, Fun, Fun in ChitCargo.

I have thought the exact same thing recently. I have looked into it, and they are very nice weapons, and moderately priced (~$200, plus $60 per additional cylinder). And a .44 caliber bullet is quite formidable, whether propelled by black powder or modern propellents. Worked for a lot of guys in the West back in the day... And you don't get on anyone's list, since these are not considered worthy of background checks, etc. Quite a perk in my book...
