Saw an ad that has me thinkin'...

Looking at an on-line ad yesterday I saw a black-powder hand-gun for sale. I think it was a Colt Army .45 S/A six-shooter.
No FFL needed, no surprise there.
On the other side of the same page is another ad. This one is for a conversion drop-in cylinder to transform your Colt Army .45 so it fires .45 colt (cowboy loads). No FFL needed for this either.
This can all be purchased by mail or over the internet
The ability to just "drop-in", and change a black-powder weapon into something that fires a modern cartridge?

yep, I referenced this situation in another thread here just the other day.. Kinda cool, kinda strange.

Thinking about ordering a new setup from Midway.
