This sixgun has been brewing in my mind for three years. It isn't complete yet, waiting on a Clements double gold bar front site and a little more gripframe fitting. Have to decide if I want to bead blast it or not. Didn't want to take it too far so that it could be put back to standard if necessary. Super Blackhawk 5 1/2" stainless. Bisley gripframe courtesey of Kings6, Macassar Ebony grips by Cary at CLC, Bowen Rough Country rear site, Belt Mountain locking base pin blue, Power Custom free spin pawl, Wolf #17101 spring kit 40 oz trigger & 19 Lb hammer springs, tweaked some. The lock-up is as tight as a vault and the timing is near perfect. The trigger breaks at 2.5 lbs. This was all made possible by the education and inspriation gained on this web site from looking at a lot of the members fine customs.    |

Those are great looking stocks. The front sight will change the looks of that sixgun alot and should look great. Hard to beat a short barreled bisley in 44 magnum

Great outcome cutch! I love the Macassar ebony Cary uses. Your looks as good on the SS as the ones he did for me on brass.

Looks like the grips sure found a good home. Beautiful gun, but I have a question. What is that monster holding the gun up?  ?? |

Thanks for the compliments. I am pretty happy with the way it is turning out. Now here is the spooky part...If you look at the left grip panel the grain pattern is a very close approximation of a map of Idaho!!!!  Spooky and her sistre Maggi { 41 mag acusport} went to the range today. It looks like the 44 will shoot every bit as good as the 41 which is saying a lot as the acusport is by far the most accurate handgun I own ... and is better than one or two of my rifles ! ;D ;D |
