Base Gun is an early 70s Ruger BH w/ 7.5" barrel in 45 Colt.
Currently, this old girl suffered a broken hammer while dry firing some 20 years ago. It has come up in conversations frequently but I or the owner haven't litterally had an OM Hammer fall outta the sky and hit us so it just been hidden in a sock in the top dresser drawer all this time.
I discovered while surfing that Ron Powers was making an OM Registered BH standard and Bisley Hammer save signing a release waiver. So I call so n so up and tell him the good news. Bring it up for the holidays and we'll get her fixed up. Well now, so and so wants to install a SBH grip frame. I try and talk him into a bisley frame but he wants a SBH cause it is longer for his big hands. So off to the auction sites I go to find an OM SBH grip frame.
I have the following ?s:
1. From reading up on the SBH GF, it has a wider trigger. Will an OM BH trigger work or will I need to also secure a SBH trigger?
2. Besides normal grip frame fitting, can a NM SBH grip frame be used with OM lock work or would major invasive surgery be required/not practical?
Thanks in advance gentleman.
