I'd want something people would remember forever, maybe not a good memory but who could forget the: Webley–Fosbery Automatic Revolver as seen in Zardoz used by Sean Connery's character, Zed. I bet Sean wishes he could forget.

Here you go flyfisher, 3" 44 special with Keith Brown walnut grips and Barranti Sloan holster.

I'd go with a blue .480 on the 5 1/2 flattop. Ivory Micarta...#5 base pin. Custom front sight and Bowen rear sight. I think I gotta have one!

How about a Colt Richards Type I 1860 conversion in 44 or maybe even 41 special.. That's where my mind is wandering to this morning. 5 1/2", slightly modified sights for clear sight picture without altering the basic aesthetics of the gun. (think 2nd gen SAA sights as an example. Better sight pic than 1st gen, but still looks right) CCH, Charcoal blue with fire blue screws and silver plated back strap. I like it! Gary Barnes does a .36 Navy conversion to .41Colt. I wonder if a .41Spl wouldn't also work? I talked to Gary a while back about maybe doing one of his 41 Colt conversion on a Navy. Got distracted by something else, so it didn't come to be. As I understand it the 41 Colt uses a .386 bullet and cases can be made from .38 Special brass. Not sure if 41 Colt could be done in a 6 shot, but seeing how the original 1860's and '51's share the same frame size , and we know the 44 Colt fits, seems like 41 Special would likely work too. If not, I'm sure a 5 shot would work similar to the 5 shot 45 Colt conversions from Kirst & R&D. ADDED: looks like 41 Special and 44 Colt both measure .492 at the rim, so it seems to me that it would at least fit in the '60 size cylinder as a 6 shot.
