The Bisley grip mod seems very intriguing so I decided to send my 480 in for the treatment, while it's there I'll have them properly index the barrel as well. Very excited and anxious to see how it turns out.

What kind of gun are we talking about here?

Lipsey's 5 shot Blackhawk. It's incredibly accurate for a factory gun but desperately needs new grips, and the barrel over timed by a good bit. My rear sight is maxed out on windage for a 50 yd zero.

My rear sight is maxed out on windage for a 50 yd zero. ***** This is all very vague. Jack Huntington will sort it out, but we are left wondering what you’re talking about. I take it by “over timed” you mean the front sight appears at 11 o’clock when you aim. As in ATDC----After Top Dead Center. You did not specify whether your rear sight is cranked left, or right.

Mr. Bradshaw, you are correct. The front sight was well past TDC. I had the rear sight maxed out to one side and it still wasn't completely on at 50 yards.

I have also decided to do this with my 480, and while its there i will be having a bowen front sight installed. Also will have him freespin it.

Just got my 480 in the mail, the grips are beautiful and everything else I asked for is spot on. Can't wait to shoot it.

Are pics a possibility?
I'd like to send mine in for a couple items... shorter barrel, trigger work, new front sight...

Here's a teaser, I still need to shape a new front sight blade and put the Bowen rear back on.  |

Thanks for the kind words gentlemen. I'm kicking myself for not sending it in sooner, the added knuckle relief and more vertical grip profile make the gun feel entirely different. Not to mention his time and price quotes were spot on.

Not to mention his time and price quotes were spot on. Beautiful work! I decided to have my next project done by JRH! Is there a way to contact Jack beside phone? Hate taking guys away from their work ,for exploratory questions. |
