All the parts finally came back together to do this project and the parts should all get shipped off this next week. Your basic N frame model 28 in 357 mag but the grips are old ivory magnas and the short barrel has been rebored to 41 so when all the parts are tossed into the witches brew the end result should be a high polish 4" tapered barreled 41 Special that will have spent a year at Brian Powley's getting engraved then reblued before making the trip home to Oregon. I decided to use this rather than the Model 58 for the engraving since this one needs to be refinished as part of the process and the 58 is already in finished form. only the second DA gun in the safe at present.

That's going to be great! Who rebored the 4" barrel for you? I have some barrels I'd like to have punched out but don't want to send a whole project out.

If I remember correctly the folks at Clearwater did it before Cliff LaBounty passed away. I had it for quite awhile before I sold it to another forum member. He recently offered it back up so I bought it back.
