This caught my eye out front.. Little Birdshead Single 7. Always liked the look of the Birdshead but they just never felt good in my hand. Handled this one and I might like it. Have to buy to find out. Needs a different front sight and maybe some work on that rear sight groove. Bet Rob Leahy can make me a Sourdough Pancake for it.  |

I’m thinking Two Dogs will have a dovetail sight for it soon!

Have the .32 H&R version of that gun and it shoots right to the sights...
That said, I have started a conversation with Jack Huntington about adding a S&W rear sight and conversion to .38 Super...
We shall see...

Sounds very similar to what I'm anticipating back from David Clements! We tracked down a Bisley hammer he will fit as well. Very much looking forward to seeing how these turn out... |

The basic gun is solid it is just "Ruff as a Corn Cob" a little TLC and it will be what it should be...A Fine Piece!

AxeHandle was nice enough to let me get me hands on this sweet little Single Seven and put a cylinder down range. I’ve been pretty heavy on the Bisley grip frames lately...but I could see on of thesee in my future.
