I'm one of those guys who hates to admit it but I really like having a routine. Another thing I don't like admitting and my Gal probably likes it even less is getting up in the morning, getting a cup of coffee and browsing guns on the interweb... A couple weeks ago I had one of those "spit the coffee on the screen" moments when I hit the "Bowen" saved search and one came up. I hit the "buy it now" and now Bowen Classic Arms Best-Quality revolver No. 011 is with several of it's equals. The gun is chambered in .500 Magnum (what the .500 Linebaugh was called at one time by some) and features all that would be expected from the best of the best (IMO). Hamilton himself even crafted the black micarta grips on several of these guns. Here is a link to an old BCA catalog describing the Best Quality builds. You can tell by the pricing it has been quite a while since these were offered. www.bowenclassicarms.com/catalog/special_orders.htmlBowen Best Quality #011

VERY NICE! I AM UNFAMILIAR WITH THE "BEST QUALITY" #'ed BOWENS, WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ONE OF THOSE AND SAY A STANDARD BOWEN NIMROD?
