I've got about 20 inches of octagonal 44 cal barrel stock that needs to be fit to a few guns with upgraded front sights. Thinking an ovate barrel on this stainless Clements line-bored 41 mag bisley. Actively working on a long range (read, rifle caliber) pistol rig. Gotta put these Wells grip frames to good use. Got a TLA and Blackhawk to drop off with Harton for some tweaking and a 10mm cylinder on the Ruger. Sentimental project: 6 shot 45 Colt long cylinder full build by Bowen or Forkin, S&W barrel, Stroh front sight, Wells brass grip frame with some French walnut grips. Gong to have my first custom rifle work done (just some action tuning). Longslide 1911 in 10mm with rail and RMR to wear CT grips and a light. Aaaaand need to sell a bunch of guns. OK, this might take more than a year. Hahahaha! Yep. Unless you drag some of that stuff down here and let me get to pimpin it!

I've still never owned a 1911, so I need to cross that one off. I'm very interested in that new Dan Wesson 1911 hybrid thingy, being a huge CZ 75 fan. I will definitely be acquiring a few more single actions, very interested in a 357 BFR. Time will tell.

Nothing really special but I plan on picking up a 327 federal. Will most likely be a 4”SP101. Also would like to pick up a 6-8” barreled 357 magnum although I haven’t figured out whether to go SA or DA.

If you like both problem solved!

Todd, what tweaks do you plan on having done on the TLA? Just curious if you don’t mind me asking.

Still functions fine and would be safe to shoot, but the hat half cock the chamber doesn't perfectly line up with the loading gate like the other. Shouldn't be a big deal, and I've been looking for an excuse to meet Alan.

1) 4” model 29-2 2) Ruger no 1 45-70 3) drive to Andy Horvaths and see if he’ll tune up my 5.5” 44 special Bisley 4) get the B/C gap properly tightened on a much shot SBH 44 magnum That came back from the mother ship after a rebuild at .012” 😬
More important shoot more! Going from farming to a “professional job” in a NW Ohio suburb really has put a hamper on my sixgunning over the last 8 years since college
