Nothing fancy but nice grips, upgraded parts and tuned by Forkin.

I missed the Forkin part…..

Sure wish Ruger hadn’t put those rollmarks on the cylinders…..

Nice but you left out “rare” in the title! Seriously though that is a nice one with some very nice touches

Chuck the cylinder in a lathe and sand awaaaaaay...

I have done that very thing. In fact I have a little tool made to hold the cylinder in a drill press so a guy can do just that.

It seems that that is a great price considering that there is a Bisley for sale on the Rugerforum for $1800 + shipping that has had no work done to it at all . I didn't realize these had gotten so expensive .

I'm surprised it's still there.

Notice it hasn't sold and has been there for quite a while.

That being said they have been running way to close to the century mark for my taste

30 dollar base pin, 120 dollar rear sight if you can find one, 300 dollar grips, ? (200?) dollar Forkin tune (if you can get one), puts the gun at 840 without the time required. Certainly "tune" definition would be nice. If it's just the sear, meh. If it's polish everything inside that's different.
