RECENTLY ACQUIRED ONE OF MY LAST "GRAIL" GUNS, A BOWEN REDHAWK/ANACONDA IN 45 COLT, THIS ONE WAS A RECHAMBER FROM 44 MAG TO 45 COLT AND IS IN LIKE NEW CONDITION. GUN CAME WITH A NICE SET OF RUGER FACTORY GRIPS PLUS A MILT SPARKS SHARK HIDE HOLSTER. I QUICKLY dressed 'er up WITH SAMBAR STAG GRIPS. HOPE TO SHOOT IT TOMORROW WITH SOME 325gr SLAMMER HS-6 LOADS AND MY EVERYDAY RUGER LOAD USING 250gr PC'ed RNFP BULLETS AT 1,244fps. HAVE 2 GRAIL GUNS ON MY BUCKET LIST, 1 IS A K FRAME 218 BEE (CURRENTLY IN THE HANDS OF JRH) AND THE OTHER IS A CUSTOM 45 COLT RUGER BISLEY WITH A S&W BARREL.

Congrats! Was the seller the original owner? Now that I see those stags, I might have owned that one.
I just sent Hamilton an 8” Anaconda barrel to be rebored for a 6” one.

bushog: THE SELLER WAS THE ORIGINAL OWNER (THE GUN ALSO CAME WITH THE BOWEN PAPERWORK, WHICH SHOWS THE SELLER AS THE ONE WHO COMMISSIONED THE WORK).

JUST CHECKED ON THE HOLSTER ON THE MILT SPARKS WEBSITE, A NEW ONE IN SHARK COSTS $365.00. MORE GOOD NEWS IS THAT MY 5 SHOT BOWEN BEAST 45 COLT REDHAWK ALSO FITS IN THIS HOLSTER BUT THE HOLSTER IS FOR PANT BELT WEAR ONLY AND WILL NOT ACCOMODATE WIDER GUN BELTS.
THIS FREES UP 6" AND 4" ANACONDA BARRELS IN MY PARTS INVENTORY FOR SALE.

That is beautiful and I’m sure that one won’t be traded/sold off any time soon.

If it's the one that went across recently, my bidding finger got real twitchy. Congratulations. I'm glad you got it. Good looking revolver.
