that would be interesting... 25 ACP out of a revolver is very similar to the 22 LR... a little slower ( sub sonic ) but bullet is heavier, so it seems to have more whack on my steel plates than a 22 LR... hardest part about doing the 25 ACP, is coming up with the .251 barrel... in my case it was with a barrel liner... & I did a 16.5" Contender barrel at the same time

that's not a bad price... I ended up using hammer forged barrel liners

i like that. the single six/seven would fit my hands better but i can assure you i would not kick that beauty out of my gun safe.

Funny, I had a "single" & because I couldn't find a .251 barrel at the time, I used that to build a 257 special... then later when I was wanting to do a 25 ACP, I got an incredible deal on that stainless Blackhawk ( about half what "singles" were selling for at the time ) & I ended up with the smaller cartridge going into the bigger gun...

funny how things turn out. i have looked at the 257 special and the jackrabbit. would like to build something in 25 cal. someday. but not right now i traded all my extra money for custody of my 1 1/2 year old grandson. it was a good trade. i have enuf pistols and rifles for all of us to have alot of fun for many years to come but someday i will be adding something in 25 cal.

scotth... that is actually an awesome trade... MRS & I are not able to have kids... neither is her sister... we live on my wife's family Century Farm, & no kids to leave it to... I'd trade every gun I have for the chance to raise a child or grandchild on the farm
