I've had this Freedom Arms on order for 6 1/2 months and it showed up at my dealers this week. Model 97, 4.25" barrel 45 Colt, tan micarta grips and 3# action job. I've looked for a used one for years and finally decided to order this new one with the options I wanted. I plan on shooting it this afternoon.   |

DUDE!
pretty much my ideal revolver. I'd like to get one the same, but with octagon barrel, inverted crown, express sights, and mabey a round butt. But i sure wouldnt kick that one out of bed for snoring too loud, if'n you catch my drift.

Wow, that is very cool. Mine is similar, but with black stocks, I prefer your stocks. Congrats!

That is nice!! I really like the tan grips +1 - big time! Gorgeous revolver! I'm quite certain those are the first tan micarta anythings I've ever seen and they look fantastic. Eagerly looking forward to a range report and more pics with some matching custom leather, preferrably from one of our in-house artisans. ;D |

Love it. Great tastes in fine little packing pistols.

Well, after about 25 rounds down the barrel, this is what it will do. This target is 2 different loads, 5 rounds apiece at 18 yards off a rest with my bad eyes. I haven't even begun to tweak any loads yet. Also pictured is a Barranti Threepersons rig.   |

Life is too short not to get the gun you want and shoot it. Enjoy!
