I agree Boge, I just wish there was a set of ivories in the bisley shape setting in the box as well! Send her to Tennessee, I'll find some ivories! Those stocks look awesome, you need to put 'em on a sixgun.

Are ya'll sure that your total collections don't exceed USFA's total production? Bob Wright

USFAs, mostly 45 colt, engraved ivory is 38 special, two flattop targets. Two have factory bisley hammers and three have aftermarket. Bought the first one new in 03 and the last one new in 13. Every now and then I see one that i wish I had picked up but I think part of that is the desire for that which I can't easily own.

The two that came from the factory with bisley hammers were, I believe, the first ones to be made. One is a rodeo and one a standard gun. When I called the factory they indicated that they were made up as samples of a proposed distributor special. Both of those hammers were blued. When I bought the other hammers right after the first run they came through case colored for something like $160 apiece.

I had to come back for another look. I want to thank everyone for sharing great six-guns that likely won't be back. However like most I'm hoping!
