Making progress at Hartons shop. Thought you guys might want to see what the cylinders look like with the heat treat/tempering process along with the Clements light weight Bisley hammer we are going to use.... |

I can't decide if I like those hammers or not....
Will be good to see one on a finished gun.
Is it going to be colored?

Cylinders fitted to the frame window. Note the very short cylinder boss for the .400" nose Sledgehammer. You are also looking at the beginning of a 7.5" tapered octagon barrel. The cross pin hole has been welded. Thanks to Alan Harton for keeping us all in the loop!! |

Making progress! Here are some shots from Harton. I really like the way the tapered 7.5" octagon barrel looks so balanced with the longer Bisley grip frame!! 4718 |

Exceptional. Reminds me of the Remington cap and ball revolvers.

When finished that is going to be about the finest sixgun ever, I'm amazed how you & Alan have built this little beauty so perfectly, although having one of Alan's guns I shouldn't be surprised. Can't wait to see the finished product!

There are quite a few other grip frame options. Most of the guys here will gladly swap for your Bisley parts, including ME!  Oh, and thanks for the nice words! |
