Gorgeous! The grips and gripframe look like they just grew onto the rest of the revolver! Wonderful work and I appreciate you taking the time to share it all with us as you went along. Tim

Mr. Fermin, thanks for the walk through of all you, and Mr. Harton have done to make this outstanding specimen of a SA! The level of attention to detail does not go unseen, nor unappreciated! Excuse me if I over looked this, but what did the finished weight come in at? Again a real beauty! I will weigh it when it shows up at my shop.

I musta missed it. Is that a step in the frame forward of the trigger guard? Is it on both sides? Did you move the serial number? Yes to all 3 questions. Remember, to do such, you need the involvement of a manufacture licencee.

I am more of a traditionalist in what I like in a sixgun, but I definitely admire the work done and think it is very unique piece. I do love the traditional aspects of that gun: high polished bluing, ivories, octagon barrel and the fluted cylinder. And that accuracy… Wow !

That turned out great Fermin! Jury still out on the hammer and I shared this with David a month or so ago when we talked but no doubt it shows why you are my custom revolver hero!

Fermin everyone involved in working on this project did an excellent job. That is a beautiful pistol and some innovative ideas incorporated into it.

Yo! Fermin, How long is that cylinder? 308 or 311 barrel? Just measured the cylinder on my Reeder .308 barreled 327/32-20 and got 1 13/16 inches. I've easily loaded 110 JHPs I loaded for a TC Contender in the Reeder gun. Mine shot those old nasty Sledgehammers pretty good too.

Stan, the cylinders are long enough to chamber a 32-20 with a Sledgehammer seated in the crimp groove. Your guns are built on the full size Blackhawks. This one is the smaller framed OM. I don't use .308" barrels on my 32s.
