Nice gun, but if you keep your eyes open you can find some of the turnbull/USFA C engraved guns with Persinger ivory for about the same price. I have one in 38 special and 38/40.  |

Unless I'm missing it, it's engraved with blued/CCH parts only. No tune work etc. you could send a Vaquero to BCA, get his western conversion package and have it engraved by Jere Davidson or someone Hamilton's working with for less and get more. The 357 that CMH mentions might be worth a look too. Nothing wrong with instant gratification though by buying that one!

for me that's about the perfect amount of engraving. seems like it would be cheaper to have it done by someone else though. at $3500 you'd think it would at least have some nice stocks.

That's pretty alright but I don't think you could ever get past all the space around the cylinder. ; ) |

What I mean is, I'm used to seeing you and other members custom revolvers and almost all of them have the frame window filled up with the cylinder. There's a lot of light around that cylinder. It was an attempt at humor. Obviously a poor one. |

aaah....
I'm getting less and less hung up on the oversized cylinder thing.
Maybe it's a sort of maturation.

Too much for what you are getting in my opinion. Mr. Powley is basically replicating the light weight USFA that Hamilton has in his workshop section for $2000. Hamilton is using Mr. Powley on occasion now that Dan Love has retired.

I stopped by the shop today and took some pics of the engraved blackhawkfor sale at a shop I frequent. Ill try to get them posted over the qeekend and if someones interested ill get you in touch with the shop and would be glad to get any detailed pics you might want. Craig |
