Words can't describe how gorgeous it is,, and in 45 Colt,,,, drive a stake through my heart why don't you. I know it was a long time big money, one of a kind,, but that sucker would enjoy digesting a ton of lead with me for sure! I do hope it gets used for more than a conversation piece, it is deserving!
You sir have one elite SA!

Since it is off to Turnbull next, is it going to be blued or CCH?

For those who are concerned it might be a safe queen, I already have 2k .45 slugs set aside for when it comes home!
As for the finishing, the frame will be CCH with remaining parts carbona blued, small parts nitre blue. I'm incredibly excited to see it in final form and head out to the rifle range.

I seldom see engraving as tasteful as that. What a nice piece that’s going to be.
