Jeweled hammer, wonder if this one came from Longhunter in TX.

I’ll take some next time I’m home in the daylight.
I think Kooz may be on to something with his Longhunter comment. The jeweled hammer on a matte blue gun seems a bit unusual, as does the 2# trigger pull. Somebody dun slicked it up but it looks unfired. The seller had traded into it and had no history.

Doesn't look like Longhunter's low profile hammer, which was a popular option when I got my Rodeo from him. I elected not to get if jeweled-just relieved enough for good clearance.

Every time a gun enthusiast gets a good deal, a cartridge belt gets its cartridges.
...or something like that?

  Here are are a couple of pictures. The hammer is jeweled and the trigger is polished. Doesn’t appeared to have been fired much if any. Should fix that soon. Ought to make a nice base gun for something. Tim |

They are great guns for the money. I picked up a tuned 38sp is a fun little gun, I wish it was a 38/40, 44sp, or 44 colt just because I like those rounds so much more. I pondered selling it but then my kids found a use for it, they really like shooting it if they are going to shoot anything. My son Will discovered it camping when he was 11 and over 2 days emptied a Folgers coffee can of ammo through it.
As far as using it for a base gun Alan Harton told me the finish is problematic and requires a lot of rework to polish out or match when done. I tossed the idea of having it rebored and adjustable sights added old school style but he advised against using it for a base gun for the project. Just passing what I have been told, they are cool guns just as they are.
