Hey Ronnie do you have a 4-5” barrel Blackhawk that can model the Bisnanna? Oh and that’s the last time I’m writing or saying that name lol ! Ps. Does that grip material come in white/ bone?

For some reason it looks a hell of a lot better on that Ruger than it does on a BFR I thought this as well, maybe the blued finish? When I heard people asking for a BFR Bisley frame this isn't what I had in mind? I was thinking a Ruger Bisley grip for a BFR. I have a Ruger version Bisley and a bradshaw, And Bison Hunter For the BFR, But everyone wants it in stainless so i havent released it yet! That is what we have been so busy doing here this summer Leadhound. Setting up the steel Machinery so we can keep the shavings separate and not have to be changing tooling and setup every day to meet the demand for the week. We are getting there buddy. Stainless and Carbon steel real soon! R |

Oh Come on Man BIZNANA Just rolls of the tongue. Hahaha. That is heat treated Micarta for use in the electrical cabinet world and i have been trying out different sources for a white colored version. This stuff is tough man! As far as modeling it on a shorter barrel, ill see what i can do. Wayne can probably do it as well because i believe one of these is going on a 4 5/8 45 colt. Ill check buddy! R |

Could it be because all of the BFR bananas I have seen are white?

For some reason it looks a hell of a lot better on that Ruger than it does on a BFR Wholeheartedly agree I dont know why but it does. I guess the BFR is just such a Meaty BEAST. I have as i stated earlier a few Bisley styles for the BFR frame but they are wider, thicker and the screw holes are larger. I guess maybe they just look gawky because of there size and Mass. But they are of course made for serious torture and BIG Smackarooney Calibers. Its funny but i actually made a couple way back in the 80s that look very similar and didnt even realise it until i started comparing them this weekend. Here is one i built in the late 80s in 45 cal which i have changed grip frames on a lot. It is made out of Titanium.  This one i made in the early 90s and have also made several grip frames for over the years. It is one of my favorite old models with a brass frame and Ejector rod housing.  |

Lemme know if you ever need a hand down there in TX, Ronnie. I’m good for brute force labor and make a decent cup of coffee.

Yes I plan to fit a biznana to an old model 357 6.5". The Hager BB5 is slated for a 4-5/8" new model 45. Once Ronnie finishes the stainless version of the BB5, I'll be putting one on a #5 BFR in 475 Linebaugh.

Can't get pics to post. imgur.com/gallery/8HsUO9jThe biznana will also go to Chigs for some buckeye burl he's holding for me and the BB5 will end up wearing some rams horns by Zane. |

Here is Michael holding them Both. The bottom one is what I imagined a BFR Bisley banana should look like. That looks really sharp Ronnie, you've been busy. Question is Ronnie, when will you introduce the banana hammock dong thong Sasquatch edition you've been working on with design input from Bradshaw? Rumor has it you and Fermin been working on a super stud hillbilly deluxe Kevlar edition speedo. 😜😂 The BFR Bisley does look really good, how does it shoot? |

The banana hammock dong thong Sasquatch edition is on hold until this Miracle growth supplement kicks in Sam. That way Me and Fermin can model it for you! Hahahahaha. Your killin me Brother. LOL Maybe we will get Doc B to help us with a Leather version. LOL It shoots very well. It definitely is much better at recoil Reduction, Pushback and muzzle flip than the super blackhawk. Points well and rolls nicely. R |

Here is Michael holding them Both. The pics are killing me! I can't wait for them to get here. The BB5 turned out just like we discussed. The modified Keith #5 boss does flow in so smoothly. It'll be awesome in a stainless version, but I think I'll follow Bradshaw and get a brass one for the #5 bfr. Who would have thought I'd like brass on stainless? |
