I have been fortunate on several occasions to be offered the opportunity to buy back a gun I once used to own. Through a rather convoluted manner, this gun came up in a conversation and based on a brief description it triggered a memory so I asked if it had a few other features and sure enough, it is one I sold to the current owner several years ago. I remember selling it because 265 grain hard cast loads from Buffalo Bore were too long for the rechambered 357 cylinder. What a dummy I was! Long story short it is another of John's conversions to 41 mag and it has a shortened locking base pin, Bowen sight, crescent ejector rod head, Clements bisley spurred hammer and some of the most striking ivory grips fit to the XR-3 grip frame I have ever owned. Thanks to the gentleman I sold it to generosity, it now is back here in Oregon. Standard 41 mag loads or more than likely, 41 Special loads will be its diet in the future.
Now based on my "One In- One Out" plan I have to look at what else is in the safe with a pruning eye
