I picked this one up last week thanks to Kings6 and or encore. The gun is finished beautifully and having one of David's accurized 6 shot conversion jobs the blocked action is almost as tight as a Freedom Arms gun. The revolver also has a trigger pivot bushing installed to further tighten things up. The trigger breaks like glass. The grips are black paper micarta made by a craftsman local to David. I had planned on having a similar gun built but when this became available I couldn't pass it up. I dug around in my sight box and found a white outline Bowen Rough Country rear to go with the white line front sight and installed it. Got after it and powder coated some .41 caliber hammer (215gn)hollowpoints and some MP 411-460 light(170gn) hollowpoints. The gun was throated to shoot .411 sized bullets.

I’ve always thought you had excellent taste. I’m not a stainless guy generally speaking but I like that one...

No doubt it'll be a gem. Almost grabbed it when David sent the links for me to post.
But, knew I was going to have one built.
Bet that one shoots as good as it looks. Clements' work is always top notch.
Congratulations on a great snag!!!

Base gun material is why I passed the word on instead of buying it.

Great looking Ruger, like the caliber and the coated bullets, anxious to see a range report. Thanks for sharing.
