This is my 10mm Single Six, the Five and Dime. It's still a work in progress. Mr Peterson nailed it with the stag grips. I spoke with him briefly about the revolver, told him my glove size, and sent some photos of my hands holding common objects as reference for scale. The donor gun has the small and non standard grip frame that was unique to the Mini Vaquero. These grip stocks fill the hand making a nice handling and cool looking little wheelgun. They have that great no-nonsense Western look. I'm grateful. Thanks for the excellent stocks Mr Peterson!     |

Fantastic looking revolver. Very cool.
Edit: Totally missed it was a Single-Six. Even cooler! Was the cylinder frame window opened up?

Dang that looks good! I always wondered what a front sight like that would look like, gonna leave it be or contour it? I kinda like it the way it is.

Thanks The front sight works fine like it is, but it'll be getting some features and contours before it's done. I got it mostly regulated for a load that I've been running, and haven't messed with it yet. |

Very nice! What a SWEET little five gun. That's also a perfect amount of bark on those grips from my viewpoint. I've never been a huge fan of most stag grips because the unsymmetrical shape feels disturbingly uncomfortable in my hands, as well as causing my OCD meter to completely bottom out.

Is there a source for the front sight or do you just custom one up when needed ?

Did any work need to go into the loading gate area to accommodate the 10mm or does she squeeze in there?
