Factory barrel with Magnabrake or SSK Arrestor. That's my thoughts.

Very good deal if you like how it is configured.

I WOULD SAY THAT THAT REVOLVER HAS BEEN WORKED ON BY MAG-NA-PORT OR BY SSK, EITHER WOULD BE QUALITY WORK.

You may want to ask the seller about the barrel work... Barrel is original but appears to have been threaded for a brake. If that is the original owner they can probably tell you...

I bet the solid bottom brake makes a big difference.
Sometimes guns that have a little visible custom work end up having had more extensive internal work as well.

...I asked the seller what he knew about the barrel work...
"I don't know , the barrel has a place that unless you look very close you would not see where it's attached ..the way I saw it was another member asked same question ...I looked close and saw it ..so I would say not permanent attached ..it is a nice pistol and thanks for looking"

Figuring that the ammo is worth $500+, the scope $250 and mount another $135 plus the case, sling and not to mention FREE SHIPPING someone could end up with a bargain...

If you are not used to shooting a 454, you will appreciate that brake. It will be louder with the brake, but a lot nicer to your hand and wrist. I have hunted with FA83’s with brakes (SSK and Reeders ) for over 30 years, it will take you into a whole new category of handgunning, if you win this auction. From rabbits to Buffalo, that gun can do it all.

Yes, I messaged him a couple days ago. He's not the original owner. He wasn't sure who had done the barrel work. Justin

That gun is located in Claxton, Ga, famous for Claxton Fruit Cakes. Maybe the seller will throw one in on the deal. The gun looks like a great snag for someone. If I didn't already have one...

Well, I might change my mind.
A guy at my gun club just posted 2 stainless Ruger 45 Colt 3 1/2" Vaquero Sheriff models for $1400
That's almost impossible to pass on.
