I have a stainless single seven that really, really wants to be a grown-up 32-20 brass-handled Bisley! Please take my money! Hahaha!

Got lucky the first time I looked and found a birth year stainless single six in great shape. It’s heading to Texas as soon as they box it up. Something I have never chased before but adds a neat factor to an already exciting project. Can’t wait Ronnie!!!

Gotta agree, this is one of those “can’t wait” really cool builds.

Even in black and white that cylinder looks like a piece of art. I've not seen a ratchet like that one.

Notice, the nice case head cutouts in the beefy looking ratchet, nice room so the cases drop in and out easily. Mostly recessed case heads, so you can ( at the right angle) see if your cylinder is loaded, and the cylinder fills the window of the revolver so elegantly, and fully. I’m loading up some of my accuracy loads with 158’s and 180’s. I’ll bet this thing is a tack driver! Not to mention a great sized, light weight, perfect packing pistol.

So I have spent some serious time with this gorgeous single-five. It’s a true masterpiece of engineering and function. No matter shooting commercial cast 158gr over 3.5gr of 700x or 168gr Keith over 11.5gr of 2400, the point of aim is nearly identical. The hammer fall is ridiculously fast and seems similar to a good S&W. Even though it can take stout loads, but it points elegantly. It points and balances similarly to Elmer’s No. 5. I will continue to update as I get more time with it. It’s definitely a work of art and I’m in love with it.
Thank you Ronnie for such a ridiculous 38 that I am going to try to wear out!
