Sort of reminds me of the guy that did the 357 Max SingleSix

So it appears to me to be a 6”  OMSBH. Media blasted and reblued, with After market sights and a replaced base pin. I can see the frame being plum but do not recall ever seeing a grip frame plum colored. Clean looking gun, depending on the price it could be a good one. Trapr |

A marked gun by the same maker, I hope the pic shows how plum it has turned. In the hand it’s obvious but not ugly.  |

Nicely done forcing cone. Countersunk base pin.   |

Is there ANY evidence of having been fired? The forcing cone is silent.

I can't say this is how I envisioned the analysis of the gun going lol, but it was interesting to see opinions in the absence of a name attached.
In the case it had the look of a Clements gun, then as I inspected it everything looked and felt right. Then I looked at the hang tag and it was on consignment as a Clements gun. Having spent some time on this forum comparing others' builds and comparing to Clements builds I have at home, I'm as certain as I can be that he did the work.
For the price of admission just the Bowen rear and FA style front were worth it, but the rest of the gun has been made tight and right as well.
Now I need to decide what to do with it. Enjoy it, pass it along, or have it refinished back to a gloss blue.

Have Clements verify with a letter for future sales if no maker mark exists on the gun

When I saw the fiber optic blade I said "That looks like my Clements sights".  |

David's Baughman front sight blade, and the quick and easy way to refinish a rust pitted gun. Actually doesn't look half bad.
