Andy's First Part #1

[groo]

Groo here
I just got off the phone with Andy Horvath.
He said that I could pickup my 475 Linebaugh conversions
on the 11th [Next weekend!!!!]
They are his first 5 shots. [Andy said they look "Purty Good"
and shoot "Purty Good Too".
He also admitted that Trailboss Loads were easer to shoot
I hope to have some photos soon.
[also hope the loan papers clear by then too ]

That is what he told me.

Wow, cool.

Groo I saw your 475/s before they were sent off to be finished Those grips are very solid in the hand and not having a tapered bbl was wise. nice pair Iam sure they will finish well. Look forward to pics ;D

I just got back from Andy's place with my "Pair of Fives"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All I can say for now is "I can't believe their mine".....
The Cylinders are 1.8in in length so I should have no trouble with most any bullet out there..
The fixed sight is a 4in with a dovetailed front sight Andy made. [ Same as my 41magNV]
The adjustable 5 1/2 in has a replaceable front that is easy to see.
Bluing by Andy is rich and dark as is fitting with a working gun. More black than blue,,I Like]
Turnbull casehardening is what we have come to expect.
And the GRIPS--- COCOBOLO--I doubt that a picture can do it justice..
The figure is out of this world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They are so nice I will need to fine someone much better with a camera to
photograph them correctly..
I hope to have photos soon ...
And thanks so very much to Andy for his work.......
