Interesting site. Neat ideas and they appear to do bigger bores also. A 16 oz 44Spl is incredibly interesting to me as well as a .38 or 32 Mag and they also appear to have the lines of the gun looking "right"...the Tiger Stripe might be a little over the top but to each his own!
I will watch this thread evolve...
BTW Here are some prices on each type...
HANDGUNS
Dragonfly......................................................$1,095
Dragon Slayer ..............................................$1,695

Huh. The larger "Slayer" series looks "Ruger-ish", like maybe they used a Ruger frame? The "Fly" doesn't...possibly a re-tuned Italian gun? Where are they getting their core parts? In-house, or otherwise?

That Dragon Slayer looks like the same frame that Reeder is using on his new revolvers, based on looking at the ERH and how it's boss on the frame looks.

Interesting, I wonder if they offer a fluted cylinder?

Very interesting. Ask if gunblast.com can do an article on one. It would be great if they would allow gunblast to review the "Dragon Slayer" as well. Could it be as easy an ask?!?!? I hope so. Mark |

Wonder who ownes the company? Wonder if they know single actions? The company is owned by Kerry and Kelly O'Day. They have been very active hunters, shooters and gunsmiths for many years. I have met and talked with them at length at several SCI and NRA annual conventions. They seem to do good work, but I have never bought one of their guns. They have donated several for auction at SCI conventions, and their buyers have given good reports. The painted guns don't fit my personal style, but in my opinion from handling a reworked .500 L Ruger, the paint job is well done. I'm a bit interested in this so-called "target / back packing" version. |

I'm intrigued at the thought of a .44 Special and a .32 Mag that weight. I won't be the first one to plop money down, though.

He has priced his long cylinder single action significantly lower than Gary. I was initially caught up in the "once again available" frenzy but now that I've calmed down a bit I think the few dollars I've spent on a normal size 475L and 500L Bowen Nimrod in the last few months were much better spent.....

Well, that's certainly true, but still....
Following cubrock's thought, I think you ought to be one of the first to plunk down cold hard cash on one of those painted sub- one -pound .44 Specials ... to start a new "set", you know.
