I bought one of those. I shot a couple cylinders and then sent it out to be converted to a #5. You will enjoy it.

Is Clements doing the conversion to a #5?
He told me he was working on one. That's why he had parts for sale.

Brigham Hardware in Dover, Tennessee. A family-owned joint, a real blast from the past. Elvis once worked there as a young feller.

Didn't you get the memo? You are supposed to send that to me for "ETENDED TESTING".
Super nice piece. reflex264

VERY nice! Took me two years of looking, some help from a collector pal, and a bib full of cash to get mine.
Beautiful blade, too!

Glad you found one Boge! ! Here's a better photo of mine (I'm tryin') Bushog, I love your gun, but I really love the knife. Can you give us some info on the knife and it's maker? Oh ya, hay Boge, I love your gun. It's really a classic peace of the gun makers art.

Knife is by Jerry Fisk, Nashville Tennessee. He's been deemed a National Living Treasure. Knives get more expensive (not much) but not more traditional and classy IMHO. www.fisk-knives.com
