I quit smoking on May 28 after 27 years and figured with the money that I'm saving I would by my self something. So here they are. I'm thinking about having the top one customized with a bisley hammer and case-hardening. If someone has a picture of a Flattop with a bisley hammer would you mind showing it? Thank you in advance.  |

Ready to be CCH by Turnbull, Alan Harton took the pics.It should be back from Turnbulls in a few weeks.  Although it will be wearing this front sight and base instead of the one pictured above.  |

Quiting smoking is a good thing no matter what! I cant believe how costly it is now. I quit over 30 years ago cold turkey and never looked back. Good on ya!

Congratultions. That's great!! I never could figure out why people pay their hard earned money to smell so bad and ruin their health. I lost my father at age 56, my brother at 42 to smoking related illness and it finally killed my mother after she coughed all her adult life. Enjoy your "new life" and your new toys!

Good for you! Lots of empathy here. I'd like to light up right now but know that it would lead to more. May is a good month to quit. May of '78 was mine.  |

I'm at 12 years smoke free in February. Congrats, I wish I'd set aside all the money I've saved.

BIG congrats, that's a tough thing to do. My uncle, with whom I was very close to, died of lung cancer related health issues two years ago after a long fight (the cancer spread to his brain). Sad to see such a great man destroyed by cigarettes. Stay strong and never go back, believe in yourself and you can do it! Plus, look at the AWESOME revolvers you have to show for it!

How many packs a day did you smoke a day to save that much in 3 months? I might just start smoking so I can quit and get a few guns I have been wanting!  |

Thank you for all of the responses. The pictures of the bisley hammers are fantastic! I have a few custom guns, but none with the bisley hammer and standard grip together. I had intentions of waiting a year before I made any purchases to reward myself, but I'm a gun guy that is too easily lead into temptation. So I guess I owe me at least 9 more months of not smoking. The good news is that the cravings have pretty much gone away and I really don't think about smoking very often. Thank you, again.
