It is such a rare configuration of TLA that I have no idea what the sight gap and top groove look like.

I sure would like to see what that top strap looks like.... I had that same thought, Greg. |

All this talk of 32-20 makes me want one.

I only shoot the hot stuff for hunting and practice for that. The rest of the time I rarely shoot anything over a thousand feet per second. Now some of the bullets are pretty big but they are slow.

I'm working in west Texas and the heat is the life. Drink a lot of water and keep fresh shirts and socks in the truck. A sweaty dirty shirt late in the day is terrible for the trip home. I'm too old for cold if I can help it. I've worked winters of Ohio, Alaska, North Dakota, and Wyoming. I like to stay south and just so you know, north of I-40 is tundra.

Take the grips off before you paint it Tim.

Just an update... Both halves of this gun arrive in Oklahoma today. Even though it's the wrong color for Tim and his first FA, I don't think it will be his last Freedom Arms.

I'm having the same problems. Only a dream to have to use the filters when I search for Bowen!  Greg don't bother with that Bowen search. If there is anything worth looking at I'll let you know... after I decide against it, and let Tim know and Robb and... |

Build quality is obvious but what about function with a variety of bullet lengths and cycling effort to make one of these tight fitted custom lever actions run.

Is anyone casting this design for sale ? I’d like to pick up a couple of hundred.

Top gun is a Harton 414 SM and the bottom gun is a FA 97 in 41 magnum.

Seven shots of 327 fit in a single six, 8 shots of 327 in that Harton OM, and 8 shots of 357 in a redhawk, I see no issues fitting 7 357s in a Blackhawk cylinder.
