I think Mike was alluding to his Ruger Old Army conversions...?

 Rugers have no part in this conversation.

No, but the fact he can shoot +P ammo in them does.

What does that have to do with Italian open tops? :icon_scratch:

Zulch,  I'll post pics as you requested later today when the lighting is better. I dont have any pics of that particular gun in my files.

 Let me know if it is more appropriate to start a new thread for such pics.

dangt, good morning. Just start a thread here,  https://coltcountryforum.com/index.php/board,133.0.html Can't wait to see it. Thanks. Z

Nothing. Other than the fact that +P was mentioned and Mike piped up?
Only Mike knows for sure. I was just throwin' out a long shot.

You guys are too funny!!

This guy eats  23K psi stuff like candy .  .  .

It was the first 45acp conversion. I'm pretty sure I posted about it in here.
Anyway,  it's definitely the new " fun gun" at the range!!

Thanks Zulchy !!
  Just another word about this particular revolver,  I removed and re-torqued the arbor  to be sure it's not just "shy" of being  loose ( I do that on all my personal  and "custom package" tunes. Built to the closest of tolerances, I wanted this to be a "premiere" test bed for this new cylinder.  So far it has been perfect and quite accurate!!
 This is an Uberti '60 Army of 2018 manufacture. I'll be testing a Pietta  platform soon. I am NOT advocating shooting anything other that factory 45acp ammo .  .  .  this particular revolver is purely and simply a test bed for me and for ( corrected) platform testing.
