This thread has undergone the Lazarus effect.  Good deal. 

Dragoon's .45 Colt /.45 acp combo seems like the  ideal setup for interchangeability.  That one's a real looker.

Sooty, great photos there.  A beautiful piece.  Did you make those knives?  That fixed blade is particularly eye-catching.

Seriously cool items there, gents.  My boys and a nephew are visiting the house today and so I've been flashing those pics around.  It's a unanimous thumbs-up, well done.        :happy-thumbs-up-050:

No shit.  Just look at those things!  They're like The Second Coming in steel.

Better late then a no show.

I had traded into a 2nd gen 357 mag at the same time I got the 2nd gen 45 but that dang 357 was heavy heavy AND all it wanted to group with was expensive modern jacketed bullets sooo it went to another new home.

Like those pictures fellers. Good lookin shooters.

workin a trade for a 357 mag in a Pietta SAA 4 5/8 inch barrel. have never had one in my hand but think if this goes thru i just as well jump in and have a close up look.

can anybody turn me onto some info on them ... good ... bad ... ugly ??

thankyou.

Ted

Feels great in my hand (REAL close like a Colt), and the action is great. And I believe this is the least expensive model.
