Wheel Gun Show-N-Tell

[Slow Hand]

Yes, even my high capacity semi-auto lovin' self is jealous of all his old-timey guns with the funny turnin' things in the middle!

Awww; that's sweet, Mark!!

A little update to one of my favorites.

Found a set of 'target' grips the other day so I cut them down and fit them to my .45 Colt Blackhawk.

I've had this one for several years and have done a lot to it. Smoothed it up inside for a great action and trigger pull. Modified the front sight for a better sight picture, Steel ejector rod housing to replace the alloy one, Belt Mountain #5 locking basepin, Bowen Classic Arms target rear sight, Fit a Bisley hammer to it and also fit a stainless steel Super Blackhawk gripframe to it as well as making and installing a lanyard swivel to it. I'm sure there are other little things, but it's been slowly modified over the years. It's not going anywhere soon!

My Uberti 1875 Army in .45 Long Colt!

The only revolver I own and only the second I've ever shot. A .44SPL I inherited that I honestly don't know much about.

A Rossi in .44? That is a Rossi isn't it? A .357 Rossi was my first gun purchase ever--it's still my favorite despite numerous other pistols of higher quality, and worth much more.

These are beautiful, and all seem so accurate--you've really cultivated them. Well-done!

I really dig Eagle Grips--so many great options and pics--makes my mouth water!

Yes it's a Rossie 720 .44 SPL. It is in good shooting condition but I'm going to try and polish it up so that it is a little more "presentable" since at most it might be an in vehicle BUG to my G22 and 1911.

All my revolvers have holster wear! My j frame the finish is flaking off, but they used to be nice. They all shoot like new.

If you ever want to sell, you've got a buyer...

How does this thread have 129 posts and I have never noticed it!!!

Here is my favorite wheel gun, my dad bought it for me when I was 16. It is a pinned and recessed S&W Model 19 .357 Magnum with custom jewelled combat hammer and trigger and a hand tunned action by my friend that has been a gunsmith since his uncle sam trained him in some place called vietnam.

My second favorite wheel gun. My dad bought this used in about 1965. It is the first handgun I ever shot.

What brand of holster would that be on the right?

This is not (nearly!) up to Joe Williams Revolver Pr0n(tm)(r)(c) standards, but you need to trust me - this gun is gorgeous.

A Smith and Wesson Model 19-3, born in 1975.

She's a beautiful gun, a true classic. Should serve you well!

 

[44 MAGNUM SHOOTER]

629-4 5" with non fluted cylinder and talo grips. The grips took alot of work to get as Smith & Wesson hates to sell them by themselves.

 

[Woodrow]

Beautiful. Revolvers are the end all. Classy, classic--totally reliable. Will post soon.

My latest addition to the family. I really enjoy this handgun. It's a SP101 2.25 bbl .357

Last 2 posters need to provide details!

The corollary to "this thread is worthless without pics", is "pics are (sometimes) worthless without details!"
