My favorite local shop got it in today and called to let me know. I ran over, looked, and couldnt leave it behind. We installed the Leupold 1.5-5x20. I love those scopes. My 450/400 NE Ruger no1 wears one well also. Looking forward to the 35 Whelen.

Might have gone back to Ruger and rebarreled refinished etc. I would not refer to it as custom.

Good news is my Jack Huntington build is coming along. Al Siegrist rebored the Colt Anaconda barrel to 45 dimensions. New model flattop frame. Jack says this is the first 6" one he has done. I wonder what Skeeter would have thought. I wonder what the Duke would think.

Thats a cool custom S&W. Jack does great work.

I saw that May 1 is Skeeter Skelton's birthday. I had Alan Harton work this blackhawk over with the "Skeeter Gun" look. 4 5/8 barrel, front sight, base pin. I like my guns in 45 Colt though. Zane Thompson made the walrus ivory grips. One of my favorites.

Im not sure if he is still making them. I will see if I can contact him. He charged $90 for these stamped ones.

Fermin Garza has them. 2Dogs.

That was my old post. Nobody has seen one actually for sale.

Anybody seen one of the new small receiver African 77/22 hornets? They look cool in lipseys pics with the banded front sight. Ive seen the 77 hawkeye African in 35 whelen. I really want to see the 22 hornet.

I swapped to backer rod. Really helped. Thank you for the info.

Search Ruger 45 Colt on gunsinternational. Cabelas has one. Prices are high for this model as I imagine many think the short barrel looks cool.

The more I shoot this TGW Featherweight, the more I like it. Bobby and Ronnie really knocked it out of the park. I like using these pancake holsters made by an old saddle maker who lives near me. I have several in different lengths. This shorter one has been my least used but have carrying it a...
