    David Bradshaw Photos Vol. VI

    This is wonderful reading. I've always wondered if Ruger ever considered experimenting with other types of grips frames, similar to say Freedom Arms. My efforts to find someone like Power Custom to offer one have not been fruitful so I've mangled other grips frames with limited success, but the...

    Gabon Ebony

    Nice. I recently discovered Woodcraft. It's like getting lost in Cherry's showroom, back when they had a showroom.

    A 5 shot GP 44 Special is theoretically possible, yes?

    Someone was making 41 mag Pythons at one time which is roughly the same size. I went halfway with a 41 spl. http://i.imgur.com/nCFa8.jpg
