Look what followed me home!

Broke her out of Layway jail! It's been a long Two Weeks. The fit and finish is really nice. The Grip Frame to Cylinder Frame is the same as my 50th Anniversary 44 Mag Blackhawk, which is just about perfect. Felt no creep when I was Dry Firing.

I took a 452 cast Boolit and I was able to push it thru the Colt cylinders with my fingers, the same with the ACP cylinder. I guess this means I don't need to ream out the Cylinders.

In the box was the usual papers, manual and a Lispy Card, 45ACP Cylinder, Shank Lock, Internal Lock Keys and Test Fired Case.
Going to do some shooting this Sunday and have some Fun! ..................................

10BEERS: That is a beautiful SA Revolver! I've always loved the Ivory grips on a blued gun! I'm guessing that's in .45 Colt?

I have a 6.5" stainless Single-Six in .22lr / .22mag and I LOVE shooting SA!

Have fun!

Nice revolver, what Ruger should have been building 30+ years ago. I wish I could find one!

I had to ream the cylinder on mine, but it shoots very well. You'll enjoy yours.

Blued ... Just like yours . APC cylinder passed the slug, but not the 45 Colt.

Here is mine with it's new sister in SS that I got tonight.... Both SS cylinders were .451. So reamed the .45 Colt cylinder and left the .45 ACP cylinder alone.
