My neighbor has a machine shop. He made the barrel for this Old Army action, has a 45LC BP converted cylinder in it, put on a RSBH grip frame, is making barrel band for the sight now. It's amazingly easy to point and it balances great. Man is it going to shoot nicely. He's going to polish the loading lever and leave it in the white so it matches.

After holding it I had to go over with Boomer and get a pic of them together. Couldn't resist. Razz

It looks like their barrels are long enough to qualify as a pistol grip rifle. Very nice stovey! I like the caliper/mic affect that implies precision.

I like it. Boomer's got a girlfriend it seems.

He's done a very nice job on that barrel mate...what length is it? That will make one helluva IHMSA gun, or a hunting pistol if he's that way inclined.

Like Slim, I like the vernier and micrometer in the pic mate...very 'precise'.
