Well I figured since we lost the other site we might as well restart it here.

So on with the gratuitous pics. Oh by the way OS and I have been working on ideas for the rings I'll try and post some plans after I get a chance to run them by a jewler.

Used to own an OM .45 Blackhawk and an Acusport .45 Bisley convertible, but sold both to help pay for the TLA in .45. Would love to replace both someday.

I'm buying the wife a new digital after the first of the year and I'll get all of my 45's photographed so I can put them up if wanted.

Here's one of my Colt SAA's in 45 Colt;

Image

Here's my FA 83 in 454 Casull, will shoot 45 Colt too;

Personally the 45 caliber is my favorite in a handgun, either SAA or 1911 platform.

Hey Joe, I really like your 4" 25. I just wish there was a way to build a .45 Colt gun on a K frame, cause my hands are too small. I bought my brother's 629-1, 6" with the same Pachmayer rubber grips yours has & it's just too big for me.
Cubrock, you don't have to worry about ME getting tired of seeing pics of your Longhorns.........take that to the bank! jd45

JD,

I've got a couple different types of Pachmyre grips for N frames. When we can hook up I'll bring them and you can try them out.

The top one is a Colt Saa in 45 colt. The next is a custom aged Uberti in 45 colt. The third one is a Ruger with stag grips in 45 colt and the last is a Uberti 45 colt that I aged. I have one other Colt Saa 45 colt NIB to match the first one.

I got in late here on this subject. I have never been big on the 45 L. Colt. Elmer & Skeeter ruined me on the 44 Spl. Anyway, I only have 3 sixguns chambered for the grand ole 45 LONG Colt.

#1 is a 1941 produced Colt New Service. Made for the New York State Police.

Image,

#2 is a Colt SAA NIB Serial # Sixgun 2 (Sixgun 1 is a 38-40),

#3 is an OM Ruger convertible,
