While this may be old news to some it's something I just heard about. Apparently back in the 70s there was a company called JACO that printed a pamphlet with some single shot pistol designs. I'm interested in acquiring either a copy of a pamphlet or a copy of the designs. I've done some searching and I'm not having any luck so I thought I'd ask if anyone here knows where I might look?

Thanks for looking.

I think I have a couple of the drawings , I'll look this evening .
I did build a westerner I thinks it's called 20 years or so ago .

They aren't complicated builds and are easily done with limited tools
And can look quite nice if you put in the effort


i have the .22 western pistol pdf , send your email and ill send it your way

I don’t have the plans but have seen and handled several of the finished pistols. Simple but strong and all worked well.
