    Finally got around to it late last yr.

    Converted to 45Colt. Cylinder rechambered. Bbl replaced with 5 1/2" NM 45 cal Ruger bbl that was turned down/tapered in profile.
    Colt style Target front sight base and pinned blade added.
    Steel Ruger 'Old Army' grip frame added. Steel Ejector Rod housing added along with Donut style ejector rod head.

    Original Ruger Adj Rear Sights removed and space filled in. Top Strap then reshaped and contoured to S&W M&P fixed sight style.
    New grips made from Am Walnut.
    Power Custom Bisley style hammer fitted to action.
    Shop made custom trigger in European Revolver style. Trigger return plunger and spring moved to inside grip frame so it does not show behind trigger.
    Polished and in the white in the pics except for the cylinder still needed polishing.
    Since the pics taken it has been finished polished, engraved and rust blued.
    Shoots well.











    oh to have those skills! How wonderful!
