Hi all in the U S A, hope you all had a good xmas, plenty of turkey washed down with lots of jacks bourbon.
Any way I thought I would show you guys the finished gun thats now ready to shoot in and get that barrel working. It`s been a lot of fun and a great learning excise and I`ll have to think of somethink else to do !!!. I know, the gun needs a cover with some bead work on it, so here are the pic`s, I`m off to buy some beads, cheers, .357
