This is the new look for my Bisley Hunter. I had wapitirod jewel the hammer and trigger for me. It looks great. This is not the only piece he done some magic on but, for now this is the only one I'll show and tell. (The other is still in the project status). Just want everyone to know that Rod done an excellent job, not that I expected any different, and was very professional to deal with and...very expedient on the turn- around. He is one of high morals and values. If all buisnessmen were as professional as Rod...well let's just say "it would be nice." I highly recommend doing buisness with him. I'm gonna appoligize in advance for the poor quality photo's...I had to use a cell phone.

That look very nice.

May have to consider that option


If it jams force it! If it breaks it needed replacing anyway.

Ahhh, it's all about the finer details. That is a nice touch, a touch of class if I say so. Nice work Rod, nice Bisley Kral.


Rod, too.

NICE!!

I have a Single Six that has a little rust on the hammer. The jeweling might clean that up and give it a good look. I never did understand why Ruger left the sides of the hammer in "the white" like that.

Very Cool KRal. It looks like we have had the same experiences with Rod. What a great guy!

Simply Beautiful, KRal. Great Work Rod. Oh by the way- pretty good pics for a "cell phone!"

Tigger, They keep it in the white to let you know you're not cleaning it properly and often enough!!!!

Thanks for the compliments on the new look. Rod did a great job. And yes, it is a touch of class. I'm headed to Texas next week to do some turkey hunting. I think I'm gonna take the bisley along in case I get an opportunity at a hog, aoudad, axis doe, sika doe or.....something....always need to be prepared! Might even field test a 300gr cast 44 mag on a Rio, then we will know how a 44 mag performed on a turkey. (never killed a turkey with a revolver)

Thanks for the kind words Kim and everyone else. His gun is looking nice and it's amazing how a little thing can make it stand out. If any of you are interested in any work just send me a pm or email me. My ffl is still in the wind somewhere so I can't accept whole guns yet but I can do the jeweling and cylinder work and some other small things.
