It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

Nice one LABRAT! I'm guessing it was converted from 357 mag? I dig that case hardened frame too.

Just caught up on the other posts. Raptortrapper I'm drooling over all of yours. I'm waiting to receive my Contender today. Where did you get the laminate fore end?
Kral a superb collection of FAs and blades and I've never seen a nicer looking muzzle loader barrel!
Keep em coming folks! I hope to add my contender pic soon.

yes sir. it started out as a 1963 .357 blackhawk. if you didnt know that the gun was a custom and not factory peice, you would think it was a factory built gun. it is my favorite mountain gun to pack.

Neat! That's the only way to get an old model 44 special blackawk. Took Ruger 55 years to decide to make one with their new model blackhawks. A lot of 3 screw 357s died and were resurrected during that half century.

And one of my double actions and the one that gets the most miles on my hip, my .454 Redhawk: Whit, did you do this one yourself or did some pistolsmith do it for you? I've seen on several forums done both methods. Steve

Rod worked on 4 of my Rugers a while ago and remade my square back super blackhawk into this masterpiece.  I plan on using it this whitetail deer season! 240 grain Swift A frames.
