Our Assessment: One of a kind is exactly what this pistol is. We have had a series of FA revolvers come through this shop but none with this level of custom work. The Leupold Scope looks impressive on this revolver atop the octagon barrel, custom grips, and sling swivel studs. The presentation case is beautiful with a perfect fit, even the sling studs have little cutouts. The velvet interior is beautiful and the blue compliments this revolver great. If you wanted to leave this pistol on display I wouldn’t blame you, but if you decided to EVER take it hunting you need to invite me. The pictures of this gun against a backdrop of big game is really what I wanted to photo it against.
