coincidences do happen

A couple of weeks ago we got a 38-44 HD in in an estate sale. We sold that this past Saturday. Today a gentleman walks in with a 38-44 Outdoorsman. How many of those have you seen before. In my case maybe 1. I thought he wanted to sell it but instead we are going to chop it up, sorta. we are going to build him a new barrel in 44 Special and rechamber the cylinder to 44 Special and do some other cosmetic changes to it. Kind of a shame, but it will be nice when we get thru with it.

The hammer is neat. The old owner welded a wide thumbpiece to the standard hammer spur.

we never know what is going to walk in the door.
