This first one was actually done a couple of weeks ago. One of the regulars called and said to hold it for him and he would call back with a card number. Well, he never called back so it is up for sale again. It is a very special Southern Pride in 454 Casull. It has a 4 1/2" barrel that is perfect for packing and is dual ported to soften the recoil a bit. It is full engraved and finished in our deluxe Black Chromex finish with contrasting gold bands on barrel and cylinder. The hammer and trigger have been jeweled. It has had the full Positive Performance Package and is super smooth and accurate too. It has a really nice set of Mongolian stag grips fit to our Gunfighter Grip. It has the interchangeable blade front sight with the red fiber optic blade. It has the Belt Mountain base pin for a tighter lock up. The gun is full custom from top to bottom and one of the nicer hunting revolvers we have built in a good while. With the full custom gun, full engraving, dual porting and the Mongolian stag grips, the gun would normally run just north of $3200. It is specially priced at $2395.

The next gun is sort of a bar-B-Q gun. It started out as a standard blah Springfield Armory 1911 in 9mm. I decided to fancy it up a bit make it something special. We did a full high polish on the slide (the images you see are the clouds overhead reflected on the high polish). We polished up all the internals, added an ambi safety and did a full action job on it. We added a nice set of Ivory Corian grips (and no charge for the spider that decided to walk over the grips as I was taking the pictures). The gun is the perfect Bar-B-Q gun and accurate too. With the work we have done, plus the new gun it would normally run $1995. It is specially priced at $1595.

my idea of a perfect packin' .454 Casull. Did it start life as a Blackhawk?

I don't remember. Either a Blackhawk or

what would it cost to convert a Super Blackhawk to the .454 shown, with a few changes, keep the 4 5/8" barrel and keep the original the factory grip and no engraving at all. I may be interested in a conversion.

give me a bit more info. Current caliber and barrel

if you have a Super Blackhawk, and want a 454, you will need a new barrel, new sights, new cylinder, new internals as you are going from a 6 shot to a 5 shot, work on the frame as we are putting a larger cylinder in there. You will need an action job to fit those new parts and you will need a complete rebluing. So either way you go you are looking at a bare minimum $1500, probably a bit more. That is why our packages are the best buy. You save a minimum of $300 by going with the packages.

Current gun is a stainless steel

You don't have to do the reblue but the gun still has to be fully refinished as all the factory writing has to come off by law as it is no longer a Ruger gun. But it will still be within a few bucks of the price I quoted.

Beautiful work Gary!
