revolver, just because. Recently I found a picture of a #5 that I built probably 25 years ago.

It took me weeks to finish it and it ran in one of the gun magazines of the day. After looking at the picture I thought I needed to stop all the standard stuff and do something special. So I decided to duplicate that gun. I got with Robert, my main guy and built this one on my frame. It may be a little different but still a one-of-a-kind. There are a few flaws in there that I need to fix to where I am satisfied with it. I have spent way longer doing this than just about any gun in the past but this is where I am so far. We are getting real close to being caught up on customer's guns so I figured I would spend a little time building something special. And if you don't like engraving or gaudy guns, go to the fridge and get yourself a beer while I show this one.
It is not finished yet but will be probably by this weekend. It is another #5 and in the serial number I gave Elmer credit for his #5.
