I've been wanting a 7 1/2" and this one will stay. The only thing I will do to it sometime in the future will be custom one-piece stocks. Maybe ivory.

I'm partial to long barrel sixguns for hunting and general shooting but I just can't manage them on the belt. So I have some shoulder holsters that are great, if less conventional.

Of late I have acquired some "belt gun" sized SA and really enjoy them. I've noted no lack of accuracy either. The sight radius does not seem to hurt me much. But then again I'll never win any awards for iron sight shooting.

On that topic with the "fixed sight" older spec guns I've begun holding up more of the front sight (so I can actually see it) and using an exaggerated 6-O'Clock hold. It works for me, using my 1903 Bisley .32 WCF. The old Hawes .22 too, although I actually filed some on that one. MO better.

Quite the opposite of your beautiful old six-shooter. But it's full size and a .22 LR.

.357 and .44 Magnum. He shot them a lot. Several of the people we shot with had them also. In those days if you wanted a single action .44 Magnum it was Ruger or Hawes and the Hawes was cheaper than the Ruger.

So, let me guess...you like it?

Hmmmm.... does it show?

Really nice colors! Just keep him away from the hacksaw!

This one won't be cut!

That would really set off the case colors!

My Dad have several Hawes sixguns.

I think I gave $150 for it about 5 yrs. ago!

Just a bit....a tiny bit. It is a lovely classic.

A keeper for sure!
