I was looking around on the forum at Lee Martin's site and ran across a discussion under Rifles where one of the folks there was talking about Gary Reeder's .500 S&W lever action conversion. He was worried it would not hold up. A person named Texasdude 74 made the statement "I have read that most of Reeder's revolvers are not shot much" in a response. I wonder where (more likely IF) he read that. I am just one of Gary's customers but I own a dozen Reeder revolvers, single and double action, and one rifle. I have
shot the everlasting hell out of all of them and they just keep on shooting. I suspect this is just one example of some snob not wanting to appreciate Gary's work because Gary doesn't charge $5,000 and take 4 years to complete a conversion project. Enough ranting for the morning.
