several years ago. At least, as close as I could get, Texas Longhorn Arms parts and all. A couple things didn't turn out exactly "right" in my mind, but it is a very fine sixshooter. .44 Special based on a Old Model .357 Blackhawk. One of the most accurate handguns I own.

If I'm limited to one, it would be that one. Seems more than fitting and it is a whole lot of fun.
