Got my simple Reeder Conversion 38-40 Blackhawk today. Some genius had lost the cylinder from a Buckeye Blackhawk, so I bought it for $400 for a project gun.

Sent it to Gary to convert to 5-Shot and build a new 38-40 Cylinder. I wasn't interested in the 10mm auxiliary, so this made sense.

Here is the gun and details on the next post...
