Hey guys...I have your emails and will send pics as soon as I get home from work...assuming my internet is working..it wasn't last night hence the delay...I have your responses in order so the first taker in order will get the parts.

The revolver is in the white as well and needs work (read sat in a wet box for some time)...I do have a new blue period correct barrel, ejector shroud, front sight assy w/screw and a pair of clean original grips. The existing barrel would need to be removed and replaced with the new...

OK will do and will hold to hear from OP and second...parts are in the white and no pitting (receiver, aluminum trigger housing and barrel)...but you will need to coat and assemble...really not an issue...I'll let you know and thanks. Hill

I have an old project 10/22 rifle I will never get around to building...this includes the complete rifle, disassembled and in the white...I glass bead blasted everything including the barrel...it came out of the back of a truck. If you are still interested I can supply pictures (have to take 'em...

Nah...heck it's 2-1/2 hours over there and I work all the time...not complainin'...just sayin'...And they charge you to get in those things! when did they start doing that?! There are plenty of gunsmiths in Oklahoma...I'm up in one of the most culturally dead cities I've ever lived...no music...

G2...Thanks for the reply...I have had the "feelers" out for some time and have yet to find a competent smith...This project has been goin' on for some 5 years or so and I'm in no great hurry...I do have a friend with an FFL so if I can save shipping cost elsewhere, that's a big help...and I...

John, I'm no smith but I'm restoring an old single six too and the grip frame seems to be some kind of paint as opposed to anodized...anyway, I glass bead blasted mine and painted with Alumihide ll...five coats, using a heat gun between coats and seems to be tough as nails. It has worked for...

rugerguy, I really appreciate your bringing that to my attention. Check is in the mail...and being a tinkerer as opposed to a real gunsmith, I'll have to find a way to actually change the barrels out...should be a learning experience :)...I did find the front sight blades at Brownell's for 7...

I have aquired an old style single six (3-screw)It has the fixed-dove-tailed type rear sight and the ramp type front sight that is screwed in place...as opposed to a soldered blade. The gun is a mess. spent some time muzzle down in a wet box and when I got it, the cylinders were rusted, the...
