    Anyone here know the gunsmith that built this Ruger Bisley?

    I believe the builder posted on this forum as Sharps40. I haven’t seen him post anything for awhile, but he had several interesting home brewed projects.

    Kudos to Randy at Connecticut Precision Chambering!

    I lucked into a 77/22 Hornet at a steal that has the full CPC package of rechambering, bolt tightening and trigger job. The very first magazine full I shot out of it was 0.5" at 100 yds using PPU factory ammo. This gun is amazingly accurate with everything I've tried in it. There's a 77/22...

    The Undecided Project

    I'll be very interested to see how you do your barrel band front sight. I'm contemplating trying something similar on Bisley that I've been gathering parts on for my own home smithing project.

    Taller rear sight blade for a Maximum

    Hamilton Bowen lists a rear sight for the Super Redhawk, GP-100, and the Hunter model that is 0.40 taller than the standard Blackhawk sight. You might find a factory sight for one of those models, or just spring for the Bowen which a far superior sight IMO.

    HELP!! Bisley grip frame

    The fit of grip frames that have already been fitted to another gun is kind of a crap shoot, it may fit real well, it may not. For what it's worth, I've swapped frames between a SBH and a Single Six with no fitting required. Sometimes you get lucky. I have two of the stainless frames like the...

    The grip frame on the 5 1/2 SBH is the same as Ruger uses on the 4 5/8 SBH.
