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.

I remember that one,....had a hole in the barrel where the front sight had been moved back and screwed into place, about 1/16" of screw penetrated down into the bore. Had to shorten it more. Finished it out at about 3 3/4 inch barrel with functional ejection and a height adjustable brass patridge front sight on a slimmed down rifle barrel front mount. Went ahead and filled the front sight hood grooves in brass and put a brass ring on the ejector to stand out against the black and brown finish. Rust blue and Rust brown finish. Great shooter in 44 Magnum. Fun project.
