FT's #148 357 and 44

[radicalrod]

Well Scott had a FT 357 #147 for sale and I was interested because I own these two #148 guns...

Well I just couldn't "pull the trigger" on the deal but he said they went to the guy that owns FT # 146 which is AWESOME....I know that feeling of putting a set together quite well :lol: :lol: :lol:

I just thought I would post a picture of my #148 FT's.....you may remember that the 357 was quite a project.....RR

Here is my first attempt at repair....



I decided I needed professional help....in more ways than one....I beat you to it :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Then off to see Walter for a "SALT BATH"........SHIZAAM....just like new...RR

RR,
Was there a story about why the 357 was "demilled"??

 

[radicalrod]

Lee, none that I am aware of....bought it off a dealer on GUN BROKER for $85 dollars....

I bought the 44 from RIA for slightly more :roll: :roll: :roll: thanks to Don....RR
