OM Blackhawk .357 cylinder lock-up

[Joey]

No dice, my friend.

Let me see what I have. It will be tomorrow before I can check.

Thanks much, both of you. I appreciate it.

Ok, I found one. It's in pretty nice shape. Tiny scuff on the heel. Stamped XR3-RED and Alcoa G. Let me know what you think.

 

[Joey]

Looks good to me. I will send you a PM.

Not to change the subject, but, yeah, to change the subject.
Can anyone tell me if OM Blackhawk front sights are silver soldered or silver brazed in place? Also, the old model ejector rod housing lug. Didn't want to start another thread on this. Thanks.

You wouldn't have an OM xr3 red grip frame, by chance? I am in need.

Sorry no---just mostly internal parts...

Thanks to Randyzzz, I got a grip frame, chased the screw holes, and put it together. Spent a better part of yesterday trying to get it timed, put it down, started this morning and after about an hour, stumbled on the right hammer/pawl combo. Locks up now and is timed. Next step is to order a brass gf.
Going to take it to the range and see how it shoots. Thanks for all the help and info.
