Someone flipped me a bird.

[32shooter]

A Whitebird that is. Was at a gun show over the weekend and this little gem was on a table. I went back several times to look it over. Owner also had the box and extra cylinder. Ended up getting it for $525 and he threw in several hundred cast .45 bullets. Hope I did OK.

 

[Jim Puke]

You did ok...if you like that sort of thing... :lol:

 

[Hondo44]

Great catch! Don't fins those everyday! With the bullets you actually got it for less than $500. You'll need to ream the chambers throats though unless you re-size those bullets.

Man, you just went on my dream vacation. You got the grail of the Birdsheads and a bunch of .45 Colt bullets to boot. Looks like a really nice clean one to boot. I don't even use the .22LR cylinder in mine. It's an armadillo slayin demon with the Mag cylinder. I put a Bisley hammer on mine with the black micarta. This is the first Birdshead I ever bought, and my favorite .22 MAG revolver ever.

You know you did well!.. :wink: :wink: Glad you bought it before someone else.

It was Good to see you at the gun show again.

WOW, Congrats deals like that don't show themselves very often.

 

[Skoopski]

Super deal, well done. Good deals make the guns more enjoyable...

 

[roylt]

How rare is this and or the 22 Vaquero?

In my life I would like to shoot a bird and a bisley to feel the grip.

 

[32shooter]

This is my first bird. Have never shot any so will see how it is. Gunsbam, I like that Bisley hammer on yours. May have to give that a try. Terry it is always enjoy running in to you at the shows and getting to chat with you. From what I have found there was 450 made.

 

[roylt]

So when you don't like it you can send it my way to try.

very nice grab love the grips

You'll need to ream the chambers throats though unless you re-size those bullets.

Huh? :?

I didn't notice any mention of throat or bullet dimensions!?!

 

[roylt]

It was a joke. The original deal was a 22 cal gun with extra 45 cal bullets.

 

[T.A. WORKMAN]

Now you need to find a "Black Bird" to go with it. :wink:

[OldePhart]

Sigh...I'd be extremely jealous if I had a good stock of ammo... LOL

@Terry - that's a right purdy pair of birds, there! Two in the hand vs one in the...no, wait...that's not right...

 

[32shooter]

Terry, those are a couple of nice ones. I think I might need one in .32 now. It just never ends.

 

[jrod]

Very nice! Now I have another one to add to my wish list!

 

[Mus408]

Nice catch on the Whitebird!

I enjoy the two I have...
