Too much $$ for this GI but, I like it.

Many years ago, a Deputy Sheriff that I worked with had one of those...It was a nice-shooting revolver that also looked pretty cool.

Davis also did some on the K frame S&W's and called them Smolts.

That is one sweet looking Couger. Thanks for sharing.

Another perspective: Davis took two nice revolvers ans screwed up both. jack

Funny but true IMHO. It's like taking 2 dogs and making "designer dogs" like LabraDoodles. Cute and fun, but high $'s for a mutt. I sure like the dogs more than the "designer guns", and nothing was butchered in the process :wink:

They do look VERY cool!
Back in the day when these conversions were popular I always hoped Ruger would come out with a heavy ribbed barrel with the vent cuts.
These did have a heavy influence on the cosmetic design of the GP100, too bad we never got a model with the vent rib cuts.

I would be VERY surprised if it sells for $2000 when you can buy a Python AND a Security Six for the same money.

Python barrels can still be bought separately so you don't really need two guns.

 

[Major T]

Actually, I knew that . I had a 2.5 " nickel Python rebarreled to 6" at Colts in the 70s. They returned the shorty and I sold it to someone. jack

 

[Sal1950]

I can't imagine it selling for 2K but not much surprises me any more. I've seen some really beat old PPC guns pulling more money than I would ever believe possible. But the worlds full of folks with more money than sense.

Almost, but not quite as strong, and probably almost as accurate as a GP-100. For only 4X as much.
