Need to sell another 45 Colt. This is a conversion on an OM 357 frame. Still has all the OM parts - not converted. No documentation comes with it, and I do not know who did the conversion. The frame window was opened up a bit and the left side of the frame was shaved off. A custom 6-shot stainless cylinder was fitted. Tight chambers with throats at .4525" by my measurement. A pre-warning Ruger 45 barrel was fitted and crowned at 4-3/4". I had a local gunsmith solder on a new Blackhawk front sight. See pics - barrel was not reblued after soldering. It has a #5-style locking base pin. Aluminum ejector tube and grip frame.

I would not shoot very heavy loads in it. I have fired about 200 rounds of 260 Grain at about 1,000 fps, and it functions perfectly. I did not shoot for groups. It's a fun gun in the field.

$725 shipped lower 48 from individual (non-licensee) to FFL.
