Chili Pepper Pete 11917

Well Happy Birthday to SASS and The Wild Bunch. This is my 20th year playing and I could not be more grateful for all this sport has done for me. The friends I've made and the good times shared. Thank you and Happy 30th Birthday. Best regards, Chili

Funny about the Picture Wyatt posted, The gun is in backwards, Strange!!! <<<<< Doesn't look at Straight Arrows Crotch

Best of luck to you tomorrow P. Dawg

Are those cylinders sleeved to .36 or .357?

I think its cool looking and alot of very nice work went into it. Enjoy Best regards, Chili

Reduced, I sent you a PM Dakota

No, I sold them but I have another set of grips and frames and was thinking about making another pair? I have everything I need other than the motivation

Thanks Catlow, I hope all is well with you and yours. I just build what the voices in my head tell me to What do you need and not just want? Thinking about a pair of Bisley ROAs or maybe another pair of Birdhead short barrel ROAs? Best regards, Chili

Nothing, but compared to everything else on here it seems like a nail biter.

BTT

Thanks for the kind words guys.

Twist rate is 1 in 16". Thanks Fireball It is a good looking rifle if I do say so myself Best regards, Chili

Marshal, I did the work on it. I have always liked the 38-40 cartridge and though it would be cool to build an octagon barrel single shot with an ejector for plainsman and just to have. I have found that I like 38-55 better so I figured I might as well sell it to someone who likes 38-40 The gun shoots great, opens and closes easy and the ejector tosses the casings as it should. I also added a notch next to the chamber mouth to pry a stuck case out should it ever occur. As for group size I have never put it on paper. I hit a steel 20" target at 50 yards off hand 9 out of 10 shots and called it good. Let me know if you have any other questions or comments. Best regards, Chili

Yes the gun is legal for Plainsman. BTW do you still have those Old Army's with the octagon barrels? I'm curious how the cerikote finish is holding up? Best regards, Chili

Price Reduced I have for sale a beautiful H&R Handi Rifle converted to 38-40 with ejector and a 19" octagon barrel. Its the perfect companion gun for those that love the 38-40. Rifle started as a 20 Gauge Topper and was stubbed and rebarreld with a Green Mountain Octagon barrel. The rifle sports a carbine style rear sight and a 3/16 Marbles gold bead front. The wood is real checkered walnut with a case colored butt plate. The case color on the receiver is near perfect and the barrel was cold blued (it looks very nice). Looking to get $ 600.00 shipped to your FFL or pick up at Winter Range [/url] Thanks for lookin Chili
