Barbwire Bill, SASS #661

A buddy of mine got a Chiappa Spencer and is looking for someone to tune it up. Doesn’t anyone specialize in them? Are there any Cowboy Gunsmiths in Calif? thanks BB

I have a small safe that came with an electronic lock. It’s an American Security . The lock failed even with a new battery. The safe dealer sent out a locksmith who tried several things including. Replacing the keypad assembly and couldn’t open it. Cost me a few $$$ to have him drill it to get it open. I replaced the lock with a S&G mechanical. He told me they never fail.

I saw the gun I want at SHOT with case hard frame but no one seems to have them for sale yet. Are there any Winchester dealers on the wire I could contact?

Who did the engraving on the grips? I like the SASS logo on them

What kind of street prices are you seeing for Colts? i haven’t seen one in my area for a long time and on Gunbroker they seem to be going for around $2000 or maybe a little less

Now that they have been out for a bit and seem to be available, how are the Standard Single Actions holding up? Are they comparable to a real Colt? Are any showing up at competitions? Just curious if they are just collector pieces or real shooters? Thanks

I am looking for a NIB Winchester 1873 44-40 24 in barrel full octagon without the pistol grip. If anyone knows where I might find one I would appreciate the info. Thanks BB

Are these still available and can you send me a pic? Thanks

These are great photos. I remember many of these pard’s I wish SASS would digitize all the old Cowboy Chronicles into a set of DVD’s. There are some great stories and wonderful pictures in those old issues. I still have all of mine.

I saw them at SHOT as well. Nice looking gun. Didn't get a lot of info, but the guy I talked with said they were made out of bar stock, so no cast frame. He also indicated a lower price than Colt but he may not have know for sure. I hope they can produce a good product at a decent price. Always looking for an excuse to buy more guns. I would like to see Capt Baylor do a review of this and the rolling block that Tippman has out.
