Captain Bill, I'm one of those who asked to see pictures. Thanks for posting them. They look great! I think the longer grip frames and 5" barrels balance out very well. Ozark Okie

I'll take it as we agreed in our PMs. Thank you. OO

Just sent you a PM. OO

Thank you.

I'm fiddling with my pistols this year; have pretty much levelled out on my speed (lack of), so my focus is on enjoying my friends and my equipment. The single sixes I'm enjoying will accommodate multiple grips frames - long and short plow handle, birdshead and Bisley. I have tried the first three, but recently handled a Bisley that I liked it very much. So, if anyone might happen to have a Bisley grip frame (or two), hopefully with grip panels, that they could part with, I'd like to hear from you. As always, I will appreciate any feedback - suggestions, advice, comments. Thanks, Ozark Okie BTW - I saw a Bisley Single Seven in .327 recently. Nice,....and interesting that you can shoot 327, 32 H&R, 32 S&W in the same cylinder. Has anyone tried the single seven for targets, hunting or plinking?

I'm sorry to say that I never met Goody; would have loved sitting around the fire with him. I did get to know him through his always interesting and knowledgeable posts on the forums. Also through personal help he provided me when I got interested in JP Sauer and Sons revolvers. He even sent me a hammer to try when one of mine was damaged. He was a good guy as many others have attested. I miss him.

Hey Deuce, I'll take the Gripmaker Vaquero stag grips. Ozark Okie

Was kind of late when I saw your PM last night. You can call me about any time , say between 8am and 10pm. Central Time Zone OO

another look

I have been shooting mismatched 32 H&R Single Sixes for a couple of years - one blue with short grip and one stainless with long grip - and would like to change to a matched stainless set. So I'm looking for one 32 Single Six stainless to buy or to trade my blue one for (plus $$ if required), I prefer long grip frame, but can use the short one. Just taking a chance here to see if anyone might have an extra. Would rather not go to Gun Broker, but realize I may have to. As always, thanks for your consideration, comments, suggestions.

This note is to give a public thank you to Wild Willi. Thanks to that kind gentleman I now have matching scrimshaw grips on my single sixes. We both thought we had a one of a kind pair. Obviously they go back a few years (maybe 15 years?), and I'm sure curious about who did them and if he/she did others. This forum is a great resource and the folks on it are a great bunch.

5 inch barrels with large plow handle grips will look great.

I have made that change....smaller grip frame for larger. The hammer strut and spring used with the smaller grip frame will work in the larger one. Sounds like a great project. What length barrels do you plan? Snake Oil George also does some good action work. Ozark Okie

River City, fyi. I am unable to view the pictures without downloading/installing some additional software. I don't want to add any more stuff to my computer. Maybe others are having the same problem. OO
