McCandless Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I was browsing in a local toy store and saw a pair of "Old Model" stainless vaqueros I really like. (They's purty!) But they had Bisley hammers on 'em. Rule book says "Ruger Super Blackhawk/Montado style revolver hammers (i.e. lowered and widened hammers) are acceptable on both adjustable and fixed sight model revolvers." But I didn't see any specific mention of the Bisley hammers. I can change out the hammers easy enough, and have a nice pair o' shooters, but just wanted to see if I have to. Thanks! .

No Horse Hair, SASS #77464 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 If somebody took the time to install the Bisley hammers they may also have used the Power custom hammers that have half cock notches, a very worthwhile addition in my book....No Horse Hair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branchwater Jack SASS #88854 Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 PWB, If pictures are worth 1000 words, you just put together the April issue of the CC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaleWolf Brunelle, #2495L Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 PWB, If pictures are worth 1000 words, you just put together the April issue of the CC! This would be a follow-update to the April 2010 CC article clarifying the Bisley hammer/grip-frame restrictions that remained in place at that time...regardless of the approval of the Ruger Montado/SBHK-style hammers on 'plow handle' & 'birdshead' revolvers at the 2008 Summit.

Bad Hand Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 ROAs with "Bisley" hammers are even better with "Bisley" grips too. http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y218/90north/Bisley1_zpse9413ab9.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
