Chili Pepper Pete 11917 Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Up for sale is a pair of stainless 5 fixed sight custom ROAs. These pistols started life as 7 ½ adjustable sight models. The factory barrels were cut to 5, re crowned and the Ruger Bible removed. The blade front sight was replaced with a 3/16 brass post sight. The top strap was thinned down and a new wider rear sight groove was milled in. The lower frame was rounded and profiled to give the guns a sleeker more Colt appearance as well as making them easier to holster. The cylinders have been fluted and beveled. The action job consists of new 17# wolf mainsprings with reduced trigger return springs, Treso nipples and the timing adjusted to not leave rings. The guns come with checkered Altamont slim grips in Silver Black. Included with the guns are the original loading levers with one stock plunger and one plunger modified with a brass extension.$1,850.00 Plus shipping Please note that these are percussion black powder pistols so they can be sent directly to you in most states. Please know the law in your state as to whether you can receive them directly.Thanks for looking,Chili Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chili Pepper Pete 11917 Posted April 29, 2016 Author Share Posted April 29, 2016 Hey John, Thank you for the compliment. The pictures really don't do these pistols justice. Straight Arrow shot these in the Winter Range Plainsmen event and came in second against Lefty Eastman, so these puppies can shoot. I hope you and yours are doing well and look forward to seeing you this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackey Cole Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 The only thing missing is the Bisley conversion. If I didn't have a set of roa and decide ss wasn't for me and had not already bought a Ruger 2912 a Marlin 1894 cowboy comp in 38 and possibly a S&W 9mm in the last couple of weeks I might still jump on them.

Lead Friend, SASS #53635 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 It ain't through lack of wantin', more through a preponderance of obligations. If I step on a four leaf clover you are the first guy to get an email. BTT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chili Pepper Pete 11917 Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 Well best wishes to finding that four leaf clover. I too hate when obligations get in the way of wants I would also consider a partial trade for a Marlin Cowboy .38 Last price reduction $ 2,000.00 including shipping.

Blackey Cole Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 The reason they're running so high is these are the most reliable c&b guns out of the box I changed the nipples on mine and they were just as reliable if I followed my routine as my cartridge guns. And they are not being produced anymore. I prefer the blue ones over the ss guns plus they are hard to find in the non adjustable frame these days.
