Hi Tyrel:

I've got a nice one which was gunsmith Happy Trail's personal gun.

His shop is The Smith Shop & his name is Bill English.

I bought it when he retired from cowboy shooting.

He still makes stuff for cowboy guns, and does limited smithing, as far as I know

I'll get it out and photograph it for you today

I'll take it per the email.

 

I'm going to leave this open though if another pops up at a fair price I'd probably buy.

Yep, I'm experimented with that heathen smokyess mess this year; I'm going back to BP regardless of category.

 

 

Don't suppose you want to pass along that discount?

Cody, Safecrakers deal is pretty good, mine are Cimarrons too fromTexas Jack and they were just a little more than those, but are Navy.

I tweeked the hammers lower and a nice action job, I love for BP.

Good luck.

I PM'd him and plan to buy them.

 

Did you just heat the hammers up and bend them?

Yes sir. My smith did them and tricked them up. I put sure hit sights on too and opened up the back sight.

Which sure hit sights are those, I see them for different guns? 

Is your gunsmith in the US? If so who?

Boomstick in TX did them. The sure hit sights I used were for a 38 Uberti filed down to the same height as the factory sight. Stuck them on with JB Weld.
