Single action perfection. Bisley hammer, case colored frame... and that front sight, wow!!
I would love some more details about the front sight and perhaps some more pics.

Here is a link to my photo album showing all the pics. click on the pics to enlarge. some will enlarge twice.

http://www.randgfirearms.com/photogalle ... temId=3711

Started as a 1958 Flattop that someone had put a loooong barrel on and tapped it for a scope. Dont ask me why. Anyway I sent it to Alan and told him I wanted CCH, Bisley hammer and a flat top target style front sight. We were originally going to do it with a drift adjustable rear more in line with the original Colt FTT but decided to go with an adjustable rear. Alan adapted the Micro rear from one of the 50th anni guns since the original was MIA. He made the front sight base and added a brass blade. A few months and $$$$$$ and it should actually arrive Monday (the after pictures are from Alan). Range test to follow.
