Revolver you won't see every day

[graycrait]

64oz 6" Dan Wesson .357.

I am waiting for a red dot for this but can take the rail off and use black or fiber optic front sight in conjunction with the target rear. I could put a pistol scope on it also. Heavy shroud made by EWK Arms.

[Oh Shoot]

That's gonna require quite the custom holster, eh?

Your guns get better and better. I gotta stop looking at them.

As the President and sole member of the ISSF (Impractical Shooting Sports Foundation) I was out at a friend's house where he has a gong set up at 180 yards. I shot it a couple of times with my Dan Wesson .357 2.5" heavy shroud setup at 140 yards. Then I got to day dreaming. I called a friend in the gun parts making business and asked about a 6" heavy shround for my stock DW 6" barrel. Eric Kovachic, at EWK Arms, told me he had something sitting on the shelf that there didn't seem to be a lot of interest in and then described it. I got all tingly when he told me about the shroud with rail with iron sight option. I suspect now I need to find another Dan Wesson .357. I also think it would be sort of cool to do something similar with a DW .22 revolver. More on par with the weight of 5.5 MKII/II or 7" S&W 41 with barrel weights.

Castor, it does pain me at times as to why others can't see some things with the same "clarity" that I do.

Very......interesting. Not my cup of tea but I'd sure love to shoot it. Have to hold it with both hands though weighing that much......my wrists aren't what they used to be....

Reminds me of old school Chapman-Bianchi matches. What you need is one of the original Helium lasers for it. Check out Helwig holsters.I think they are still in business. Don't knock "impractical " guns they can put the fun back into "capbustin".

I'm also partial to steampunk designs so yes I'm a little warped.

Cheers,

Unique would be the most descriptive assessment of graycraits current project.

......how about for ALL of his projects.....

[Ramjo]

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!

[nightrunner]

I think its cool as heck. Might try to find a smaller red dot though. Would be really cool in either .357max or .445supermag. Maybe you could work up some reloads that produce ALOT of muzzle flash

[krunchnik]

Now thats a revolver!

[graycrait]

I streamlined the optic with a Millet 3MOA, but it still weighs 64oz.

[gjohnsoniv]

I like it.

[Fourtyfive]

Rather intimidating .....

[monkeylizard]

Nice.

Now where's the bayonet?

[Ramjo]

Nice. Now for the holster lol.
