I don't believe that Doc plans on shooting that one. There isn't a ring on the cylinder or anything. It's pristine. He showed it to me a while back when I was in his shop, and it is indeed a thing of outstanding beauty. Now of course, it would be FUN to shoot, but I suspect that knocking off several hundred dollars of collector value would probably not be worth the fun. Unfortunately.
Beautiful piece, Doc! Thanks for posting those photo's, now I can enjoy beholding it once more!
Cheers!
