Nice, how'd you install the barrel liner, silver braze or solder or weld?  Been wanting to line a conversion for a long time, just got to many irons in the fire as is.

A bit about this Pistol, it is a 2007 Maufacture. and was a donar gun.

I aquired it in trade for some Leather work ( I like the barter system :))
The barrel is at Cartridge Conversions for a re-line to .357. & reblue.
It will be fitted to Dexter, My converted London model with a Kirst Konverter ( Dexter will then have two barrels a 3" Belly & a 7 1/2" )

This left the frame and Cyl. as spare parts , I aquired another barrel , the pictured one above ( another trade )
This one had never been on a gun.

I'm debating its final configuration , I may Bob the barrel to 5 3/16th  or 4 and fit a Kirst
nice job!

Major have ya done anymore to Elijah?..............Dusty

revisited this old thread....

I let Elijah go some time ago, it was just sitting , I had never fired it.
My good friend , the late Texas Law Dog , Jim Reed took a shine to it so it went to Texas.
Jim crossed the river, early in 2017. I know he enjoyed it his final few years with us.   :'(
