SDS is not a Tisas , its made by Armscor = read Rock Island still a nice gun @ a super good buy

Quote from: Rube Burrows on September 13, 2024, 10:02:01 AMWonder if it's been reblued? I would not care personally cause I am a shooter more than a collector.

I considered the same thing

Hello!  Does anyone know of a smith who does this, or where I can find a cutter for a .44?  Thanks!

If you cast bullets, Lee has this mould. https://leeprecision.com/8mm-molds
If you don't cast look for a round nose in .323"-.324" range.

brand new for $249.
The closest RK was 72 miles (then) and I was just giddy to go grab one.
Well, one thing or another and I procrastinated: and did not go.
Sometimes it pains I didn't get one.
Now Rural King has a location 1/2 the distance, and the Tisas 1911 is twice as much.



 

$300 at PSA at the moment:

My "chuckles per post" ratio is higher than average for this thread. Thanks, fellas!

Coffinmaker, you just go right ahead with lustrum.  Irregardlessly, we know what you mean!   


Alumnus...hmm, isn't that the foil stuff we make our brainwave-blocking hats out of?

Is the conversion cylinder embellishded with the Ormsby naval scene?

I was wondering that as well.  Would love to see more pics of the whole gun.
Cheyenne, what are you going to shoot in it?  Heeled bullets?

I guess I are an "alumnus" because I did attend school, but I don't seem to be included in any of the "alumni" activities. Not because I am not invited, but because I just don't go.

One must ask, howver did it survive so nicely?

Wonder if it's been reblued? I would not care personally cause I am a shooter more than a collector.
