Whoa that is one tough lookin' hunk of beauty of a pistol Jaggman! I've never seen a scope mount like that. And nice grip too, is that an LB?

   When you pull that thing out at the range, I bet it gets drooled over by every guy there!

I think the unfluted cylinder looks so great, and I agree that the scope mount is unusual. Is it held in just with one pin,or is it drilled and tapped?

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

WOW check out that serial number!  Is that a First Issue?  Has it been fired?

Beautiful gundrool!  A 460 is on my short list along with a 45 and a 414.  Who knows, I may live long enough to find themlol2

Doug, Welcome to DWF. 

.460 Rowland is pretty uncommon to begin with, and there is certainly a special history behind that S/N.

Dan Wesson was actually pretty pretty active with custom S/N's. My favorite is "Celtic-17", a 15-2 purchased by a fan living in Weston, MA,  on 12/26/1978 as a gift to the Boston Celtic's John Havlicek, who retired in 1978

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

I suppose the original owner liked his Ford 1-ton?

I really like this cartridge having a converted 1911 version. It should really stand out being able to load  longer in a revolver and having a longer barrel. Semi magazines limiting the use of heavier bullets, etc.
