These just came in from Charlie C. I haven't been to the range yet but from feel alone-I was missing out. The snubby has some added heft, which is a good thing, and it's only required a little muscle to adapt itself to my safariland OWB. The Gripper gives a much better feel than the old service grip I had on it while making a softer outline on my shirt-I don't print as bad. The fiber optic sight on the 4" is fantastic, as well. It's my first one and I can't believe how it catches the light. Bonus: I get to keep the original stuff in oily bags so they'll stay nice indefinitely. Now I just need the rest of the EH stuff...DWAS!!!

the snubs aren't really my look, but the 4 incher looks really cool! bet it's a dream to shoot fast!
It sure is. I finally got to shoot them last weekend and it was phenomenal. The 4 kicks less than it did when it had the old 6" barrel on it and the snubby is a dream compared to what it was. A few rounds out of it with that old 2 1/2" and the slick service grip and it was like getting hit in the palm with a slippery hammer. Forget the sights. Flinch city. I'm not a huge fan of the looks, either, but it's my carry piece-it's going to get beat up, anyway. The 4 is for the nightstand. For that matter, I wonder how hard it would be to mount a rail under it...for a light...hmmmm...?

How?? It says they're still sold out of everything. I still want a 6 and 8!
I emailed him to ask if they were going to make anymore about 4 wks ago and he replied that he was going to have another batch of 4" barrel assys finished soon.
We corresponded again last week and he had some almost ready to go. Since I am planning to finish the project in black manganese phosphate (parkerized) anyway, he sent me one "in the white".
I just got it in the mail yesterday and it's very nice.
Good service from him; finalized the order on Monday, received it by Friday.
This is a 4" barrel assy for a 15-2 .357 mag.
Email him, he was very helpful.
Pics of the project will be forthcoming.
