Good day to all,        I'm a new member as of this morning. I'm a long time Dan Wesson revolver owner. Currently I own a 44 in 4" heavy, a 357 in 4" heavy, and a 22 in 4" heavy.

I'm a small collector of historically significant firearms. Working on my "bucket list".

I look forward to conversation and net working about the Dan Wesson revolver, the most significant revolver developed in modern times. Regards, Steve-o

Grant,      Definitely like the 4" heavy configuration. I pick up the 22 in 4" tomorrow. I'll post some pic's of the 4" trifecta tomorrow. I would consider all to be 99% guns. Since barrels are trending for as high as $150.00 and inch right about now. I'll stick with the 4" models. Great accuracy and balance. Steve-o

It took two years and an unforeseen stroke of luck......I got divorced. Hah! Building factory accessories for each gun is my mission now. At about $150.00 and inch for used quality barrels...it's gonna take a life time.

  have you discovered gunbroker yet? most guns are well or overpriced but good deals show up now and again. Some are underpriced with a buy now button. You obviously have a light case of DWAS if you let a little money stop you.

Welcome!  I believe the 4" Heavies are the best balanced BA, particularly for the large frame DWs.  Good to have you here.

Are we talking DW H, which is heavy underlug and solid (not-vented) top rib?

That would be pretty amazing

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.
