CF,  Works good now.  So what is the magic for what you did?


 

I swiped your medium pics from Photobucket, saved them to the DWF, then went in & edited your pics in the post.

I think there may be a Photobucket/DWF compatibility issue happening today. I sent Jody a note about it, hopefully he can make it better soon.Smile

Yep, thx- I see them perfectly now.  Reeder does very nice work.  I have a Contender and an Encore barrel from him.  Gotta love that Chromex finish too.

Those are some long barrels. You have got to be a Wyatt Earp fan with his 12 inch barrel pistols.

Thought I would show a few picks of my latest acquisition, and at the same time resurrect an old forum thread here that has a lot of interesting reading and pics. I am sure we have many forum members with great single-action revolvers.

   I am pretty excited as I picked this one up a week ago, United Sporting Arms Seville Silhouette in .357 Maximum. These were extremely well made revolvers, and the company had a short but interesting lifespan. Here is a somewhat lengthy but very informative article on United Sporting Arms.

   I appreciate well engineered and precision machined firearms and this is one. Barrel to cylinder gap measures a consistent .001". Action cycles smooooth. And yes I shot it and it shoots great, the stretched frame and 10.5" barrel really soak up the recoil.

This thing is so long I had to come up with a different case to put it in for range days-

My second favorite type of revolvers.  Love those Sporting Arms.  We need to incorporate them into our next DW day!

Charger Fan - thanks for remembering that image, went to find it and had to go to a back up drive...all is right now. A BIG photo tip - Always use you flash even outdoors, it takes out shadows and adds contrast. Unless you are getting a really bad glare, use your flash, if you have a setting adjustment, dial it down to one stop less that your actual exposure. This is what I did here.  As you can see, this gun has a bit of Barny. 1953.

Last summer I bought a Seville .357 Max, which I posted pics of here. Well I enjoy it so much I picked up another Seville Silhouette, in .375 USA (AKA .375 Supermag). Supposedly has only 50 rounds thru it, and it has the IHMSA stamp on the top strap. My first venture into the 375, I hope to set up and load a few so I can shoot it by the time the weather turns nicer.

I have the exact same gun, with the IHMSA logo on the top strap. It is an outstanding shooter. Between this one and it's twin in .357 SuperMag, I can't tell any difference in shooting them. Both seem to have identical recoil.

Wow Lonwolf, mine was built 10 guns ahead of yours! Although my .375 doesn't have the IHMSA logo on the top strap. Only my Seville .454 does.

Great job bringing your latest Seville home. I predict you will LOVE the way it shoots! This gun is easily one of my 3 favorites to shoot, it's freakin' sweet.occasion
