That is a good trade. Love the ruger single actions. Beautiful pistol!
Let me make a short, open, blanket comment. There are no good guns. There are no bad guns. Any gun in the hands of a bad man is a bad thing. Any gun in the hands of a descent person is no threat to anyone--- except bad people. -- Charleton Heston

Guns are not good, they are not evil. Save those descriptions for the people holding the firearm. -- Unknown

1937 Izhevsk

1939 Tula (laminate stock)
And many other firearms :D

There is nothing about the Judge that has ever thrilled me enough to consider buying one. Everything about your Ruger makes me :Drool1: :Drool1: :attn:

I was just talking to my son about paying attention and school work. Luckily this not knowing or paying attention paid off in my favor. I do believe you are right. It has the etching on the cylinder. :vconfused: :vconfused: so Bisley?

You can tell by the shape of the grip frame, more curved across the back. Styled after the Colt Bisley revolver. If you get a picture of a Blackhawk, and a Bisley side by side you can see it. They are my favorite, along with the Vaquero.

Guess it would help if I read the writing on the cylinder too. Had Bisley all around it. :chuckles:

Nice trade! 8-) I didn't do as well when I sold my Dad's Bisley Vaquero .44 Mag. :vsad: Had to give him my first H&R .223 Handi-Rifle to placate him.
