Convertibles in winter

[madcratebuilder]

sometimes sell cheap.

Found a good deal on this .357/9mm BH, couldn't pass it up. I need another SA Ruger like a hole in the head, BUT this well look good next to the Bisley .45 BH convertible.

Need to get to the range.

It would be nice to find another Birdshead grip frame.

Looks like it's nearly new, congrats.

Had one of those about ten years ago, mine shot all three calibers very well.

I'be been comtemplating one of those for a while now, but I have heard mixed reviews about the accuracy of 9mm out of them. Let us know how she shoots, would you? inquiring minds want to know!

I had one exactly like that. 4 5/8" barrel, .357/9mm. Shot .357s and .38s very well, did not like lead 9mms at all. It would keyhole them. Shot jacketed 9mms ok though.

9mms in that heavy revolver was like shooting a Single-Six .22lr.

Naw . . . I don't like to have anything to do with convertables in the winter . . . too durn cold riding around with the top down!

Nice looking shooting irons though! You're going to really enjoy those! Congrats on your find!

Drool!!!

Very nice. I would just keep the 9mm on hand for SHTF scenario's and have a ball with .38s and .357s.

I like the introduction to the thread.

+1 on it!

If you are still looking for another birdshead grip, IIRC they are instock at either Brownells (or possibly Midway). They sell them as just the frame, so you'll need to switchover any of the shared components and buy the other parts too. That gun looks either NIB or LNIB. I hope you enjoy it. The 9mm cylinder is cool to me because of how cheap you can shoot it.
