Matt fixed a lot of ugly, polished and sealed the grip frame, case colored the frame, tuned the gun, and reblued it and added a nice set of Ruger grips. The Super Blackhawk (44 Magnum) was tuned, barrel cut to 5 inches, Fermin Garza front sight, Bowen rear sight, case color frame, polished and sealed grip frame, and reblued with walnut grips. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/33552/56FABB8E-A449-426A-9000-F741F6BE32E5-2044918.jpg View Quote |

Rescue Ruger New Model Blackhawk .357
Was given this revolver, it looked like it had been stored in a tackle box for a few years, but the bore and charge holes were GTG. The pitting was so bad I had to start clean up by draw filing. So after many hours of polishing and refinishing, a Bisley grip frame conversion, barrel shortened to 5.5”, banded front sight with brass rod bead, rust blue and case coloring. I was shooting for a “Bowenesque” look. Attached File Attached File |

That’s my plan I didn’t take before photos of the Blackhawk before conversion but I will do a quasi tutorial for the Marlin.
