It called me, it really did.

FA83 454 Casull with cylinders for 45 ACP and 45 Colt. Slightly used, FA holster included:

Mrs Rodentwoman must be really, really nice or totally oblivious. Either way, sounds like you picked a winner.

Nice shooter!

I have to admit that I'm slightly jealous. Nice.

You lucky beady eyed rodent!! Did you get it cheap from some recoil shy guy who could never get used to the recoil? And Premier grade too?? You lucky bastage!! I hope you eat all the green sour apple SweeTarts I got for you at Fleet Farm and fall over dead!! Gee, I wonder if a FA 45ACP cylinder can handle 45 Super loads??? :roll: :roll: :roll:

BTW - The 45 Colt cylinder is to prevent a ridge of gunk from building up in a 454 Casull cylinder when shooting 45 Colt, and then when you switch to 454 Casull, the ridge holds the case mouth shut when you pull the trigger and the pressures go through the roof.

Did I mention I really hate your ratty guts for all the cool guns you buy?? &^*()&#@#$&*()&&^%$#@&*()
