About two years ago, I traded an old Ruger Blackhawk .45LC to my BIL for a brand new-NOS SKS from China that his Dad had bought a bunch of waaaay back when they were really cheap. It had never been fired.
It was nothing special, just a 4-5/8" blued version with some faux Ivory grips I got off of Fleabay and put finger grooves in like John Wayne's revolver in his movies. Got it at the Spokane gun show quite a few years ago for $290.
Soooo about two weeks ago I texted him and told him I wanted my revolver back and I'd give him $300 for it. I really like that old gun! He said he wasn't going to be back in town for who knew how long.
So I got a bit antsy...……….…..
I ordered the steel ejector rod housing last night. It's on back order so I guess I'll just wait patiently. Yeah right!
Anyway, I've a bunch of 200 grain round nose lead bullets leftover from my CAS days. I've over 1000 of them so I guess I can do some reloading. The ones in the picture are some that I loaded up in some Duke brass.
