WITHDRAWN Ruger Old Army modified for target work

[Robin Henderson]

Serial number indicates a 1994 manufacture date. The cylinder has been shortened and the barrel set back to accommodate the set back. The chambers hold 20 grs 3fg powder and a .457 ball. No filler is required. Stop screw installed on the trigger. The original ROA sights have been replaced with excellent Bowen Classic Arms Corp. adjustable rear sight. Notice also the color cased frame and ball seater along with a skeletonized hammer. $875 + shipping.

That's different.

1911 rear sight on an ROA.

I like that.

You have the same pic of the barrel in both of your ruger listings. Which gun does it actually go with?

You are right sir. My apologies and the post has been edited to show the correct barrel.

who did the custom pistolsmithing work?

Tom Marker of Franklin, TN. He was an excellent gunsmith. Had his own business and called it Lock, Stock, and Barrel. Most of his work was on modern firearms but he also liked muzzleloaders.
