Also shown is my first-ever S&W - a new 625-7 MG in .45 Colt that my wife bought me 8/02. I already had Foley, AL's knifemaker Fred Vollmer's 'Fred's Utility Knife', they make a nice trio.



The gate won't pass the larger OD rim of the Schofield round, otherwise it would have illegally held over ten such rounds when new - you can feed then one at a time. Never a hiccup feeding a myriad of .45 Colts, almost all homebrew. Fun shooter - most folks will pick off a shotgun clay at 110yd with that tang sight. My only CF rifle for years. An odd plastic cylinder did get left out from under the magazine tube - beneath the spring. Now it holds 12 rounds. I kept said rod 'in case' the laws change again, of course.

Nice rig! I've got a bunch of leverguns, but none in 45 Colt. If I ever get one, I think it'll be an octagon barrelled Rossi 92.
