Up for sale or trade is a 4013(single stack), and a 4013 converted to a 1013 by BM1's conversion of the barrel, magazines and adding a stouter spring. The guns worked perfectly but I never carried them so they need to find a new home. I am asking $1500 for both guns
(now $1300),
now 1200 for both guns,cerakoted 10mm is $750 and the stock 4013 is $450 , 5 converted magazines, springs.
I got both from forum member Bartman3562 and his thread about them is below.
I will list how many mags tomorrow. The single stack 4013 are very hard to find and the 10mm conversion project is presently not being done.
1013 sold pending funds, 4013 still available but it will go to the auction

My custom 1013, pics and range report, and a big thanks to Bad Man 1

One forum mmeber said :
"That is a well used 44 Double Action Frontier, with several modifications. These were made from 1886 to 1913, and over 15,000 were made total. Getting an accurate ship date is almost impossible, since these guns were slow movers and would sit in inventory for a long time before selling. I would only estimate that it would most likely been shipped in the early 1890s.
Value is a tough question, with a rough surface, filed front sight, replaced stocks, removed firing pin, and I think a modified standard rear sight as well. If it is not in working condition, it would probably only be worth whatever parts are left to sell. If sold as is, my guess would be $400."
Another member said "
" A .44 DA Frontier Model is in caliber 44-40, and would have a cylinder length of 1 9/16ths inches. If that's what your cylinder measures, then the gun was made on May 29, 1889. If the cylinder is only 1 7/16ths, then the gun is a .44DA Model in .44 Russian caliber, made Feb. 3, 1882, with wood stocks. "
