I have a lot of sentimental value for my old beast the way it is, and I just can't chop on it. We made it through some serious social encounters and I have to respect that. Kinda like gittin' use to a wife I guess.

Seein' that good lookin' gun you've got has got the juices flowin' agin. I guess I better start lookin' for a doggy old 58 and see what I can do.

NICE gun Doc...just the wrong caliber.... ;-)

Like IGGY said, a round butt 3" 58 would be like having a Model 13 3" RB on steroids. I have a 58 that this could be done to it is just finding the right smith to do the round butt correctly.
