My 1980 custom revolver, a long barreled 25-2 in .45ACP. I second I saw it in a gun shop about 13 years ago I knew it was going home with me.

The work was done in Savannah back "in the day" by a gunsmith in Savannah who did this sort of stuff.

It has a truly amazing double action pull and a single action pull that breaks clean as glass at less than two pounds . . . both almost TOO light!

I wish I knew the name of the guy. He did a great job!

I later narrowed the super-wide, groove target trigger to smoothed, rounded and quite narrow for fast, double action use in tactical and bowling pin matches. I've won quite a few matches with this nimble, fast-from-the-holster wheelgun.

I also put on the new style cylinder latch. I HATE looking at it on that gun, but I'm left-handed and it greatly helped with fast reloading in matches.
