A gun show friend, who is the sheriff of a North Georgia county, brought a 6" full under lug 44 Mag to me Sunday. Frame, barrel, cylinder assembly, side plate (no screws) and forward lock up (in front of ejector rod, and nothing else. Someone told him I had a lot of parts so he asked me if I could get it back to being a functioning gun. I told him I could get it close. The only thing I don't have is the cylinder bolt and plunger/spring, rear sight and grip pin (bottom of grip frame).
He doesn't care what it looks like as long as it shoots. Well, my strain screw and round head side plate screws are nickel, thumb latch and flat head plate screw are blue. It's about put together so I can check the timing. I'll have to take the hammer out to open the cylinder, but that's no big deal. Oh yea, I had the new style front plate/yoke screw but it's blue as well. Some kinda' weird pinto!!
I guess I'll get back to work. If anyone has a N frame cylinder bolt with plunger and spring to donate or sell, let me know. Grip pin. The rear sight is going to cost him. All I have are K frames.
I forgot to mention, it has an unfluted cylinder. Not sure what they call it.
