I don't like manual safeties but I love thumb rests. I bought a manual safety just to put my thumb on while shooting. I even installed a rest on my glock so I feel your pain. It should take 20 min with a small file to cut the frame notches for a safety. I say go for it if you are good with your...
A "failed" sale for glock is still a success for any other mfg. They will fly off the shelf. Not a fan of the 380 myself but I can see women flocking to this.
As for the R51.... looks like a genital wort you would find on a hi-point. Ugliest pistol I have seen in years.

Different indeed :D . I don't like rubber grip wraps or grip tape. Love the texture of paracord. I have an AR and a couple knifes wrapped in it and I have used them for year with great results, figured why not try to wrap a pistol. I'm very pleased with the results.
Being a new member and receiving some great help on an old revolver, I thought I'd throw something on the offering plate and contribute to the forum.
I made this video a couple months ago after playing around with paracord. I'm happy to report I've put about 500 rounds through the pistol...
I don't know the exact answer but I can say that it would take a billion and half 45ACP rounds to wear out barrel. Its such a slow low pressure round I would not worry about someone shooting it out. I'm sure its fine.
Thanks so much guys for all the help. I think I'll stay away from Numrich and work with the people on the list Hondo sent me.
I would rather not get a blued part but at this point I'm grasping for anything that will fit. If I did buy a blued part I'd strip it and restore the original heat...
Can anyone tell me which one of these I need?

Thanks guys for the help! So happy I finally have some answers to this revolver. Its been sitting in the safe waiting for me to get some time to work on it.
The SN is 25682. As you can see from the pictures, the "hammer notch" (thanks Hondo) looks like its been filed off. Not sure if the goal...
I inherited a 4 inch RP in 38 S&W. The pistol is in good condition but the hammer sear looks like it was bubba-smithed by someone using a cinder block and does not work in single action (hammer does not lock back). I'd really like to restore this pistol, buy some reloading dies for it and make...
