Some of the -5's can have really large throats. I had a 4" in 45 Colt that a .458" pin gauge would drop right thru, that was the largest pin gauge I had, so who knows how big it was....

Bryan is a great guy to deal with, he wanted to buy an item that I had for sale, followed up with good communication and proper payment. As well as a really good guy to chat with, you can't ask for more!! Thanks again, Bryan!

You guys are going to make mom and dad pull the car over....

And minimum wage back then was about 3 bucks an hour.....

Agree, plus the Pach's are open on the front and not the rear, eliminating the pinch that my hand gets from between the grip and grip frame from shooting magnums.
