Project Idea #1

Well I thought that I'd outline what I plan to do for my target revolver. To start out I will be using a Smith and Wesson K-Frame .38 special, more than likely the model 10. Then a Clark Customs match grade PPC 6" bull barrel will be purchased. Then this barrel will under go some minor changes.... can you say fluting! Major trigger work will follow as well as the forcing cone, cylinder, new grips, drilled and tapped for scope base, and topped off with a red dot sight. I'm toying with the idea of changing the cylinder over to use moon clips. We will see as the project progresses along. I think that this sounds like a great recipe for fun and accuracy.

So here I am up front looking all happy to be at the ISU Law Enforcement Graduation. Yes the dude in the uniform staring into space is me.The lady sitting behind me with the smile on her face is one of my good friends. Would you believe that she flipped my ear during one of the speeches! She has me to thank for her great shooting skills though!

Welcome

Welcome to this new adventure that I'm undertaking. I hope that this blog will be fun, exciting, and informative, but mostly fun. I have a fascination with Firearms and the older Jeeps. I'm a Gunsmith but not a mechanic and I love to tinker. I will post firearm projects that I'm working on. For starters I have in the plans to build a target revolver with a 6" fluted barrel, a .308 sniper rifle, and one for fun, the 6.5 Grendel!
