This is the one. Durakoted and the hardness removed from the hammer and the trigger by polishing. The parts you sold me are going to go into this gun, when I can get around to finding the right smith. Local guy... meh. Thinking cylinder and slide. Image below from TJ Parmele - Image Title: photos Image Info: This is a slightly different version of a Smith and Wesson 1917. Barrel has been changed to something akin to most likely chambered in .45 Colt. The surface also looks to have been re-finished in a black oxide. Trigger is ok. The Double Action lockwork needs smoothing up and I am probably going to replace the stocks. Larger image available! Click image to see it. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Now which one is this again? It's pretty good looking. Certainly not the Duracoat one so a different one. Is this the one you bought the parts for? Image below from TJ Parmele - Image Title: photos Image Info: This is a slightly different version of a Smith and Wesson 1917.
