    Ruger 45 LC Bisley

    This was built for me by John Gallagher back in the 90's. He shaped the stag grips for me too.

    .243 Against 1/4 Steel Plate

    I went to the range today to mess around with my .375 Model 94 and my Interarms .243. I took along my 1/4 steel buffalo target that I use for rimfire shooting. With the rimfires I shoot away and at the end of the day hit the buffalo with some white spray paint and it's as good as new. Not so...

    Best 45 colt combat revolver
