they are nice… you got one?

Of course, and I've put more than a few pics of it up. Mines an 83 Premier 6" 357, and I wouldn't consider it built like a truck.....more like a tank.
Really happy to see you picked one of those up, champion. You will not be disappointed in the least

they started with a block of steel and said… Remove only what you have to! lol

I just bought some .454 from a member! I should have a range report soon

Here’s my 10 inch FA 44 Magnum. It shipped from their factory in 1990. Love to benchrest and shoot paper at 100 yards.

I always wanted a 4¼" 97 in .44 Special with ivory micarta.

Here are two Model 97s in 45 colt. A 4 1/4" Oct bbl and a 3 1/2" round butt.

Here's the 4.25" oct bbl M93 .45 Colt -- for some reason I can't edit out the top picture which is a 5.5" M97 22/22mag

Dang those are pretty! Thanks for sharing. I love the short barrel octagon, well, love them all.

I think it’s ugly as sin. But dang is it smooth! yes, it’s a older cone bushing with the hole on the side. But I need to wear this bad boy. Was on consignment from a old retired military brass who check all the option box and never shot any of his guns.

show off your Freedom Arms people. Don’t forget about Guns Magazine (November) on the 97 with the white grips! FA guns are becoming popular with the millennials!

$3000 price tag.. but 60 days Layaway is a BONUS

I'd love to have one, I've had many calibers over the years but I've settled on .357 Mag and 44 Mag for revolvers (except my lone S&W .500). I've got my Rugers and I've had a few BFR's and I know the next step up is a FA. Pricey for sure but at the same time, if you can resist the urge to only have one (per caliber) then they should last ten lifetimes of use.

I handled the BFR and it’s very close to FA’s. FA is just tighter and heavier

thinking the same! then gave it engraved and do the flame screws!

I still think Freedom Arms are in the not too pretty side. Remind me of a Tesla Cyber Truck

The FA is going to be lighter than a BFR. The FA frame is actually a smidge smaller than a large frame Blackhawk. The BFR is larger than both.

Now that is UGLY!

 

[Rock185]

I don't think the FA guns are ugly at all. I may be just a little biased though. I've owned a FA .454/.45 ACP for about 25 years now. Finest revolver I've ever owned.

That Cyber Truck though

 

[Japle]

My only FA is a .2LR mini-revolver I bought many decades ago.
Haven't fired it in 20+ years, but it's surprisingly accurate. I once won $20 by hitting a full-size military silhouette at 100 yds with a cylinder full.
Just aimed at the top of the head and they dropped into the torso.
