[QUOTE="farpoint, post: 4370194, member: 1637"] Traded for a S&W Triple Lock in .455 Webley last year. Made for the British in 1916 for the war effort. I was taken by it. Took the gun and test fired it. Accurate...not. So I had a family member confident in gun repairs look at it. He found a dent in the barrel in front of the ejector rod lockup. Didn't want to spend several hundred dollars on a replacement or have to pay for dent removal, for I decided to shorten the barrel. Barrel is now around 3 3/8 inch. And to keep cost down, I opted to mount a Bradley Shotgun Bead. Pistol chambers the Colt .45 (long). Worked out well, because I've always wanted a shorter bbl N frame for conceal carry. I'm happy with the finished product.[ATTACH type="full"]532657[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
