Well here they are, freshly returned from an action job by Cody Conagher and ready to shoot.  Smooth as silk!

Fantastic !

I'm really glad it worked out for you, and that you chose to be as authentic as you could. I'm sure that you're relieved to finally acquire a pair of these fine revolvers after such a long wait.

The guns look great and so does that holster combo.

By the way; is the cylinder pin a two stage, and are you going to replace them or keep them as they are?  Yes, you could simply cut the cylinder pins down as others have noted in another link, but that looks very ugly and is not authentic. It is the really cheap way to do it. Not trying to tell you what to do, but I know that you like the idea of it being right.

General, I am not going to do anything to these shooting irons other than what has been done.  I had Cody Conagher work his magic on them and they are smooth as silk.  I like them as they are.

Aren't Generals allowed a little leeway in their uniforms? Custer, Patton? ;)

Great rig there, General.
