My pair of Richards Type II's
« on: September 03, 2008, 05:39:58 PM »
Finally got my camera back so I thought I would share a picture of my two Type II's. Hope to shoot them this Saturday at the monthly shoot. I am still trying to decide whether to put plain ivory grips or with some type of carving on them.

Nice! I'd like to get a pair of those in .45 Schofield. I'd go with checkered ivory grips.

Sorry I am not a very good picture taker. They have the longer ejector rod then the originally came out with. Is the the correct length you are talking about, Seth.

The longer ejector rod IS the correct one.

Had out for the first time together in our monthly shoot. They shot great.  Hit everytime as long as the idiot behind them did everything correctly. Had forgotten though the first one I purchased the ejector does not align up to allow ejecting the empties when the cylinder is in the lock up mode. I have to turn it and stop just before it clicks. Is there anything that can be done?

Nope. The originals are the same way. Enjoy the history.  ;) ;D
