Beautiful piece with a fantastic pedigree.
Congrats!

Yea, it doesn’t quite lock right on that cylinder and will throw you off a little when you are just trying to work smooth straight through presses.
This gun has had a ton of rounds shot through it, including very high velocity stuff. At this point it is just going to be preserved as a historical investment piece.
Fascinating, thanks for sharing!
A Fitz Special something showed up at a local gun show a couple years ago, it looked like it had been black cerakoted, and the only marking on it was a Broad Arrow, which was intriguing...
Interesting. I was asking because I have a Security Six that seems to be off a little on one chamber. I’m not sure if I want to get it fixed or sell it at full disclosure to fund an SP-101.
In any case, thank you for sharing this with us. That revolver just looks fun, and with its history, is all the more awesome.
No question that is a piece of revolver history, and a rare one at that. Kudos to the OP!
But...I have a question since there seems to be a lot of enthusiasm for the cut-off trigger guard of the Fitz guns. I've been shooting DA revolvers since I went to the police academy in the summer of '73. I have large hands but I've never once caught my index/trigger finger on the front bow of the trigger guard. Someone please explain the utility of this rather radical alteration to DA revolvers?
