Nice... Thanks for posting that.
Nice article!
JT helped me put together this .357 years back:
It had originally come with a longer barrel and different grip frame. Mr. Taffin gave me the barrel and frame shown on the gun, and showed me how to swap frames.
Now it is my "Taffin gun".
Externally it looks rough, internally it is G2G and shoots straight.
While nowhere near as cool as a registered magnum, it is still a fun little piece, and due to the backstory, one that I will not get rid of.

Interesting he's not aware of the pre-Match Champion half-lug GP100s, and no mention of the 5-inch Lipsey's specials. But I do like how his six-inch GP gets it done with the Gold Dots!

Not another dime.
Mr. Taffin is obviously a gentleman of discerning taste
Can’t wait for part III.
I always go to JT’s articles first. A first rate gentleman.
