My neighbor has gotten into revolvers and he fell in love with an Old New Service that had seen much better days. Long story short he sent the Colt NS in pieces to Diagonal Road Gunshop to let Andy Horvath resurrect it. He wanted a belly gun and Andy fulfilled his end of the bargain nicely.
Shortened the gripframe and made walnut grips to match
Reamed the cylinder and bobbed a 45 Colt barrel to 2.2"
Fabricated a front sight
Timed and tuned the action
Bobbed the hammer
New parkerizing on the firearm
Went from parts box to finished product in 13 weeks
Chambered in 45ACP
Gonna put the first rounds through it tomorrow
