Normally I like to keep my revolvers simple but this one called for something special. I think Snake Plisskin would approve. Those Hogue G10 grips feel pretty good, can't wait to actually shoot it!

I’m assuming the “fixture” under the barrel is a laser sight? Did the additions add much weight Punkin? As Bushy said, it’s al gussied up. It looks good, but also looks heavy. I want one.

I think that's a light so Pumpkinslinger can see in the dark.

Could the other be a TV screen?

Or maybe it’s a sapling finder/sight so Punkin can keep his eye in when shooting.

It's gotten hard to see those branches since the eye problems! Need all the help I can get! Light, red dot, no laser.

I don't have a real accurate scale handy but it weighs about 2.5 pounds, empty. Adding up the specified weight of the stuff; gun = 35 oz, light = 3 oz and sight = 1.5 oz. Or 1.13 kg, if you prefer.

It's a Frankensmith!
Smiths have always looked king of elegantly plain but that one looks like it has stuff pasted on it to improve? its appearance.
The important thing is that it works for its intended use by its intended user.
Guns are, after all is said and done, personal weapons.

Bushy, you can always dress your colt up with the same gear, you know in case Pumpkin want to keep his.

There ya go!
If you do that to the SAA will it still fit in the holster? I do know a company that makes custom holsters... just being helpful. Wink
