so it can't be fired with the blade folded in? that's a safety plus.

Words fail. That is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.

It can be fired blade in or out. With the blade in the trigger isnt quite as comfy.

Very pretty, but my hands sting just thinking about lighting off a .45 in that. I like my pachmeyer grips too much.

Oh yeah? Well does your fancy handled pistol have a 6" folding knife blade?

Bruce, words fail me , that thing is beautiful, art, engineering =awesome!

I think Mr. Pachmyr has never shot a big bore black powder pistol. They don't jump and bark like a modern smokeless, it's more of a solid quick push, and a naturally curved stock lets it roll up controllably, on a black powder single action six shooter the roll is just enough to put the hammer spur under your lifted thumb for your followup cocking. The only things I don't like about black powder are the obscuring cloud, and the necessity of the washdown after you're all done.

If it can't be done with bailing wire it ain't worth doing at all.

Your craftsmanship should be on display in the Smithsonian. You have created a work of art that is absolutely stunning.
My compliments to you for such a visually appealing, graceful, and tastefully elegant presentation.

Can I be you when I grow up?

Bruce,

I haven't been around the forums much for the last few years and I've obviously missed so much. Especially when it comes to your Cut-n-Shoots. All I can say is WOW!

One question, and please forgive me if you've already answered it a hundres times... How long does it take you to make one of these? I'm sure that they are all different, but based on how long it takes me to make a simple knife I couldn't make an ugly one of those in less than 5 years.

My hat is off Sir!

Rick

P.S. Purposefully posting for two reasons...
1- I'm past due with my compliments.
2- This thread deserves to be on the first page of this forum!
