a few months ago we got a bag of parts
from Monsieur Boggs, S&W parts that he probably hornswoggled some blue haired old lady out of. Anyway, he wanted a S&W Model 28 in 357 Mag turned into a 500 S&W. I told him we couldn't do that but we could make it a model 57 in 41 Magnum. The gun had a lot of pits all over it from him carrying it in his underwear while checking his armadillo herd at night. We managed to turn it into a Model 57 for him. His red ramp front sight melted in our Black Chromex tank so we put a glow in the dark front sight insert in there for him in case one of the armadillos attacks him in the dark.He also wanted us to drill and tap the gun for the Leupold base and rings.The gun turned out pretty decent. Perfect for an Arkansas possum Bar-B-Q or for their monthly church Rooster neutering.
