Kind of Blued
Member
It was my idea in the "Dream Revolver" thread.
It's a blued .357 Model 49 Bodyguard but with a 3" barrel.
I was imagining it being color case hardened, and get some grips made out of a light exotic wood, like box elder burl, but that would be done later.
As far as I know, the only .357 J-frames are either stainless (M60) or Scandium. Was there ever a blued steel .357 J-frame, or is a blued gun weaker than a stainless gun?
I wish I was good enough with photoshop to make a picture of it...
It may be a dumb question; I'm still baffled by the vast number of S&W models. Is there something close? Or would one have to piece it together? Would it have to be a .38?
