Got my 1860 and my 1961 back from the Goon today. They look awesome with their new, shiny case hardened screws. They feel unbelievably slick. Actions are like room temp butter and the hammers are soooo light. They can be fanned and or dry fired and each one has an extra cylinder tuned to the respective revolvers. Really happy to have them back. Its weird knowing how much work went into them and they still look like they just came out of the box. Just looking at them, no one would ever know how special they are.The earlier picture of the 1860 front sight doesn't do it justice. It looks simply MAHHVELOUS!! I like the half penny profile much better than the original. Great job Mike and thanks again.

Excellent! I just got my '51 Navy back from him yesterday:

It is so smooth! Hopefully I can get to the range this Saturday to test the improvements. :)
 
Nice looking gun. Did you refinish the grips?
No, they came that way from the factory. They are very nice.

I shot this gun today, it was so fun! I am still having misfires with it though. I'm convinced my hammer spring is just too light. I also need to get a better set of nipples and experiment with caps.
 
Treso nipples and Remington # 10s. Mike did my C-Series and the light hammer spring has zero effect on mine. it's 100 % every time.
