Wow! Finally a great, full side view of the Bapty revolver and nobody's even looked at it! Get the pic in Star Wars Insider and look at the front sight at a slight angle, in the right light. The bluing is worn on the sight blade and in the pics it looks different than it really is, due to the light background.

Wow, Lee Keppler the man. how ya doin. Hey you woldn't have a link to that pic your ralking about would ya. I also agree, that a nice side profile pic. The ramp and blade are much smaller than I've thought in the past.
Also how can I contact this Jack Devore, does he do conversions. I had one done but it could have been better. I've allready got another barrel for another try. Isn't authentic 1917 as it doesn't have the correct markings but I can live with it.

I didn't mean to be confusing. The pic in the magazine that you get at the store is 2nd generation, and is a clearer rendition than the version posted above. You can reach Jack at 928-600-7887
