The barrel stays where it should and the revolver shoots tiny groups at 7 yards. Yep, I'm happy - good-to-go.

Good looking gun! Turned out nice!AndyC wrote: Fri Sep 07, 2018 4:59 pm Took it to the range today with some factory ammo and some handloads I made from 158gr home-cast Lee bullets. The DA trigger is typical Ruger - the weight is all over the place during the pull - but SA is 4lbs exactly and almost perfectly crisp (I can feel a tiny *snick* feeling just before it fires, so I can actually "stage" it).

Well, without pics I may as well have shot the groups for you!
Is that Garland?

Ha ha! I moved to the Temple area about 15yrs ago, but I still remember that dirty beige/puke yellow colored carpet on the benches!!

I had missed the completion posts. I was originally cringing at this build but must admit, I like the finished product. Very unique handgun you have there. Nice job on it.

Great article!AndyC wrote: Mon Sep 24, 2018 8:23 pm I bought the Dec 1979 Guns magazine (which first brought the Couger to the world), took photos and made a PDF:
