Long ago I started appreciating shorter revolver barrels and have been looking at BFR .44's but it appears as if the few that are made for dealers are snapped up right away. So I camped out on a gun sale site and no fewer than THREE dealers had six 5.5" barrel models in stock. The dealer I got it from had the Bisley frame with white grips.
So, I hit the BUY button and it came in today.
Delighted is putting it mildly finding it's actually a 4 1/2" barrel despite the box saying it's 5 1/2"! It seems like somewhere along the line someone is having problems measuring barrel lengths at MR? :-) Anyway, I have a Freedom Arms model 353 (.357) and model 97 (17HMR) and this BFR takes a back seat to neither.
