I think they were talking about the 97 cylinder being shorter than the Blackhawk.
VERY nice guns you have there. I have the same front sight on my FA .41 Magnum...FAs should put that one on instead of that stupid hard to see ramp.

I had a reading of about 1.625 OAL on the 83 cylinder. Recessed rims? The Ruger 45 is 1.700, plus the .050 rim is 1.750, the custom ones I have to check.
The 83 was first right wasn't it? Haven't built revolvers for a while. I'll checks facts better next time.
