AJD;
Good afternoon to you sir, hopefully this first day of August has been treating you well - other than the fact it's August already!
The rib was a Poly Choke rib that I spied in the same small gun shop in Oroville, WA where I bought that Ruger and a Blackhawk before it. Again this was back in the days when we Canucks could wander down across the medicine line and spend our hard earned money with impunity. My goodness did we ever do that.....
Anyway I've always liked the Python look and spied the rib kit when I had whatever US cash it cost me that day burning a hole in my pocket.
I stuck it on with the original front sight and it just didn't look right to my eye, so I grabbed something from my metal pile - maybe some key stock? - and made up the front sight I thought it needed.
The grips are at least the 3rd or maybe 4th set I've made up for that revolver and I had some Pachmayr ones too for awhile, but they got traded for Walmart jerky to some guy in Alaska.
Anyway sir, that's the story of the rib on that revolver.
All the best to you this weekend sir, hopefully its a good one for you.
Dwayne
