picked up this beauty at first I didnt realize it was a fixed barrel, after taking apart to clean I noticed that the cutout in the hammer for the spring is different and seems to be beefier at the top. Also the rear sight is wider then my Monson guns....Always trying to learn....thinking I need to find a set of DW gripper grips for it

Thanks al

That's a fine looking well proportioned revolver. I wonder why they didn't make more 3" barrels. I've only seen a few.

Thanks for sharing photos of your great looking 3" FB!

I have a pair of those myself. The blued one came to me first, the stainless a couple months later. Then I made them a nice place to sleep. smile

Thanks! smile As far as I know, all the FB guns came with Hogue grips originally. Of course, you can also swap them for any other grips that are for small frame DW's, if you desire.
